Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Spread the tomatoes out in a single layer on a shallow baking pan and toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Roast on the top rack for 15 minutes. Add the olives and continue to roast until the tomato skins are dark brown and black in spots, about 10 minutes more. Remove from the oven and reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, pulse the bread into crumbs in a food processor. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add the breadcrumbs and stir until evenly toasted, about 5 minutes. Evenly spread the crumbs in a 9-inch glass or ceramic pie pan. Place the pan on a baking sheet.
• Wipe out the skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and the onions and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook over medium-high heat until translucent and starting to brown, about 4 minutes; add the lemon zest and cook for 1 minute more. Cool slightly.
• Whisk the half-and-half and whole eggs and yolks in a large glass measuring cup. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Evenly spread the onions in the prepared pan. Combine the Emmentaler and fontina and scatter over the onions. Top with the roasted tomatoes and olives and sprinkle with the rosemary. Pour the custard over the fillings.
• Bake until the quiche is just set in the center, 40 to 50 minutes. Cool completely on a rack before serving.

Steps:

• Roll out the crust and line a 9- or 10-inch tart pan. Refrigerate uncovered (place in freezer if using the yeasted crust) while you make the filling.
• Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a wide, heavy saucepan and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until it begins to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add a pinch of salt and continue to cook, stirring often, until tender, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile pulse the tomatoes in a food processor fitted with the steel blade or in a mini-processor.
• Add the garlic to the onions and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add to the canned tomatoes and turn up the heat slightly. Add the tomato paste, sugar, salt, basil or rosemary spring and thyme and simmer briskly, stirring often, until the tomatoes have cooked down and smell fragrant, about 15 minutes. Taste and adjust salt, and add pepper. Remove from the heat. Remove the basil or rosemary sprig and, if you used rosemary, remove any rosemary needles that may have detached from the sprig. Allow to cool slightly. You should have about 1 cup of the sauce.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Beat the eggs and egg yolks in a large bowl. Brush the bottom of the crust with a small amount of the beaten egg and pre-bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes.
• Beat the milk into the eggs. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, freshly ground pepper to taste and beat together. Stir in the cheeses and the tomato sauce and combine well. Scrape into the crust, using a rubber spatula to scrape out every last bit from the bowl. Place the tart on a sheet pan for easier handling and place in the oven. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until set. Remove from the heat and allow to sit for at least 15 minutes before cutting.
