the estimable virtues of quiche

, ,

i know, i know, real men don't eat quiche. what idiot said that.

tonight for dinner i am having a simple meal tabachnic (musroom barley soup) with saltines and blue cheese... i love blue cheese.

but this is a quiche i made last week which has served me for breakfast for six days... and there's one piece left.

i call it the end all bang up olympic winning all time favorite seven cheese quiche.

it' easy and it saves you all that time in the morning for a whole week.

the pictures tell the tale....


use whatever you have...



everything depends on a nice buttery dough. you will be eating the crust wishing there was more.


it's pretty obvious



saute' in butter, a dash of corn oil and a smidgen of sesame oil.



cover and keep an eye on it.

yummy... staring to smell it.

six eggs is just right. that means you will eat less than one egg a day.


now don't be piggy... this is soooooooooo rich. it really is designed to fuel your day. along with a glass of orange juice and of course coffee.

Hey Scott, may I advise you to add one or two spoons of 'creme fraiche' to mix with your eggs ? In France, when we make a quiche, a quiche lorraine, or whatever, we always add it to the eggs and sometimes with 15cl of milk. You can add also some good spices at the very end plus some grated cheese on it just before to put it in the oven. Lemon juice and some olives are good too.

Bon appétit ! :wink:

Nicolaki,
I hear that eating quiche is very good for the "manhood"! you are a smart man!!

As for being a little scared of taking "too close steps with your Tango partner", always remember you invested time and energy to be where you are today!
Even if you "step" on each others feet at times,
the glorious tango results it will be worth it!!!
I am happy for your "forward" steps ! :heart:
Enjoy the dance!
