Tartology
Rustic fruit tarts are easy to make, look impressive, and taste great. You should probably be making them. But when I say they’re easy to make, I don’t mean to underplay Laurie’s estimable pastry skills. Examine the evidence.
We’ll be eating that in about an hour, if you’re in the neighborhood.

Rats, missed the annual blueberry tart. (I was in Princeton, which was simply a Festival of Humidity.)
What’s Laurie’s secret on the pastry? Didn’t this receipe have a little milk in it or something?

Tart crust is from the August/Sept. 2005 issue of Fine Cooking and is made from flour, butter, sugar, salt, 1 egg yolk, and 3 T milk. Chris, I’ll send you the recipe. We were thinking of you and would love to have you over for tart some time.
