Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 9-inch pie shell

OR

4 4-inch pie shells

1/4 cup soy Parmesan

1 3/4 cups soy milk

1/2 cup medium-firm tofu

1 chicken-style vegetarian bouillon cube -- crumbled

OR

enough broth powder for 1 cup liquid

1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch or wheat starch, plus a pinch

of Spanish saffron, or 1 tablespoon

custard powder plus 1/2 tablespoon

cornstarch

4 slices vegetarian ham or Canadian bacon, or about

8 slices vegetarian bacon

1/2 teaspoon agar powder or 1 tablespoon agar flakes

1/2 teaspoon salt

pinch pepper

pinch nutmeg

 

Preheat the oven to 425F for a 9-inch quiche or 400F for individual quiches.

 

Prick the crust all over, and bake for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven.

 

Brown the ham or bacon in a nonstick pan. Slice it thinly and scatter over the

bottom of the pastry.

 

Note: the ham or bacon was supposed to be second on the ingredient list.

 

Process the remaining ingredients in a blender until smooth, and pour into the

crust. Bake for 10 minutes, then cover the edges of the pastry with strips of

foil, and bake 20 minutes more. (Bake individual quiches at 400F for 25

minutes.)

 

The quiche needs to be cooled at least to room temperature to be firm. It will

keep well in the refrigerator for a few days.

 

Description:
