Ginevra Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 I'm bringing one to a luncheon. Is it bad form for it to be chilled? Or is it simply a matter of preference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ailaena Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 The times that I can remember eating quiche at a potluck, it was always cold. I once brought mini quiches somewhere and they were also cold. But watch everybody else disagree with me :p :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solascriptura Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Either hot or room temp. Not cold 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocolatechip Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Though I'd eat quiche cold leftover out of my fridge, I would find it strange to have it served cold at an event. Either warm or room temp is what I'd expect. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janie Grace Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Yep, warm or room temperature. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farrar Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 I've had it served at restaurants room temp several times. So I take that as the authority. If a decent cafe is allowed to serve it that way, you can definitely do it for a potluck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsquirrel Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Room temp or hot. I don't think I've ever eaten it chilled. I would assume yours would come to room temp on the way to the potluck. I love quiche at a potluck! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ausmumof3 Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I love it cold.. Better than hot and have had it at picnic type birthday parties like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catwoman Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I'm not sure. You should probably bring it over to my house for a taste test. ;) 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katy Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Cold tastes disgusting to me. It's not like pizza, I don't know why. Room temp is fine. We have an Anchor Hocking glass sheet pan that came with an insulated carrier and a hot pack you warm in the microwave first that I use for that type of thing. The pan is not the best quality but the carrier is awesome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8circles Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Hot or cold - not room temp. I know cold is against the "rules" but those are my preferences. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catwoman Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Hot or cold - not room temp. I know cold is against the "rules" but those are my preferences. I don't like it room temp, either. When it's room temperature, it seems like it sat out too long and needs to be heated up or something. If it's cold, I feel like it's safe to eat because it has been refrigerated, and if it's nice and warm, it seems like it's fresh out of the oven. On a side note, I had no idea until now that I was this particular about quiche. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seasider Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I like it rewarmed. Quiche is one of those foods that to me tastes best made a day before and then reheated. Am I weird for that? Anyway, while I have been known to eat cold quiche, I wouldn't serve it to guests that way. I could eat it room temp, but it's best warm. Not piping hot, either. I'm not too picky. 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-rap Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Warm or room temperature. Not cold, as in straight from the refrigerator. That sounds bad to me. We've often brought a quiche on picnics though, straight from the picnic basket, room temperature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparklyUnicorn Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I wouldn't care for it straight out of the fridge. More like room temp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Well, I heated it and brought it in an insulated container, so presumably it was somewhere around warmer than room temp. (i was dropping off; I did not stay and couldn't tell you exactly how warm it was when eaten.) But thank you, everyone for the replies. I think it is probably more normal for it to be served between room temp and hot. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
