Although eggs and cream baked in a pastry case goes as far back as the 13th and 14th century in Italian and French cuisine, we can thank the French for today's **Quiche**, which in simple terms is just an open savoury pie.

A crisp pastry base filled with either meat, seafood, vegetables or cheese set in an egg custard made with either cream or milk and eggs, eaten either cold or hot with a crisp green salad being the favoured accompaniment makes this the perfect light meal.

Quiche Lorraine can probably be called the mother of all quiches and has a filling of bacon and cheese.

Other quiches have charming French names like 
* Quiche au Fromage - *quiche with cheese*
* Quiche aux Champignons - *with mushrooms*
* Quiche Florentine - *with spinach*
* Quiche Provençale - *with tomatoes*   

We will be showing you how to make the perfect Quiche Florentine with a twist, using a Cheese Short Crust Pastry Base, filled with Spinach, Corn & Cheese in a Greek style yogurt & egg custard.
