    A chicken is just an overly complicated way for an egg to make another egg

    I mean…no…quiche is a custard base with cheese and no top crust. A chicken pot pie uses a roux with no cheese and a top crust.

    The top crust is not really that big a deal, but custard vs roux is significant. Also, cheese.

    The veggie mixture tends to be very different too, but that is pretty flexible for quiche and I’m sure a quiche with similar veggies to a pot pie would be good, but I don’t think it would be a traditional flavor profile.

        Is a breakfast burrito a sandwich?

            Alternative, could it be a Wellington?

      According to the way my dad makes “quiche” it’s an ommelette with more cheese than egg set inside of a pie crust.

      Booooo! Get out of here with that reasonable and accurate analysis! We’re not here for truth, we’re here for shower facts

      (Yes you are correct, eggs =/= chicken as an ingredient. You learn this when you try to use pureed chicken breast as an egg replacement in cake. It was a meaty cake)

        Haha true I don’t think I’d like a cake made with pureed chicken instead of eggs!

      I made one yesterday. I tried using 100% butter in the crust instead of 50/50 butter/shortening. It was delicious. Harder to work, i wound up putting it in the fridge for a couple hours so that I could work it before it got too soft, but absolutely delicious. Melt in you mouth top crust, with just the right about of flake.

      I also made the rue thicker than usual, knowing most of it would be lunch later this week. After resting for an hour it had the consistency of a fresh quiche, almost like a custard. Thus my shower (kitchen) thought

    A breakfast burrito is kind of like a quick quiche. 🤔️

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS
