Boys eat flan, girls eat quiche

Oh dear, all these years, I never knew.... I might as well have been wearing stockings & suspenders and knitting doilies in the shape of ponies...

Should you ever want to, crochet is better for irregular shapes than knitting, and tights are a lot more practical.

Did I say I'd made one? I think not.

That's good to know, thanks for the advice. I guess I might as well embrace my new found femininity, maybe get some nice high heels, start drinking white wine, try not to take pride in farting, that sort of thing.

No need to go overboard.

I didn't say you had.

Fair enough

Wonder if cheese strings can be crocheted?

fish and chips

Yes!! I think the fish and chips pizza is the surest sign I've ever seen that humankind will destroy itself.

a flan and a quiche aren't the same!

Seeing as I am interested in such matters of foody definition, go on, then, why are they not?
I thought quiche was just the French word for it.

Aren't quiches savoury egg flans, where as a flan can be have all sorts of fillings?

All quiches are flans but not all flans are quiches

 

[Boppity]

Quiche is an abomination.

 

[sojourner]

I like quiche. I like goats cheese and red pepper quiche most. That is all.

 

[Boppity]

Goats cheese is an abomination.

All quiches are flans but not all flans are quiches

Aye, that sounds sensible.
You can have sweet flans, after all. You never get a sweet quiche.

Thanks.

What about tarts? Where do they figure in the quiche / flan paradigm?

quiche = girls, flan = boys, tarts = hermaphrodites.

I'll have yours if you don't want it.

What about tarts? Where do they figure in the quiche / flan paradigm?

I suppose a savoury eggy tart is a quiche and a savoury non-eggy tart is flan. A sweet eggy tart can be a flan. But it could also be a tart, a Manchester tart, for instance. Or a custard tart. Though they can also be custard pies, if you are a clown in a circus.
That said, on Tiswas, they had the Phantom Flan Flinger and those were alleged to be custard tarts or pies.
You'd not have a jam flan or a jam quiche, I don't suppose. It's a jam tart.
To add further to the mix, in Ireland they have apple tarts and rhubarb tarts. To the non-Irish eye, these are not tarts at all; but pies. But it would be the height of bad manners to quibble about native nomenclature when someone's offering you a slice.

So in conclusion - I have no earthly idea.

By all means, help yourself.

so... pizza, quiche, flan, tart.... can someone do a graph to clearly explain this perplexing but important matter of culinary confusion?

 

[TruXta]

You don't need graphs, you need a Venn diagram or two.

Quiche is an abomination.

Quiche is excrement. Flan is a sort of pie.

 

[Citizen66]

Spinach, egg (crack it onto the top of the pizza), black olives and onion ftw.

 

[Citizen66]

Quiche is excrement. Flan is a sort of pie.

Flan is a pie sans lid. Quiche is jellified scrambled eggs in a pie sans lid.
