Let’s Get Re-tart-ed

By | On Sep 12, 2011

Fall brings many wonderful things, both black-eyed peas to eat and their music -hence the title. It also brings some amazing fruit harvests. My thanks to my friends at Moran’s Organic fruit farm (link is here:  Moran’s Organic Fruit Farm) for some delicious and wholesome produce. I don’t think I’ve ever had a better persimmon. As a fall treat consider something like this little pear and persimmon tartlet; from scratch flaky and tender pie crust, delicious pear and persimmon slices layered with some caramel and a dab of whipped cream and lime zest. That’s reason enough for everyone to get re-tart-ed!

    I have never tried persimmon in a tarte; this looks so good (and your description is so mouthwatering) I was imagining swallowing it in one bite; no, savoring it bit by bit. In any case, fabulous!!!!! Where is the recipe>???

      Haha! I know better than to try and get a pastry recipe past you! The crust was tender and flaky, I think you would have passed me on that pastry challange!
