well, I have this recipe a friend gave me along time ago from
Sallets, Humbles and Shrewsberry Cakes by R A Beeke, and I think
somewhere in De Platina there's one for cherry tart. I only have
excerpts from it, will see what I can find.
Strawberry Tart
1 quart strawberries ( wash , drain and de-stem)
1/2 cup full bodied red wine
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp each ginger and cinnamon
1 T cornstarch
1 backed pie shell
whipped cream
in a saucepan, heat the sugar wine ginger and cinnamon. Dissolve the
cornstarche in just enough wine to make a smooth paste, then add to
the saucepan and bring to a boil, stir constantly. Simmer about 3
minutes or until the sauce thickens. Arrange the berries inthe pie
shell and pour the syrup over, Chill thoroughly, serve with whipped
cream.
Not sure of the accuracy of the source ( can anyone tell me?) but I
can vouch for the tart, it's tasty!
