Strawberry Tart

Oven, in the book's wordsA brisk oven

Ingredients

Directions

The book says “a brisk oven”. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps is the modern equivalent, not the book's own figure.

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. Prick a few holes in the bottom of the tart pastry with a fork.

  3. Bake the tart for 10 to 15 minutes until lightly golden.

  4. Let the pastry cool slightly, then fill it with preserve.

  5. Cut out stars or leaves from the extra pastry, bake them, and place them on top of the tart.
