Bacon & Shallot Quiche


Simple & classic. Prepare and form a savory crust into a shallow tart tin (with a removable base). Saute bacon or pancetta until rendered and crispy. Add shallots, garlic, a little thyme & sage. Separately, whisk eggs & a splash of milk, add softened onion/bacon/herb mixture and fold together. Finish with salt & pepper. Pour into crust, sprinkle with a high-quality aged parmesan (crumbles). Bake for 30 minutes, until puffy and crispy on top. Let sit for 5-10 minutes and serve with something acidic like tomatoes tossed in olive oil & sea salt.
