Quiche de France 8 frozen pie crusts, 9 inch, thawed 32 slices bacon lean, cut in 1 inch pieces 8 eggs whole 6 cups half and half 1 teaspoon salt pinch of black pepper freshly ground 4 cups swiss cheese grated natural 1/2 cup real butter, cut in tiny pieces Heat oven to 400°. With a fork, prick the bottom of the pie crusts in several places all the way through. Set the timer and bake the crusts on the center rack of the oven for 6 minutes. Using the potholders, remove the crusts from the oven and place on cooling racks. Turn oven down to 375°. Over medium high heat in a medium saucepan fry bacon until golden brown. Remove pieces with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to absorb the grease. In a medium bowl and using a wire whisk, beat eggs, yolks, half and half, salt, and pepper together until smooth. With a mixing spoon, stir in grated cheese. Divide bacon pieces in each pie shell. Dot the top of each quiche with 1 tablespoon of butter. Set the timer and bake quiches in the center of the oven until golden and puffed, 20 - 25 minutes. Quiches are done when a table knife inserted 2 inches from the outside edge comes out clean. Serve hot or warm. Makes 8 servings.
