My 2 same old quiche crusts are both rice or potatoes. I’ve by no means made a pie crust and notice no explanation why to start out now.
We haven’t in truth determined which crust we love very best so I simply make the one who turns out best possible on the time. I cook dinner the rice forward of time if I keep in mind… If I don’t I take advantage of shredded potatoes.
Each are a lot more straightforward than making pastry.

For a quiche with a Potato Crust: Hen & Spinach Quiche
For the entire gurus who say ‘by no means, ever, ever, swat your canine’….
We had simply are available from our afternoon stroll and I had made my same old afternoon espresso. Hector most often relaxes on his mattress with a bite toy.
He got here and sat via me.
I petted and instructed him he used to be a excellent boy.
Then he jumped up on me and spilled the espresso on my keyboard. I yelled (sizzling espresso) at which level he jumped up once more, grabbed my telephone and tossed it like considered one of his toys. As he used to be coming again to seize my glasses he can have gotten a swat at the butt.
It might had been more practical if he hadn’t been spinning in circles on the time.
I wish to say that he used to be correctly chastised and went in to his crate to contemplate his misdeeds… However that didn’t occur.
He grabbed considered one of his toys, ran to his mattress and checked out me as though to mention ‘That used to be a laugh! I’ll do it once more when I am getting the risk.’
I don’t suppose the swat ‘overwhelmed his spirit’.
