            Jacques follows his aunt’s recipe for Quiche with Bacon--lard and butter in the dough, no pre-baking the shell. He follows with his mother’s unique Eggs Jeannette. Then it’s a savory and very tasty Flan with Green Herbs, so simple to make when fresh herbs are plentiful, and a delicious Spinach, Ham and Parmesan Souffle, presented in a rectangular glass dish.
