It all started two years ago with Laurie wondering if anyone would bake with her the whole book 'Baking from My Home to Yours' by Dorie Greenspan and now we are 308 bakers !!
To celebrate we could choose between Tarte Tatin and Cocoa-Buttermilk Birthday Cake.รน
I really felt tatiny on New Year's Eve ( maybe wishing for a total flip-over?) so I made the apple tarte as in Dorie's recipe and a savoury shallott's one from an italian cookbook ('Fare Festa' Michela e Paola Brengola).
In the apple one I used a sweet crust while for the savoury tarte I used a store bought puff pastry.
You can find this week's recipes on Laurie's blog I'll give you the similar recipe for the shallots tarte .
RECIPE
1 Kg of big shallots (mine weren't so big but I added some fresh cipolline)
90 gr brown sugar
90 gr butter
Puff Pastry
Melt butter and sugar in an oven proof pan and arrange as neatly as you can the quartered shallots on top. Let the sugar melt and become caramel color on a very slow flame (around 20 minutes) and let cool. Cut a disc out of your pastry slightly larger than your pan and put on top of the shallots tucking the hanging in (?). Bake in a 200° C oven for around 20 25 minutes. Reverse the tarte on a serving dish while the sugar is still warm.

Very lovely TATIN indeed. My family favorite apple dessert.

Wow--2 tartes! That does deserve a new word: tatiny! I made the apple one, but now know what to do with some of the puff pastry still in my freezer. Yum!
Two tartes, and they both look delicious!
Very cool - I love the savoury version Natalia. Happy New Year!
What? A shallot tart? I am so going to make this. Once I've lost some weight and can walk without waddling. Your tarte tatin looks great but that shallot one...incredible!
These are beautiful! Love the savory tart. Another great recipe to try! Thanks!
Wow, a savory tarte! How wonderful. They both look great. I went with the cake this week (delicious!) but I'm hoping to make the tarte tatin soon :)
Wow! Never thought about doing a savory tart. All kinds of possibilities...
Entrambe sono bellissime, e quella di scalogni deve essere deliziosa.
