Quiche is a savoury,open faced pastry crust with a filling of savoury custard with cheese, seafood and /or vegetables.
Quiche can be served hot or cold.It is part of french cuisine but is really popular in other counties, especially as party food-
Recipes for custards baked in pastry containing meat, fish or fruits are referred in the 14th century and in 15th century cookbooks as well.
My favorites are with veggies and cheese, but I love too with seafood or chicken.
