A Repertoire of Tarts with Nicole Plue
April 26 @ 9:00 am - 3:00 pm
Hailing back to the time of the great Egyptians, recipes for tarts have spanned centuries. Seen in ancient Greece, the Middle Ages of England and France, and Medieval times, Tarts have come a long way from simple ingredients to become a beloved and sometimes truly decadent dessert in bakeries around the world.
This is a hands-on class with demonstrations where you will learn techniques for mixing, rolling and baking crisp buttery tart shells and then creating a variety of fillings and finishes, both sweet and savory. Projects include Citrus Tart with Brown Sugar Meringue, Salted Milk Chocolate Tart with Banana Jam, Seasonal Linzer Tart, Caramel Nut Tart and more.
