Sous Chef
Blind bake (pre-bake) your crust to eliminate the sogginess problem. Line your crust with non-stick foil, fill with dried beans (for weight) and bake 10 min at 350 F or 375 F. Remove from oven, remove foil and beans (save beans to use again and again), put back in oven for another 5 minutes or so. These baking times will vary from one oven to another; experimentation is the best school for this.
You might also want to start baking your filled quiche at 400 F for 20 min and then reduce heat to 350 to finish (30 min or so). Get an oven thermometer to keep track of your oven's actual heat; and always pre-heat to the desired temp before baking!
