Sun-Dried Tomato and Leek Quiche
This quiche marries the deep, umami richness of sun-dried tomatoes with the sweet, silky caramel of leeks, all nestled in a nutty, tender crust. The pastry—made with pastry flour, pine nuts, and almonds—adds a subtle crunch and earthy depth, while a touch of honey in the leeks lends just enough brightness to balance the dish. Baked until golden and set, it’s a versatile masterpiece that holds its shape beautifully, whether served warm for brunch or chilled for a light supper. With layers of savory, sweet, and nutty notes, it’s a dish worth savoring any time of day.
