Tart vs quiche

[yellowmelon]

Why does 'tart' sound so much more appetising than 'quiche'? I've just made a 'feta and red pepper tart' - I knew if I called it 'quiche' DH would be . But no, he thinks it sounds very yummy!

That last emoji should be 😁

I think quiche sounds very appetising. I think your dh sounds daft.

My DH is like this!

He doesn't like macaroni cheese (weird). But he does like cheesy pasta bake.

Obviously they are one and the same...

I think tart sounds much better then quiche tbh. Quiche reminds me of home ec classes in the eighties.

I think the likes of M&S and Tesco Finest are much more likely to call some thing a tart than a quiche.

It’s a bit like that with kids! I’m often vague and i’ve learnt the hard way never to serve anything called casserole. I make loads of casserole types dishes but always call them something vaguely related to it’s content, even if that is just a case of swapping the word casserole for sauce. Chicken in sauce, French beef (beef casserole), Spanish sausage surprise (sausage casserole), pork with apples (pork in cider casserole etc. Similarly I tend to stick to calling crumble just crumble. Because if I were to name a fruit other than apple it would probably be rejected.

😂 Is your DH my DH? He has a visceral loathing for anything called quiche, even if he was previously enjoying eating it. Fortunately he now understands that he is slightly ridiculous.

But not all tarts have a eggs custard filling like a quiche.

I love quiche. Rather a quiche than a tart any day.

All quiches are tarts but not all tarts are quiches!

Yes, but what about flans?

In a similar vein, my DS wouldn't eat stews or casseroles at all. However if I put the same stew/casserole in a bowl with a pastry lid and called it a pie he loved them!

Quiche is custard/egg based. Savoury.
