Chef’s Note: To make no-fail hard-cooked eggs, place the eggs in a small saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring the water to a boil, remove from the heat, cover and let sit for 10 to 12 minutes. (In the Black Forest, we traditionally add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar along with the water to help seal the eggs in case some crack during cooking.) Drain the eggs and set under cold running water to cool.

Chef’s Note: To make successful chocolate curls, bring a block of chocolate to room temperature and, using a vegetable peeler, slowly move the peeler across one of the flat sides of the chocolate. Keep the curls in the refrigerator so they remain firm until you are ready to use them.

Be sure to choose a good-quality ham here. Black Forest ham is suggested, but any cooked or smoked ham will do. You could even use bacon or sausage for that matter. Whatever meat you choose, just be sure it is not too dry, or it will become quite tough when baked in the quiche.
