I love tarts and quiches and I love mushrooms. This week, wanting a change from my usual mushroom quiche, I came across a recipe from chef Ottolenghi, which inspired this one.

The tarragon and dill pairing goes beautifully with mushrooms and is what gives this tart its original flavor. The classic quiche filling (eggs + cream) is replaced here by a delicious mushroom cream (which, by the way, can be made dairy-free). I’ll let you discover it!
