   2      cups          flour
     1/4  pound         butter or margarine
     1/2  cup           club soda or Schweppes
                        salt
                        filling:
   3      large         onions -- very thinly sliced
   2      tablespoons   butter or margarine
     1/2  pound         grated  Swiss or Gouda cheese 
   1      tablespoon    flour
   3                    eggs
   1      cup           heavy cream
                        salt -- pepper, and nutmeg

NOTE 1: All ingredients should be very cold.

DOUGH: Cut butter into flour and salt until it resembles very coarse meal.
Stir in soda. Knead just to combine. Wrap in film and refrigerate 1 hour.

On a floured board roll out dough, fold in 3's, as if you were folding a
letter. Chill 1 hour.

FILLING: Cook onions in butter until translucent. Let cool. Stir flour into
cheese. Blend eggs, cream and seasonings.

Roll out dough and place in a quiche pan. Spread onions in the bottom.
Spread cheese mixture and pour cream and eggs on top.

Bake in pre-heated 350 oven for 20 minutes. Turn down heat to 300 and bake
another 35 minutes.
