cookie - I made this early so that I could let it stand in the fridge before I used it, but then realised that the buttermilk and baking powder and flour were reacting together so I blind baked it early. This dough rises a lot and if I had looked carefully at the photo I would have realised. Hopefully I will have room in the dish for the quiche. (I can always make two!) I pushed the hot pastry down to make more room for the rest of the quiche. It seemed a lot of pastry but we all enjoyed it.

I happen to have some fresh buttermilk ready to use. I think I'll make some of this and freeze it for when I need it. It looks as though it will be tasty.

I've just made this for tonight's quiche.
I grated my Parmesan and left it in the bowl and then added the rest of the ingredients.
This is what my unbaked dough looks like.

This is what it looked like after being blind baked.

Here is the quiche. It seemed a lot of pastry but we all enjoyed it.
