A useful article, and that many younger folks may not have considered using the tails. (I always include full sprigs when making stock, for example. Thank you. Comment #23176 posted on august 4th 2025 at 13:26 Per Dave. |
![]() Tart Tatin |
Unfortunately, it's almost impossible to get hard caramel on top of a tarte tatin, as the apples give off juice during cooking, which combined with the heat and the butter, liquefies the caramel that forms. One of the only possibilities I can see would be to place a thin disc of caramel on top of the tart once it has been turned out, which would have been cooked separately and in advance. A thin disc of caramel, or broken caramel for that matter, would be easier to make. PS: Thank you very much for your support of the site Comment #23171 posted on july 23th 2025 at 07:11 Per jh. |

I think that some time I tried a home made tart tatin that had a tiny bit of hard dark caramel on top. Is that possible? I love the memory, but I tried making this recipe a few times already varying things like sugar temperature, when to add the apples, when to add the butter... and I am thinking that it can't be done and maybe I'm misremembering... Or maybe you can suggest some way to accomplish that hard caramel? Comment #23169 posted on july 22th 2025 at 17:56 Per hmijail. |
![]() French onion soup |
Adding a little flour will make the soup a little thicker, as the flour acts a little like a roux. Comment #23153 posted on june 23th 2025 at 19:59 Per jh. |

Why is the flour needed? I hear some people like it there, others hate it... Comment #23152 posted on june 23th 2025 at 13:36 Per hmijail. |

Yes, but it's a caramel, the color is a very easy indicator that you can adjust to your taste too. If you want to use a thermometer anyway, a caramel start at 160°C (checkout cooking sugar). Comment #23138 posted on may 2nd 2025 at 06:28 Per jh. |

It would be useful to have the temperature of the sugar at stage 6. I guess that if we don't cook the sugar enough the tart will turn into a soup... Comment #23137 posted on may 1st 2025 at 14:17 Per hmijail@gmail.com. |
![]() Dandelion flower jelly |
I shall certainly try this - it looks delightful. I have often used the dandelion leaves in a mixed salad, but never made this jelly! (And we have plenty of dandelions today!) Comment #23136 posted on april 28th 2025 at 12:24 Per David. |
