I love quiches. They are a super versatile dish that can be served at brunch, lunch, or dinner, as an appetizer or main dish paired with a bowl of soup and a green salad. You can eat them hot, warm, or at room temperature\u2026 What can be better than that?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I make spinach quiche, ham and asparagus quiche<\/a>, salmon quiche, leek quiche, and one of my favorite: caramelized onion quiche with fresh thyme…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Secret for a Flavorful Quiche Crust<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not only I do it with sweet Vidalia onions, that I saut\u00e9 in butter until they caramelize while infusing them with the subtle flavor of fresh thyme. There is one more secret.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Vidalia<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

To add more complexity to my quiche crust, I let it cool down and cover the bottom with grated Parmesan cheese once the crust is baked. Then I add the saut\u00e9ed onions to finally add the mixture of eggs, heavy cream, and more Parmesan. Trust me: the Parmesan addition brings the crust to the next level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One more thing about the crust recipe: it\u2019s made with the same pie or quiche dough<\/a> that I\u2019ve been using forever. I only adjusted the ingredient quantities, so there is no waste. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cooking Seasonally<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Those who know me know how much I miss growing my own produce and how much I love cooking seasonally. Well, Vidalia onion season is in full swing right now. In fact, they are in season during the spring and summer months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Are Vidalia Onions?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Vidalia onions are the sweetest, whitest onions ever. These beautiful pristine onions are hand cultivated and picked by around 100 registered growers. They only grow them in the low sulfur soils of 20 South Georgia counties. The mild winters of Southern Georgia contribute to the unique sweetness of the wonderful Vidalia crop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last but not least, Vidalia onions add sweetness and crispness to any dish, and my onion quiche is no exception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
