Quiches de Cathérine

While we were in Orléans Catherine served two quiches. Our first night we enjoyed tomato quiche out on the enclosed deck overlooking Catherine's garden.

She also made a terrine of goat cheese, eggs, and lots of herbs. My friend Pat really likes this terrine. Catherine generously shared her recipe. I added a rough English translation.

Quiche Chèvre et Herbes
175 g farine,

4 oeufs

1 fromage de chèvre

persil, ciboulette, coriandre et toute herbe aromatique 1 bouquet de chaque

75g de gruyère râpé

75 g de crème fraiche ( je mets de la crème de soja = même effet )

On peut ajouter anchois, tomates etc..

Mélanger le tout et faire cuire à feu doux, 180°, pendant 40 minutes.

C'est meilleur le lendemain.

Quiche with Goat Cheese and Herbs
1 cup flour
4 eggs
parsley, chives, coriander and any aromatic herb, a bunch of each
about 2 1/2 oz. grated Gruyère cheese (or use Swiss)
about 2 1/2 oz. crème fraiche Catherine uses a soy product; I would consider Greek yogurt or sour cream.
optional additions include anchovies or tomatoes etc.

Mix everything together and cook in a low oven 245F for 40 minutes
It is better the next day.
