Fresh Fig Tart

Saturday, August 24, 2013


I realize I haven't written in over three months, but this afternoon, as I searched for a recipe I hope to make soon, I remembered one of the reasons why I actually started this food blog.  I wanted a convenient way to recall the recipes I really liked and want to make again.  For me, it comes in handy that I can just type in the name of my blog, go to the Recipe Box where all the recipes I’ve ever posted are listed, and find what I’m looking for.  Now, I’ll add this delicious fig tart to the list.

More than a month ago we took a trip to Vicenza, to Giacomo’s parents house, to find a bounty of fruit and vegetables, all ripe for the picking.  The fruits, at this time, were the ones most begging to be picked and none more so than the dark delicious figs that hung from two tall trees next to the house.

Now that I’ve graduated, now that I have my diploma in hand and I’m in the workplace, I can admit to the world what I’ve already admitted to most of my friends. I used my final presentation for Portuguese as an excuse to bake.
