Quiche survey: Top 8 tested

USUALLY a pastry case filled with eggs and cream, a quiche can have just about any savoury filling in it. 

Quiche Lorraine is the best known, made by adding chopped up bacon to the egg mixture. Cheese seems to be a later addition to the French traditional recipe, but I don’t think we need to be too precious about it. If it tastes good, enjoy it.

Quiches are a bit of trouble to make if you don’t like making pastry. However, you can buy pastry and still make a decent quiche. Try using puff or flaky pastry as well as the traditional shortcrust for a difference in texture.
