This smooth and creamy quiche is the best you’ll ever have. By using a low cooking temperature and sous vide mode, you won’t need to worry about accidentally overcooking the custard. Feel free to switch up the fillings as you’d like, but just make sure to pre-cook them before adding to the quiche crust. Notes: The quiche crust doesn’t cook much in this recipe, so make sure to fully bake it before using it. You can use the recipe in this app or the recipe of your choosing. Because of the low oven temperature, this quiche will not come out browned on top. However, if that’s your preference, you can switch the oven to top heat at 375°F (191°C) and continue to cook for two minutes, or until the top is browned to your liking.
