COUNTRY SALMON PIE

     SALMON-PIE - A salmon and cheese pie flavored with sour
     cream

     This is a country cousin to the quiche-even real men will
     eat it.  My mother says this is called "country" salmon pie
     because it uses canned salmon, which is the only kind you
     can catch out in the country.

INGREDIENTS (Serves 8)
          PARMESAN CRUST
     1 1/2 cups
               flour
     1/2 cups  grated parmesan cheese
     3/4 cups  shortening
     3-4 Tbsp  water
          FILLING
     15 1/2 oz canned salmon (1 large can)
     1         large onion, diced
     1         garlic clove, minced
     2 Tbsp    butter
     2 cups    sour cream
     4         eggs
     1 1/2 cups
               gruyere cheese, shredded
     1 tsp     dill weed

          (2)  Make parmesan crust: Combine flour and parmesan
               cheese.  Cut in shortening until mixture resembles
               size of small peas.  Sprinkle with 2 Tbsp water.
               Form into a dough, adding more water as needed.
               Press into an 8-inch springform pan.  Bake at 375
               deg. F for 10 minutes.

          (3)  Make filling: Sauté onion and garlic in butter
               until onion is soft.

          (4)  Beat sour cream and eggs until blended.

          (5)  Drain salmon and break into bite-size pieces.
               Stir into sour cream mixture along with veget-
               ables, 1 cup gruyere, crumbled dill weed, and
               salt.

          (6)  Pour into baked crust; top with remaining gruyere.
               Bake at 375 deg. F oven for 65 to 70 minutes.
