Apple Rosette Frangipane Tart

This is one of those desserts that looks impressive while not being that difficult to create. I will admit that my rosettes aren't picture perfect, but they get the idea across...and they are tasty.

Ingredients
Tart Crust
  • 1-1/2 C flour
  • 1/2 C ground almonds
  • 1/2 C powdered sugar (prefer Imperial Sugar)
  • pinch of salt
  • 3/4 C butter
  • 2 to 3 T water
  • 2 to 3 T vodka (use whatever alcohol you want - or more water)
Frangipane
  • 1 C ground almonds
  • 1/4 C granulated sugar (prefer Imperial Sugar)
  • 1/4 C powdered sugar (prefer Imperial Sugar)
  • 2/3 C melted butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 t pure vanilla extract
  • 1 t pure almond extract
Rosettes
  • 4 apples, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 C honey
  • sugar for garnish, if you like
Procedure

Tart Crust
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Mix the flour, ground almonds, powdered sugar, and salt together; rub in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.

Alternatively stir in water and vodka, if using, until the mixture forms a ball. Roll out between two pieces of parchment paper. Press gently into a tart pan. Prick crust with a fork to prevent bubbling. Bake for 20 minutes at 350, or until a light golden brown. In the meantime, make the frangipane.


Frangipane
Mix everything together to form a paste. Once the tart crust is cooked, spread a layer of frangipane over the bottom. Bake for 20 minutes. While the frangipane is baking, prepare your rosettes.


Rosettes
Thinly slice the apples with a mandolin slicer.


Lay the slices in a row and roll them to form rosettes. Press the apple flowers into the partially baked frangipane. Repeat until the pan is full. Drizzle with honey and return to the oven for 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool for 15 to 20 minutes before removing the tart from the mold.


Remove tart from the pan. Sprinkle with some sugar for "sparkle", if you like. Slice and serve.

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect. The latter has digestive benefits and I love to do that, but when I need that pop of sour flavor quickly, I whip up quick pickles that are ready in as little as a day or two. I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them! Ingredients  makes 1 quart jar radishes, trimmed and sliced organic red onions, peeled and thinly sliced (I used a mandolin slicer) 3/4 C vinegar (I used white distilled vinegar) 3/4 C water 3 T organic granulated sugar 1 T salt (I used some grey sea salt) 6 to 8 grinds of black pepper Proce

Aloo Tiki {Pakistan}

To start off our Pakistani culinary adventure, I started us off with aloo tiki - potato cutlets. I'm always game for tasty street food. I found a couple of different recipes and incorporated those together for this version. Ingredients 6-8 small red potatoes, scrubbed 1 T cumin seeds 1 T fresh chopped parsley 1/2 t ground coriander 1 t minced garlic Procedure Boil the potatoes until they are tender. Drain and let cool. Mash the potatoes. Traditionally they are mashed without their skins. I left the skins on. In a small pan, toast the cumin seeds on high heat until the begin to give off an aroma and begin to darken. Remove from heat and transfer to a plate to keep them from cooking any more. Blend all of the spices into the mashed potatoes, then shape into small patties. If you wet your hands, the potato mixture won't stick to them. Heat a splash of oil in a large, flat-bottom pan. Dip each patty into beaten egg and carefully place in the oil. P
