Quiche Lorraine
France · Europe
- Short description
- This savory custard tart balances a flaky crust with a rich egg-and-cream filling.
- Ingredients
- Shortcrust pastry filled with eggs, cream, lardons or bacon, butter, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
- Cultural note
- Its classic form is restrained: the custard and cured pork carry the dish without needing a long list of additions.
- Common misconception
- Cheese appears in many modern versions, but the older plain custard-and-lardon style is a separate reference point.
