Strawberry quiche
Description
Homemade baking for tea. Strawberry quiche is an extraordinarily tasty and light cake in the summer period when this fresh berry is available. My filling is made from custard, but it can be sour cream with eggs and sugar. The shortcrust pastry is often recommended to be baked on parchment, on which peas, beans, or rice are sprinkled. I baked it both with peas and without them. I didn't notice any particular difference. I highly recommend making such a quiche. The moderately sweet cream pairs excellently with the slightly tart strawberries. Serve it cooled or slightly warm.
