Quiche Lorraine

Quiche lorraine consists of a shortcrust pastry case filled with eggs, cream and smoked pork lardons. The lardons are browned and drained before being distributed over the pastry. The egg-and-cream mixture is poured around them and baked until the filling sets.[1]

Preparations can include milk in the filling and seasoning with pepper and nutmeg. The pastry is pricked before filling to limit puffing.[1]
