- Cool quiche for 10 minutes before you slice and serve. Feel free to garnish with a little grated Parmesan cheese. TESTING YOUR QUICHE: You can tell your quiche is done by either sticking a toothpick in the center and it will come out clean when done - or jiggle the quiche and if the center doesn’t move (or barely moves) - the quiche is done. It will continue to cook if you remove from the oven.
