SPICY EDAM SHRIMP QUICHE

Spicy Edam Shrimp Quiche image

Shrimp, Edam, and mushroom make this an elegant quiche. I use Red Hot Dutch Edam to give this a spicy kick, but if you can't find it, use regular Edam and spike it with red pepper flakes instead.

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion, and cook until softened and translucent, then stir in mushrooms. Cook for an additional 3 minutes. Pour in red wine, and simmer until the liquid has nearly evaporated.
Whisk together eggs, sour cream, red pepper flakes, and salt until smooth; stir in cheese. Place shrimp into the pie shell in an even layer, sprinkle mushroom mixture over top, then pour in custard and spread evenly.
