What is a Quiche?

Quiche [KEESH]. This dish originated in northeastern 🇫🇷 France in the region Alsace-Lorraine. It consists of a pastry shell filled with a savory custard made of eggs, cream, and seasonings. Various other ingredients such as onions, mushrooms, ham, shellfish and fresh herbs can be added.

The most notable of these savory pies is Quiche Lorraine made with crisp bacon and Gruyere cheese. Quiche is classically made in a quiche pan, which had fluted, straight sides and ranges in diameter from 8 to 12 inches. Quiche can be served as a lunch or dinner entree, or as a first course or hors d’oeuvre.
