Port-Glazed Grape Tarts With Pecan Crust

Mon, 29 Dec 2008 23:21:47 -0500

From Gourmet magazine, November 2002. Light and refreshing but rich in flavor. The pecan crust provides a nice texture contrast to the grapes. Concord grapes could be substituted for the red grapes. Some of my friends like to serve this tart with Stilton cheese. Special equipment: 2 (11 1/4- by 8- by 1-inch) rectangular tart pans with removable bottoms, or 2 (10-inch) round fluted tart pans with removable bottoms -- posted by swissms

The Queen of Hearts - Valentine's Jam Tarts

Sun, 11 Jan 2009 21:41:53 -0500

Jam tarts are a quintessential British teatime treat - little crispy short crust pastry rounds filled with assorted fruit jams, such as strawberry, raspberry, apricot, blackcurrant and lemon curd. They were the first things my mum taught me to bake when I was little, and in turn, I taught my daughter how to make them when she was very small. Here I have suggested that as a Valentine's Day treat, you top the jam tarts with a little pastry heart........after all, the way to a loved one's heart is through their stomach! Jam Tarts normally do NOT have any pastry topping however, so for the rest of the year, just make them as posted with no pastry lid, or use other suitable shapes appropriate for a special event. I have posted homemade short crust pastry, it is so easy to make and is far superior to ready-made, although I DO use ready-made when I am short of time! Try to use good quality or homemade jams and jellies, the higher the fruit content, the less the jam or jelly will bubble out of the pastry case. These are essential for any English Tea Party, especially if Alice in Wonderland has been invited............along with the white rabbit! Have fun! -- posted by French Tart

Crostata Di Noci E Mirtilli Rossi: Cranberry Walnut Tart

Sun, 22 Feb 2009 16:34:26 -0500

This recipe comes from the 1998 Recipes of the Five Brothers: Volume I cookbook by Lipton. My mother made this once, and it was delicious. It is, however, very tart - so add more sugar to the cranberry filling if tart is not your thing. The recipe is for both the dough and the filling, and prep time includes 1 hour chill time. -- posted by SeaChelle

Cranberry Apple Tart

Sun, 01 Mar 2009 18:17:28 -0500

It's easy to love apple pie. Turning out the perfect crust? Not so easy. Which is why this apple and dried cranberry tart does away with the hard part without sacrificing the joy of baking. This recipe uses purchased pizza dough to create a thin crust that is topped with tart apple slices.For a nice finish, dust the tart with powdered sugar, or a blend of powdered sugar and cinnamon. If you'd prefer a more traditional crust, a prepared pie crust also could be used. But pizza crust lends a nice chew that works well with the tender apple slices. Be sure to let the dough come to room temperature before rolling it. The dried cranberries can be soaked in water or juice for 15 minutes before using. This isn't necessary, but it makes them plump and juicy. Be sure to drain them well before placing them on the tarts. -- posted by Jess4Freedom

Honey-Glazed Peach Tart With Mascarpone Cream

Sun, 01 Mar 2009 18:23:38 -0500

Top it with some whipped mascarpone, and youve just made some humble peaches very happy. -- posted by Jess4Freedom

Apple-Wine Tart

Fri, 27 Mar 2009 14:41:48 -0400

If I want something baked that isn't gluten-free, I hire my DMIL who makes the most adorable cakes and tarts. This tart's story is quite funny: My DFIL loved collecting wines, although he had no idea about which wine is storable and which not. He just loved making holidays at the Mosel and buy interesting looking Mosel-wines, generally white wines. Unluckily he mostly loved collecting the bottles, but not drinking the wine, so he left a whole cellar of wine bottles when he passed away. For about one year DMIL talked about somehow getting rid of those wines, making German "Weincreme" or giving them away as a present, because none of us liked that stuff. DH then pointed out that we couldn't give it away as a present as we didn't know whether the wine actually was still drinkable (if it ever had been). Finally DMIL decided to make this apple wine tart for a summer bbq we had. The afternoon she came over with the tart she was all red in the face, and uncovering the plate she giggled and said that evidently she had just catched the only bottle of *red* wine, and when she noticed her mistake it was too late. So instead of an all "white" tart we had this funny white and red one - which was a big hit! Every single female at the party asked for the recipe, and all agreed that it looks much more interesting with red wine than with white. Prep time is a guess because I didn't make the tart myself; it doesn't include resting time overnight -- posted by Mia in Germany

