the real deal quiche / week 20 - january 4th, 2010



we made an actual crust!
thanks to a recipe from a friend :)

crust:
1 cup sorghum blend
1/4 cup almond flour
1/2 tsp xanthum gum
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp sugar
5 oz cold butter
1 egg
1/2 T apple cider vinegar

mix all dry ingredients. ALSO: other flours work. like once i used millet and brown rice flour instead of sorghum flour. the almond is nice, but i'm betting it can be left out and replaced with another. i don't like white rice flour, but it's your choice...experiment and work with what you got)
then add the butter, egg and vinegar
mix well with your hands
and roll out on a flat, clean and flour dusted surface (a can/jar without labels is a good rolling pin replacement)
put in greased pan and bake at 375 until a little browned, 10 minutes-ish.
then fill:

filling: 3 eggs, 1/2 cup of milk, muchrooms and broccoli stir fried
topping: swiss and cheddar.

rae made the crust and it turned out sooo well! super flakey and delicious. everyone loved it.
seriously. try the crust.



Note!: We also read one of the Sookie Stackhouse novels,"Club Dead". The books that the show "True Blood" is based on. And we....are avid true blood fans. It's true.
