So you ready for the weekend guys?
Well, I certainly am. So remember when I asked you guys what you wanted to see this year? Well a few of you were specific and @nonameslefttouse said he wanted to see my tarts. So here you go.
Okay, you’re probably wanting to know what in the world a Chilean guava berry is. Also know as New Zealand cranberries, they are a berry that is native to South America and they grow all through the Andes where I used to live.
They are called “murta” down in Chile and they taste like, well you’d kind of just have to try one, but some people say they taste like apples, pineapple, or pears and I’ve even heard some say that they taste like vanilla and cotton candy. Personally, I think they taste a little like a pine tree and strawberry had a baby, but they’re very unique to say the least.
They don’t grow in my neighborhood now because I live back in Idaho, but I got these from some friends so I could make this tart. I wanted to do something simple but really good with them and a tart seemed like the perfect thing. Obviously most of you won’t be able to get your hands on them but that’s what I love about this tart, you can use any berry in their place. Oooh, I bet blueberries would be amazing or any wild berries you may have nearby. I know that when I start picking huckleberries this summer, those would be perfect too!
Other than using honey, which you can replace if you need to, I made this recipe completely vegan and it’s gluten free too. In fact, it’s even healthy enough for breakfast or afternoon snacking. Oh, and on more thing, the candied lemons were a first time thing for me but they definitely won’t be a last. You’ve got to try them! If you guys make this I’d love to hear what berries you use!
ALL CONTENT IS MINE AND ORIGINAL! All of these food photos were taken with my Nikon D5300 and my favorite Lens, the Nikon AF-S FX NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G. You can find out more in my INTRO POST.
And, by the way, to all the minnows out there, my intro post did a huge $0.21. The key to success on Steemit is to be consistent and persistent.
Also, a huge shoutout to @rigaronib for designing my logo!
