To make a tarte of strawberries
Wash your Strawberries and put them into your Tarte, and season them
with sugar, cynamon and Ginger, and put a little red wine into them.
note: I don't remember where I got the redaction, but I made this tart for
a May Day event which was the first feast I ever cooked. It was a baked
single-crust pie, piled high with ripe strawberries which had a wine-sugar-
spice syrup pour over them. The tarts were a hit and there were no
leftovers.