Tantalizing Raspberry Tarts

Sun, 29 Mar 2009 20:35:43 -0400

Another recipe from "The Anne of Green Gables Cookbook": "The little girls of Avonlea school always pooled their lunches, and to eat three raspberry tarts all alone or even to share them only with one's best chum would have forever and ever branded as "awful mean" the girl who did it. And yet, when the tarts were divided among ten girls you just got enough to tantalize you. " (from "Anne of Green Gables" by L.M. Montgomery). Times are estimated and do not include cooling time beyond the initial 15 minutes (included in cooking time). The original recipe did not specify the size of package of frozen berries, so I guessed a 10 oz package based on the fresh raspberry substitution. -- posted by Halcyon Eve

Glazed Fresh Berry Pie

Sat, 04 Jul 2009 14:19:30 -0400

This is an absolutely scrumptious pie, based on one originally published in The Vancouver Sun. With its fresh summer berries piled high in a baked pie shell and a glaze poured over top, it makes a nice change from traditional pies, where the fruit is cooked. It makes a wonderful summer dessert with a dollop of sweetened whipped cream on top. (I am from Canada, but for you Americans, it would make a wonderful 4th of July dessert (strawberries, blueberries AND whipped cream) (smiles). The original recipe in The Sun called for fresh raspberries (2 cups for the glaze and 6 cups for the filling), and it's wonderful with that too, but raspberry season is very short, and this strawberry/blueberry filling is wonderful too. I have yet to try it with blackberries, but might do that this summer too .... -- posted by JacquelynLee

Tarte Aux Abricots - Glazed French Apricot Tart With Almonds

Mon, 06 Jul 2009 14:12:06 -0400

This is my favourite type of French fruit tart, even more so than apple tart! Our local Patisserie makes a wonderful Tarte aux Abricots, but they are quite expensive and VERY large, much too big for the two of us when we have no B and B guests! So, I have been tinkering in the kitchen again, and have come up with this recipe. You MUST use fresh apricots for this - tinned ones are too soft and too sweet. Plus, I love the slightly tart flavour that the fresh apricots lend to the flavours of this tart. The ground almonds are scattered over the base of the short crust pastry case to stop it becoming soggy during cooking; they also provide a complimentary flavour to the apricots. A classic French tart that will make a delightful ending to any special meal or for afternoon tea. Serve this tart with fresh whipped cream or crème fraiche. -- posted by French Tart

Apple Crisp

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 13:07:34 -0400

This recipe came from my Aunt Betty (yes, I had an aunt named Betty; yes, she made Apple Crisp; yes, I was reluctant to title the recipe 'Apple Brown Betty' or Aunt Betty's Apple Crisp for fear people wouldn't believe me). This recipe is similar to recipe #140088 but with enough differences to make it unique. -- posted by Obag

Nanna Eatts Lemon Curd Pie

Wed, 09 Dec 2009 18:08:33 -0500

Lemon Curd pie with a sweet biscuit base, This was my Nanna's Mums recipe, Nanna used to make it for me every school holidays when I would go and stay with her. It was a real treat. Be careful not to stop stirring the curd whilst over the heat as if it begins to stick it will change the taste completely. Yoyo's are the best for the base. -- posted by BeeJaye

Gateau Basque (French Custard or Jam Tart)

Wed, 30 Dec 2009 07:51:55 -0500

Another great recipe from Dorie Greenspan. It is a traditional dessert from the Pays Basque region of France with a double cookie-like crust and a custard or jam filling (use Recipe #405945). It's not overly sweet and can be enjoyed any time of day. It's very sturdy and therefore good for transporting. You can use different fillings like blueberry jam, sweet cranberry relish, or even lemon curd. This simple dessert is best plain or with a little whipped cream or ice cream. Doug requires at least 30 minutes to chill. Storing: Wrapped well, the jam-filled cake will keep for a day or so at room temperature. You can also keep the cream-filled cake overnight, but it will need to be refrigerated. However, because refrigeration can dry cakes. It's best to serve the cream-filled cake the day it is made. -- posted by blucoat

Apple Tart Tatin

Mon, 11 Jan 2010 11:51:11 -0500

From the delectable crust to the luscious caramel/apple filling, this beautiful tart from Chef Anne Burrell is a taste delight! You will need a 10" nonstick, ovenproof pan. A couple of suggestions I got from FN: you may want to cut up a couple of extra apples to pack into the caramel since the apples cook down so much; OR, after baking and before unmolding, drain off excess liquid and use it to sweeten the mascarpone instead of sugar. Recipe does not reflect inactive prep time. I hope you enjoy this as much as we do! -- posted by ninja
