Quiche Lorraine



I’ve had many versions of this delightful dish throughout my life.  My mother made her own version which was light and very tasty.  While raising my children I made my own versions, many times with refrigerator left-overs.  I would serve it for dinner as the girls loved breakfast or brunch items for dinner.

Rachel’s version, the French version, was better than I expected. The addition of crème fraiche made for a creamy decadent delight.  Again, appreciating Rachel’s alternative suggestions, I’m able to customize and utilize what I may have already or what is in season.

The recipe for the crust turned out flaky and buttery, the perfect crust for any quiche or savory tart. I typically shy away from recipes that require a homemade crust as I’ve had too many flops in the past.  But no longer will I hesitate.  I think a novice would do well with this tart and all who taste it will be thrilled.
