Quiche Lorraine

Every day from 11 a.m., we cook together in the YouTube cookery show "Schnitz und Drunder". The show is named after a typical dish from Aargau, a bit of home for me as an exile from Baden in Zurich. This week it's "Quiche Lorraine".

Quiche is a dish that I have a love-hate relationship with. The savoury French cake has been on the menu in many cafés for a few years now, which is not a bad thing in itself. However, as every café creates its own version and these creations are usually not even that good, I haven't made a quiche myself for years. And yet the classic version "Quiche Lorraine" is incredibly delicious. Bacon, onions, cheese, eggs and cream. Sounds as awesome as it is.

Recipe

  • Pour 1 round of ready-made cake batter into a mould
  • Cut 1 large onion into thin slices and cook very slowly in butter over a low heat until translucent. This will take at least 15 minutes
  • Sauté the diced bacon and drain on kitchen paper
  • Add 1 dl of white wine to the onions and boil it down completely
  • Mix 3 dl cream and 3 eggs, add 50 g grated cheese
  • Add the onions and bacon to the icing, season with salt and pepper
  • Spread the icing over the dough and cover the icing with grated cheese
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 220 degrees in the lower third of the oven for around 30 minutes

When I flew the family nest over 15 years ago, I suddenly had to cook for myself. But it wasn’t long until this necessity became a virtue. Today, rattling those pots and pans is a fundamental part of my life. I’m a true foodie and devour everything from junk food to star-awarded cuisine. Literally. I eat way too fast.
