Quiche Lorraine

by:




A quiche is a savory custard baked in a prebaked tart shell. The most traditional quiche of all is a quiche Lorraine, made by pouring a custard mixture over pieces of bacon, and sometimes cheese, arranged in the tart shell. Because quiche is so versatile, you can arrange almost anything you like in the shell before pouring the custard mixture into it - the custard mixture stays the same. The quiche is then slowly baked until the custard sets. When making a quiche, or any tartfilled with liquid, make sure that any holes or cracks in the tart shell have been sealed. For minor cracks or slits, the traditional brushing with beaten egg, followed by a 5-minute baking to set it, usually does the trick. For bigger cracks, or just to be sure, brush the baked shell with flour paste and bake it for 5 minutes.
