How to Make Smoked Salmon And Asparagus Quiche

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon sugar, and ½ teaspoon onion salt.
  3. In a measuring cup, whisk together ½ cup vegetable oil and ½ cup milk until creamy.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a soft dough forms.
  5. Pat the dough into the bottom and sides of an ungreased 9x1 ¼ inch pie plate or 9x1 ½ inch quiche dish.
  6. Evenly distribute 4 ounces of smoked salmon over the crust.
  7. Cut off the bottom third of each asparagus spear (about 1 pound asparagus).
  8. Set aside the cut-off top portions of the asparagus spears.
  9. Finely chop the asparagus ends.
  10. Sprinkle the chopped asparagus over the smoked salmon.
  11. Evenly sprinkle ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese over the asparagus.
  12. In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, ½ cup heavy cream, 1 tablespoon fresh dill, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.
  13. Slowly pour the egg mixture over the quiche ingredients.
  14. Arrange the reserved asparagus tips in a spoke-like pattern on top of the quiche.
  15. Bake for 15 minutes.
  16. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F (165°C). Continue baking for 40-45 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  17. If the crust edges start to brown too much after 10-15 minutes, cover them with strips of aluminum foil.
  18. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
