Place the pastry on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Using a sharp paring knife, score a \u00be-inch border around the perimeter, then, using a fork, dock the inner rectangle in \u00bd-inch intervals. Par-bake until lightly golden, about 15 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the pastry is par-baking, bring a saucepan of salted water to a boil and prepare a bowl of ice water. Trim the woody ends of the asparagus and remove the last few inches of tough skin with a vegetable peeler. Blanch the asparagus for about 20 seconds, then place the spears in the ice water bath to halt the cooking process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remove pastry from the oven and using the back of a fork, gently press down the inner section of the shell. Sprinkle the cheeses evenly over the pastry and season with smoked paprika and pepper. Arrange the asparagus in a single layer over the cheese, alternating ends and tips. Bake until asparagus is tender and the pastry is fully golden and crisp, 20 to 25 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When ready to serve, poach the eggs: Bring a medium saucepan of water to a bare simmer and add the vinegar. Crack one egg into a small bowl, then tip into a fine mesh strainer. Carefully swirl egg around the strainer, so any loose whites can drop through. Gently tip egg into water. Swirl gently with a spoon, just until the egg begins to set, about 10 seconds. Repeat straining and tipping with remaining eggs. Cook, swirling occasionally until egg whites are fully set but yolks are still soft, about four minutes. Carefully lift eggs from pot with a slotted spoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Serve a slice of tart topped with an egg. Offer flaky salt, freshly ground black pepper, and red pepper flakes for seasoning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Thoughtful breakfast-in-bed ideas for Father\u2019s Day<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This Dad\u2019s day, celebrate the father figures in your life with a lovingly crafted breakfast-in-bed.
