- 2/3 cup shredded Gruyere or Swiss Cheese, divided
- 1/2 cup minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 4 eggs, lightly beaten
- 3/4 cup half and half
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg

Cut 2 in. from the top of each asparagus spear; set tops aside. Cut stem ends into 3/4 in. pieces. In a small saucepan, bring water to a boil Add the 3/4 in. asparagus pieces; cover and boil for 3-4 minutes. Drain and immediately place asparagus in ice water. Drain and pat dry.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out pastry into a 13-in. circle. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of an ungreased 11 in tart pan with removable bottom; trim edges. Place the blanched asparagus, 1/3 cup cheese and pasley in crust. In a small bowl, combine the eggs, cream, salt, cayenne and nutmeg; pour into crust. Arrange asparagus tops over egg mixture.
