Notes
- Use whole milk or heavy cream for best custard texture; avoid skim or 1% milk.
- Check doneness by inserting a knife; it should come out clean when fully baked.
- Allow the quiche to rest 20-30 minutes before slicing to firm up the custard.
- This quiche can be served warm, at room temperature, or cold.
