Parmesan quiche with apples and speck – recipe from “Fotogrammi di zucchero”

2018-04-06 Food blogger Antonella of Fotogrammi di Zucchero made us a very spring-like recipe, perfect for a picnic on the grass.

“An unusual savoury pie, the kind you might be sceptical about until you actually try it: an apple pie, but salt, sweet and slightly tart, balanced by flavourful speck ham, with a rich pastry crust made with parmesan cheese and top quality extra virgin olive oil.”

Her secret? Cutting the apples extra-thin, so that they cook completely and dissolve in the mouth, with a speck that is not too salty.
Antonella made this recipe on a SapienStone kitchen countertop with the Calacatta natural texture.

It’s lovely to look at (and to photograph; I fell in love with it!) and very useful because it’s scratch-proof, stain-proof, and resistant to acids and heat:  I cut the apples and onions on it, squeezed the lemon and kneaded the dough for the quiche right on the countertop!”

If you’d like to know more about the recipe, you’ll find it on her blog Fotogrammi di Zucchero.

Enjoy your reading – and enjoy your pie!
