I decided to follow Orangette’s pastry recipe exactly - using all butter this time. Fresh apricots were on the shopping list until I spotted some plump juicy blackberries in [...]

This recipe comes from Joanne Chen, author of The Taste of Sweet: Our Complicated Love Affair with Our Favorite Treats .

As a native southern Californian, I grew up with a rather different appreciation for Fall. Changing colors and colder temperatures were distant notions that existed mainly in photographs and calendars. Now that I live in the Midwest, I have come to witness the power of the changing seasons. Not only do our bodies have to [...]

[Almost like my childhood's tart - Black pepper, honey and apple tart] My dad makes the finest apple tart ever. I mean, he truly does. The crust is thin and crisp. Although, he uses store-bough rolled shortcrust pastry, he gets it paper-thin by making good use of his favourite wooden rolling pin. The apples are soft, sweet [...]

Sunday night, along with roasted stuffed onions and that apple tart for dessert, I made Martha Stewart's Silky Braised Chicken with Wild Mushrooms and Pearl Onions for my family when they came over for dinner. But if you want to know if it was any good, you'll have a hard time getting a straight answer. [...]

Apples at their simplest can be their very finest. Sure, I love an oozy, heavily spiced and lidded apple pie, but I also think there is something matchless about apples, butter and sugar, baked until bubbly. This classic apple tart is from Alice Waters, but she says that it was actually Jacques Pépin who created [...]
