Mini Quiche Lorraine with Così Com'è Datterini Tomatoes

This mini quiche Lorraine with sweet datterini tomatoes from Così Com'è puts an Italian twist on the quiche typical of French cuisine. In single portions, a shortcrust pastry is filled with eggs, savory pancetta, sweet red datterini tomatoes, fresh cream and grated Parmesan for a balance of sweet and intense flavors and a unique creaminess. Pair it with a glass of Bianco Friulano Superiore from the Friuli Grave DOC area.
