My recipe - less cream
Lisa - March 13, 2008 11:02:20 AM PSTI've found that any quiche recipe is better if you stick with roughly 1/4 cup dairy to 1 egg.
Toss the shredded cheese with a bit of flour to keep the cheese from clumping.
Prebake the crust.
Sautee the bacon and onion together and place in the crust before any liquid. It keeps the bottom crust from getting soggy.Was this review helpful to you? Yes - No Report Abuse

A good start but better modified
dgc176 - March 2, 2008 05:06:36 PM PSTI made the recipe as directed and it took very long to cook and was kind of wet -- not firm like a quiche should really be. I cut the half and half to 1 cup and added two more eggs and it came out perfect.
