Raw quiche bottom!!!

  • I've never blind baked the pastry when making a quiche and have never had a soggy pastry base. I always use a metal tin and brush the pastry with some oil before adding the filling. Sometimes I put a layer of grated cheese in first - it depends on the type of quiche being made. Grated cheese or not, I just put all the filling ingredients into the pastry lined tin, pour in the eggs/cream/milk mixture and then put it straight into a pre-heated oven to bake.

    No expert on this, but i it possible that if you increase the oven temp a little the custard will start to set before it has a chance to make the pastry soggy?
