Difference Between Feta Cheese and Goat Cheese

• Sheep and goat. The feta is mostly sheep milk. Goat cheese is made with goat milk.
• Of course, Feta has a nuttier, tangy, and salty taste. Most of it is brined in the curing process.
• Both kinds of cheese are a great source of vitamin B. However, feta is a better source of vitamins B6 and B12.
• Goat cheese is crumblier cheese.

Tips and how to make this Zucchini Feta Cheese Quiche to perfection

• I removed a couple of lengthwise strips of zucchini skin. This removed some bitterness and added a decorative touch to the dish. This step is optional.
• When shopping for zucchini, ensure they are all the same size to cook in uniform.
• The feta cheese crumbles well with the eggs.
• Greek feta is in a block form. I found it easier to work with and with a lot more flavor.
• I recommend beating the eggs and feta cheese together.
• In the recipe, I used medium size eggs. However, If you have large eggs, please use three instead.
• Use a deep dish pie tart for baking this wonderful zucchini recipe.
• When using a pie pan, ensure the borders are high enough for the egg-milk or cream mixture not to overflow.
• You can substitute the heavy cream with whole milk. Add a fit of flour (1 tablespoon) to thicken the cream.
• Protect the crust of the quiche with a pie cover or aluminum foil.
• Pre-cook the pie crust according to the packaging direction. Do the same if you choose to make your pie shell.
• Grease the pie dish well or it will stick. Use heavy cream instead of milk. You can make this a crustless quiche. Add a bit more flour so it will solidify.
• Place the pie dish on a cookie sheet in the middle of the rack to eliminate unwanted spilling in your oven.
• I have a regular oven; use your oven manufacturing direction to adjust the cooking time.

Please wait 15 minutes before eating it, as the cooked zucchini can burn you hot.
