SECTION IV TARTS ’ Make crust as recipes for ‘‘Short Crust for Tarts and Pies,’’ roll out thin and cover greased tin plate, or small patty tins, with the crust. Spread over with jam, marmalade, lemon cheese, etc. Mince pies should have crust top and bottom. Apple tart made with a layer of finely chopped apples, sprinkled over with sugar, covered over with the crust, and served hot, is delicious, and, when apples are dear, makes an economical sweet. All covered tarts should be sprinkled over with fine sugar before being brought to the table. Tarts made with golden syrup should have a few breadcrumbs sprinkled over the syrup ; this prevents the syrup running out and takes away the rather too-sweet flavour of the syrup. When open tart is made on large plate, the edge of the crust should be pinched at intervals, or an ornamental edge made with spoon or fork. The pieces of paste cut off when shaping the tart must be rolled out and cut into long thin strips, and then used for decorating the tart, either diagonally or in squares. Tarts made with ATORA are better and more digestible when eaten warm. SHORT CRUST (FOR TARTS AND PIES)—No. |
