Quiche Lorraine – This brings back a flood of memories. Nancy started to make quiche shortly after we got married. Then every week-end we had quiche. Nancy has always been creative in the kitchen. I use to call this a “quicky” breakfast.
When most people think of quiche, they tend to assume that it’s French in origin. That’s only natural, since it was in France that quiche first became popular, and it’s been a staple of French cuisine for centuries. Surprisingly, though, the quiche actually originated in Germany.
