Tips:

  • Use fresh crab meat for the best flavor. You can find crab meat in the seafood section of most grocery stores.
  • If you don't have any fresh crab meat, you can use canned or frozen crab meat instead. Just be sure to thaw it before using.
  • Use a variety of tomatoes in your quiche. This will give it a more complex flavor. Cherry tomatoes, grape tomatoes, and Roma tomatoes are all good choices.
  • Don't overcook the quiche. The filling should be set, but still slightly wobbly in the center.
  • Let the quiche cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to slice.
