I hail from a place where salmon is always fresh and available so it is no wonder that we get a lot of beautiful quiche that is made from salmon. Try this wonderful salmon quiche recipe for a change from the usual ham and cheese one. Instead of making the pastry from start, I opt for using those ready-made pastry that you can buy frozen from the store.
