How to Make

  • FOR CRUST

  • Step 1: Combine flour, butter and cream cheese in a food processor or place flour in a bowl and cut in butter and cream cheese by hand, being careful to not over-work it, working quickly so as not to melt butter with warmth of hands. Form dough into a ball. Chill dough for at least 30 minutes (can also be made a day ahead).

  • Step 2: Roll out onto a floured surface to fit a 9" quiche or pie pan.

  • Step 3: Fit pie crust in pan and refrigerate until ready to use. (Can be refrigerated a day ahead, making sure to cover with plastic wrap).

  • FOR FILLING

  • Step 4: Preheat oven 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

  • Step 5: Sprinkle breadcrumbs over bottom of unbaked crust.

  • Step 6: In a medium bowl, mix Parmesan and Swiss cheese. Distribute the cheeses evenly over breadcrumbs.

  • Step 7: Arrange salmon over cheeses.

  • Step 8: In a bowl, mix eggs, half-and-half, salt and pepper until blended and pour over contents in pie shell.

  • Step 9: Sprinkle chopped dill over top.

  • Step 10: Bake in middle of oven until quiche is set and golden brown, about 35 - 40 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, decorate with dill sprigs and serve.
