Caramelised ideas

November 5, 2010

When I think about the food that my mum or my grandpa were used to prepare to me when I was a kid caramelized fruit like grapes and whole nuts on a wooden stick comes straight to my mind.I believe it is almost an ancestral idea that as a memory flows trough my tongue and gives me a kind of craving.This is what I would call a caramelised idea in your mind.

That is why today I have decided to give it a go to a recipe that I cooked just once in my life but that can satisfy in some way  my desire for caramelised fruit.So it is going to be tart tatin as I have got available some wonderful english Braeburn apples.If it comes out as it is supposed to be with its wonderful thick layer of caramelised apples on a rich and crunchy puff pastry it will be a appreciated treat not just for me but for the whole family. Maybe served with a big dollop of vanilla flavored whipped cream….

Well… rainy friday afternoon just before bonfire night, my wife and I are smiling while enjoying a generous slice of this tarte tatin with whipped cream…so so comforting.

“...thank you for an amazing evening! Your food surpassed our expectations and we thoroughly enjoyed your company.Thank you again for all your efforts and we look forward to the next opportunity we have to enjoy your wonderful cooking.”
