I made this tart yesterday and it came out absolutely heavenly. However, I'd like to know how you got it so smooth, and what crust recipe you used. Did you pour the mixture straight into the crust without refrigerating it in a separate container?
Hi Rachel,
There are several versions of this recipe in cookbooks and online. I've worked from the version printed in "The Cook's Book: http://www.amazon.com/The-Cooks-Book-Techniques-worlds/dp/0756613027 (both the crust and filling came from that book)
It's been several years since I made this, but I believe I poured the filling directly into the crust, through a strainer.
That's what I thought. I strained it, and it did come out smooth in that respect, however, the recipe indicates you should pour it into container, refrigerate, then mix it up again, then pour into shell, which i believe doesn't have the same smooth effect, as it looks like a homemade pie rather than a gourmet pastry. Thank you so much for response. I will try it next time by pouring straight into crust.
