Directions
Preheat oven to 375. Prepare a 9-inch pie shell. Brush it with the white of one egg,and prick it well. Chop 1/4 lb. Sliced bacon into 1-inch lengths. Cook the bacon in a heavy skillet, stirring constantly, until the fat is almost rendered out, but the bacon is not yet crisp. Drain on paper toweling. Scald 2 cups milk or cream to hasten the cooking time. Cool slightly, then beat together with 3 eggs, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon white pepper, a fresh grating of nutmeg, and 1 teaspoon chopped chives. Sprinkle the bottom of the pie shell with the bacon and 1/2 cup diced Swiss cheese. Pour the custard mixture over it. Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until the top is a golden brown.
