Quiche Lab

First off you make your pie crust. To make a pie crust you need: 1 cup of flour, 1/8 teaspoon of salt, 1/3 cups of chilled lard, and 2-3 tablespoons of cold water. I followed the following procedure. 1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and mix together flour and salt. 2. Cut in the lard. 3. Sprinkle with cold water to moisten. 4. Form dough into a ball. 5. Push down on it to make a round circle. 6. Put flour onto pastry cloth and rub it in and make sure you put your rolling pin cover on, so your dough doesn't stick to it. 7. Put dough onto the pastry cloth and roll up and down, side to side, and diagonal to diagonal. 8. After you have rolled your dough out to a size that will fit into/onto a pie pan and have extra dough around it, fold your pastry cloth corner to corner so your pie crust dough is in 1/4 size of what it was before. 9. Carefully pick up your dough and put the corner of the dough into the center of the pie pan and carefully unfold your dough to cover the whole pan. 10. Cut off extract dough so there is at least an inch of dough hanging off the edge of the pan. 11. Once you have at least and inch on the side of the pan take your thumb and pointer finger and pick up the inch of dough and pinch your other thumb into the dough to create a finished edge. 12. Put your dough into the oven for 10-12 minutes or until it is golden brown. While your crust is cooking get together 6 eggs and a cup of milk. Mix your eggs and milk together. I then added bacon, ham, and cheese in my eggs and milk mixture. Then, I dumped my egg mixture into the pie crust and put my whole quiche into the oven for 50-60 minutes.
My quiche was very moist and warm. It was very tasty, especially with ketchup. It could of had more meet in it, I added a lot of cheese because I'm a cheese lover.  Over all, my family and boyfriend thought it was very good and recommended me to make it again for breakfast sometime.
