A delightful twist on the classic Quiche Lorraine, this recipe incorporates a blend of cheeses and a touch of herbs for an elevated flavor.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and a properly set custard.
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheeses and flour until evenly coated.
Coating the cheese with flour helps prevent it from sinking to the bottom of the quiche.
Spread the cheese mixture evenly over the bottom of the pre-baked pie crust.
Ensure an even layer for consistent flavor in every bite.
Distribute the diced ham evenly over the cheese layer.
Spread the ham evenly to ensure every slice has a good amount.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, dry mustard, and parsley until smooth.
Whisking thoroughly ensures a uniform custard.
Pour the custard mixture evenly over the cheese and ham in the pie crust.
Pour slowly to avoid spilling over the edges of the crust.
Bake the quiche in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is golden brown.
Check doneness by inserting a knife into the center; it should come out clean.
Let the quiche cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Cooling slightly helps the quiche set and makes slicing easier.
