Oh, cursed keys! Oh, wretched fingers! Yes, well, it seems I’ve published this week’s post a few days in advance. Haha. Guess what? It’s a Fig, Plum and Hazelnut Tart. It won’t show the usual grammatical felicity only possible when I have time to send it to the monks atop Mount Athos for a prepublication editorial review. Such is life. It does taste great. And just in case a death in the family or a sinkhole in the backyard prevented you from following Jody’s suggested regime of making a tart shell a day for practice, this gives you a little advance notice–the clock is ticking…
You can find the post here. Enjoy. Ken
P.S. If anyone finds any horrible bits awry, please don’t hesitate to pass them along and I’ll update the post. Thanks.

Thank you. Ken
Tks for you.
When you wrote “Instead, throw the tarts on a sheet pan in a 450º oven”, I think you mean plums instead of tarts
I did–and I changed it. Thank you. Ken
Thank you. Got it. If you revisit the post, you’ll see it (and some other things) changed. Ken
Oh what wonderful creations you weave, when first to start to plana meal! Bravo. Always,
Beautiful!
Ah, the monks on Mount Atho. If only they edited other blogs too (like mine).
They are a very nitpicky crew. Ken
Bummer!
It happens. :-) We’ll all survive – just make dessert a little earlier this week. Thanks for the sympathy.
