Roasted Garlic and Tomato Savoury Custard
Let the aromas of garlic and herbs in this firm crustless quiche entice brunch guests to the table. Or serve wedges as a first course or with cold ham or pork tenderloin. Provolone is a pasta filata, or "stretched-curd," cheese shaped like a large bowling pin or sausage and sometimes encased in rope or twine. Like mozzarella, it is repeatedly stretched and heated during processing to give it a stringy texture.
