Strawberry Semolina Tart
The strawberry-picking excursion to Mr Knightley’s home, Donwell Abbey, is one of my favourite parts of Emma, which also happens to be my favourite Jane Austen novel. If any member of the party had returned home with leftovers, and I happened to be there to greet them, I’d have suggested they make this tart.
