Tart Love: Sassy, Savory, and Sweet
About this ebook
What is a tart? It’s an open-faced, skinny kind of pie. It never has a double crust (like an apple pie might) and can be filled with anything from custard to Camembert.
Here is a short, delicious course in tart making. Filled with sweet and savory recipes for marvelous little pies, Tart Love also guides you in using seasonal fruits and produce to create scrumptious, palate-pleasing desserts and main-dish tarts.
Holly Herrick shares methods and recipes for fresh tart versions of southern favorites, like Feisty Fried Shrimp and Grits Pockets, savory Lowcountry Boil Puff Tart, and sweet Lavender Buttermilk Tart. Her step-by-step instructions will have you making perfect pastry in no time, and master pastry recipes will let you make all the recipes in this book plus creations of your own.
