Beautiful Failure

Sometimes even your best shot at a recipe fails. It can be pretty and tasty but still wrong. This was a quiche that turned out quite watery which was too bad. We have ideas for trying again.
There are several factors that can make a quiche watery: too much water in the vegetables, too high of cooking temperature, too much milk for the number of eggs and bad karma. I think I needed to dry the asparagus out more* prior to assembling the quiche and used less asparagus in the mixture. I’ll also up the eggs to milk ratio and throw in a tablespoon of flour next time through.
Until I get the recipe nailed down, there are pictures to enjoy.
Asparagus, goat cheese and caramelized onion quiche.
*next time I’ll saute the tips in oil not steam them and I’ll not chill the stalk slivers in cold water after sauteing them.
