Instructions

  1. Place the puff pastry in a non-greased quiche pan (28 - 30 cm, a cake pan is also possible), form an edge. Pierce the dough and bake in a preheated oven at 175 ° C for about 6 - 8 minutes.
  2. Wash the rocket and herbs and shake dry. Cut hard, long stalks from the rocket. Put some leaves aside. Roughly chop the rocket and cut the herbs into small pieces. Cut the salmon into cubes.
  3. Mix the ricotta with the egg, egg yolk and whipped cream. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg and fold in the rocket, herbs and diced salmon.
  4. Spread the mixture on the base and sprinkle with grated hard cheese. Halve the cherry tomatoes and top the quiche with them. Bake for at least 30 minutes at 180 ° C (the height of the quiche is crucial), then sprinkle with the remaining rocket leaves. Serve warm.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
