The pastry was a variation on Mary Berry's grated frozen butter, flour, salt, a little cold water and an egg. Americans don't usually put an egg in pastry, it works. Pastry is really alchemy. You mix together simple ingredients and make something devine.
The filling was 7 eggs, a chunk of grated forbidden cheddar, onions, mushrooms and bacon lightly fried, a dash of heavy cream.
I blind baked the pastry for about 20 minutes at about 400 degrees F, then added the filling and baked at about 375 degrees for about 20 minutes, turned the oven down to 300 F for another 25 minutes.
It was good, very good.
And I bet the Forbidden Cheddar was the best part!
ReplyDeleteExtra sharp cheese,
DeleteI love quiche. My aunt and a friend had a company called Love and Quiches. There was a lot of that at any party she hosted.
ReplyDeleteWe need more parties.
DeleteOhmygosh...that crust looks fabulous! What fun to put together something that turns out good, very good. Cheese sure bumps up the flavor game.
ReplyDeleteSimple ingredients, and tasty
DeleteYou had me at bacon and cheddar!
ReplyDeleteLooks dee-lish!
Hard to go wrong with good bacon and cheese. The bacon is made locally, $15 pound and well worth it.
DeleteI love a good quiche...and a good man who makes them :-)

DeleteThat looks and sounds delicious. I do love a good quiche.

DeleteI don't love quiche at all! Maybe I've never had a good one, huh? The texture gags me. It looks good, though.
ReplyDeleteThat is an interesting point, what is it, a custard with vegies?
