Quiche Lorraine L'escoffier image

This is a creamy version of the classic quiche lorraine. Originally from the RSVP section in a September 1981 issue of Bon Appetit. It was requested from chef Raymond Dreyfus of the Bevery Hilton in Bevery Hills, California. It makes a lovely lunch or light supper with a green or fruit salad and a glass of chilled white wine.
