For those wishing to compete in the 2 Blowhards “I’m so gay” contest<\/a>, here is my mother’s recipe for Walter Mondale Memorial Quiche — not that she calls it that. The name alludes to the popular 1984 bumper-sticker message “Mondale is a quiche-eater”: if eating quiche is wimpy, eating a spinach and cottage-cheese quiche is beyond wimpy. (Whether that would be ‘überwimpy’ or ‘unterwimpy’ is a question for the pedants.)<\/p>\n

Walter Mondale Memorial Quiche<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

Bake one 9\u201d pie crust<\/strong> 3 min. at 475o<\/sup>. Lower heat to 350o<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

Sprinkle in baked pie crust 1\/2 cup grated Swiss cheese<\/strong>. Beat 4 eggs<\/strong>, blend in 1\/2 cup small curd cottage cheese<\/strong>, 1\/3 cup light cream<\/strong>, 1\/4 tsp. salt<\/strong>, plus pepper<\/strong> and nutmeg<\/strong> to taste. Fold in 1 package frozen chopped spinach<\/strong> (cooked) and 2 tbsp. chives<\/strong>. Pour into pie crust. In small skillet, melt 1 tbsp. butter<\/strong>. Fry 1 small onion<\/strong>, sliced, until golden. Decorate top of quiche with onion rings and butter.<\/p>\n

Bake 45 min. at 350o<\/sup>. Allow to cool somewhat before serving.<\/p>\n

(This works with either \u2018boil-in-the-bag\u2019 spinach or the kind that you boil in water, as long as the latter is drained. It is even better if you double or triple the Swiss cheese: in this case it will fill two 8\u201d pie crusts. Microwaves well: quiche is supposed to be eaten lukewarm anyway.)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This is the only dish I’ve ever eaten and liked that contains cottage cheese.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
