National Quiche Lorraine Day

Quiche Lorraine is a savory French dish that is typically served as a main course. It is a type of quiche that is made with eggs, cream, bacon, and cheese, and is baked in a pastry crust. The dish is believed to have originated in the Lorraine region of France, and it has become popular in many other parts of the world as well. The pastry crust is made with flour, butter, and water, and is typically blind baked before being filled with the quiche mixture. The quiche filling is made by whisking together eggs, heavy cream, and grated cheese, and then adding cooked bacon and seasoning with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. The mixture is then poured into the prepared crust and baked until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. Quiche Lorraine is often served warm or at room temperature, and can be enjoyed as a meal on its own or as part of a larger spread. It is a versatile dish that can be served for breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner, and can be customized with a variety of different ingredients, such as spinach, mushrooms, or onions.
