YOUR BASIC QUICHE RECIPE - RACHAEL RAY

There are so many different types of quiches you can make, but first you have to know how to make the basic pie. You can use store-bought or homemade crust and the results will still be impressive for such a simple dish.

Provided by local-flavor

Number Of Ingredients 1

  • 1 basic pie crust, store-bought is fine

  • 6 eggs or 4 whole eggs and 2 egg whites

  • 1 cup milk (any kind, but the higher fat the better)

  • 2/3 cup half-and-half or cream

  • 1 cup grated sharp cheese, such as Swiss, cheddar, Gruyère or crumbled feta

  • A pinch of grated nutmeg (optional)

  • A teaspoon of fresh thyme

  • A pinch of salt and pepper

  • undefined

Optional additions:

  • 1 medium onion, chopped and sautéed

  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced and sautéed

  • 1 cup ham, diced

  • 3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled

  • 3/4 cup cooked spinach, drained and patted dry and chopped

  • undefined

Steps:

  • Pre-heat the oven to 425ºF. Whisk the eggs in a large bowl and add the milk and half-and-half or cream. Whisk together thoroughly and then stir in the shredded cheese and herbs. Pour the mixture into the pie crust and bake for 30 minutes. If the quiche still has a liquidy and jiggly center, bake for another 10 minutes. If firm, remove from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. Quiche can be served at room temperature. Tip: If your crust edges start to burn, wrap aluminum foil over the edges and keep cooking as instructed above. Note: If you want to add any of the optional additions mentioned above, simply stir them in when you are adding the cheese, but reduce the amount of cheese by 1/2 cup so everything fits!

BASIC CRUSTLESS QUICHE RECIPE - FOOD.COM
This is my go to base for a quiche. I always do crustless. You can add really anything to this. We love sauteed veggies with onion and garlic with ham or tomatoes and bacon. If you cook the veggies, let them cool before adding to quiche mix because of the eggs. Spinach and ham is classic with added swiss. This is really great for when you have random veggies and leftover meat or deli meat in the fridge! Scale back the mozzarella to a 1/2 cup and put1/2 cup any other kind of cheese in, I use cheddar, swiss, provolone, parmesean frequently. I have also used cottage cheese with the ricotta.
