Authentic Quiche Lorraine is one of the most well liked of current trending foods on earth. It is enjoyed by millions daily. It’s easy, it is fast, it tastes yummy. Authentic Quiche Lorraine is something which I have loved my whole life. They are fine and they look wonderful.
Delicious quiche with homemade crust (it's worth it). It's my understanding that the addition of cheese to quiche is not common in France, and the addition of onions to a Quiche Lorraine transforms it into Quiche Alsacienne (from the region of Alsace rather than the region of Lorraine). Regardless, Classic French Cooking by Luard, the source of this recipe, includes neither.
To get started with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can have authentic quiche lorraine using 8 ingredients and 7 steps. Here is how you cook it.
The ingredients needed to make Authentic Quiche Lorraine:

There's no cheese, herbs, or green onions (yes, I know my picture above is an abomination but I enjoy the garnish of green onions). We'll stick with the traditional recipe in this article because it simplifies the technique. Here is a classic quiche Lorraine recipe. In France, this is often made with crème fraîche, but you can substitute heavy cream, which may be more readily available and more reasonably priced if you live outside of France.
Steps to make Authentic Quiche Lorraine:
- Slice butter in cubes and mix with flower. Mix together with your hands. When the mixture is well mixed add 4cl of water and quickly mix with hands again.

Traditionally the Quiche Lorraine was served with a beer. Wine is also an optimal choice. With the salty and creamy taste of the Quiche Lorraine, a dry, light and fresh wine will be perfect. I recommend a white wine from Alsace in France: Alsace Pinot Auxerrois Blanc. Alsace Pinot Blanc - Klevner Blanc.
