Quiche

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 over the custard mixturethe custard mixture stays the same. The quiche is then slowly baked until the custard sets. When making a quiche, or any tart filled with liquid, make sure that any holes or cracks in the tart shell have been sealed. For minor slits or cracks, you can brush them with a little beaten egg and bake for about 5 minutes to set the egg.
