About Leek quiche

Leek quiche is a savory pie rooted in French cuisine, celebrated for its delicate balance of flavors and textures. The dish features a buttery, flaky pastry crust filled with a mixture of sautéed leeks, eggs, cream, and grated cheese, such as Gruyère or Swiss, which create a rich and creamy filling. Often seasoned with nutmeg or thyme, the quiche offers a distinctive yet mild taste. Leeks, the star ingredient, are nutrient-rich and provide a good source of vitamins A, C, and K, along with dietary fiber, adding a wholesome touch. While the combination of eggs and cheese contributes protein, the cream and crust make this dish relatively high in calories and fat. Ideal for brunch or lunch, leek quiche delivers a comforting and satisfying meal, though best enjoyed in moderation within a balanced diet.
