Fresh Fruit Tart

Strawberry Fields Forever

With two cases of fresh strawberries gotten from the Amish Produce Stand,
for $1.25 a quart, I've been busy in the kitchen creating strawberry chiffon pie,
strawberry preserves and syrup, strawberry tarts and freezing the remaining berries
for spring time strawberry rhubarb pies.


Tart, (not the slang word) is an open-face single-crust pie, in that the fruit is not cooked
and is not as sweet as a pie.  The tart can be dressed up or down from a simple savory
quiche to a fancy sweet pastry filled with creme patissiere.

Fruit tarts must be assembled just before serving, for perfection of texture and fresh fruit flavor.
This tart consists of a pastry shell, pastry cream, fresh fruit and glazed with strawberry jam.




Strawberry tarts are delicious

Happy valentine day to you'll
