DUE to boredom I tried to make my own tarte tatin and the result was…
not bad :) it was okay, not perfect but okay..
maybe next time it will be perfect :D :D :D
so, i want to share the recipe for it, for you to try as well makin it.
here it is
you will need:
5 kg dessert apples
70 g unsalted butter
185 g caster sugar
and a tart pastry
for the tart pastry you will need:
220 g plain flour
pinch of salt
150 g unsalted butter (chilled, diced)
1 eggyolk
procedures:
Tart pastry—-
- Sift the flour & salt into a large bowl, add the butter and rub in your finger tips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add the egg yolk and a little cold water (about 2-3 teaspoon) and mix with the blade of a pallete knife until the dough just starts to come together. Bring the dough together with your hands and shape into a ball. Wrap in cling film and put in the fridge to rest for at least 30 minutes.
Whole procedure—-
- Peel core and cut the apples into quarters, put the butter and sugar in a deep 25 cm (10 inch) frying pan with an oven proof handle. Heat until the butter and sugar have melted together. Arrange the apples tightly.
- Cook over low heat for 35-40 minutes or until the apple is soft, the caramel lighltly browned and any excess liquid has evaporated. Paste the apple with a pastry brush every often, so that the top is caramelized as well. Preheat the oven to 190 degrees celcius (375 degrees F/Gas 5).
- Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface into a circle slightly larger than the frying pan and about 3 mm (1/8 inch) thick. Lay the pastry over the apple and press down around the edge to enclose it completely. Roughly trim the edge of the pastry and then fold the edge back on itself to give a neat finish.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the pastry is golden and cooked. Remove from the oven and leave the rest for 5 minutes before turning out.
and there you go, you have your own Tarte Tatin, enjoy! :)
You feel very strongly for another person and want to know if what you’re feeling is the real deal. Ask yourself these difficult questions.
Difficulty: Hard
Time Required: About 5 minutes depending on the situation usually a lot longer
Here’s How:
- Ask yourself: ‘Would I be willing to let her/him go if I believed it was the best thing?’
- Ask yourself: ‘Am I willing to wait for this person if s/he is not ready to have sex?’
- Ask yourself: ‘Would I feel the same way if s/he gained weight?’
- Ask yourself: ‘Am I willing to sacrifice my dreams to allow her/his dreams to come true?’
- Ask yourself: ‘Do I respect and admire her/him?’
- Ask yourself: ‘Would I feel the same way if s/he got sick?’
- Ask yourself: ‘If you two were in an argument, would you feel the same way?’
- If you answered ‘No’ to any of these questions, think about why you gave that answer. Is it a lack of trust? Is it because you’re afraid? Is it selfishness? Do you need more time to get to know each other?
- If you answered ‘Yes’ to all of these questions, wow, you feel very strongly about this person. It sounds like you’re in love!
Tips:
- If you’re wondering if you’re in love, this is often because you might base a decision on your answer. Be careful! Decisions should not be based just on the feeling of ‘love’. You should also look at respect, commitment and trust.
- Ask yourself what it means to you if you believe you’re in love. Don’t put pressure on yourself to define what you’re feeling as love. And don’t let anyone else pressure you either.
- If you’re not sure of the answer right now. Give it some time and ask yourelf these questions a few months or a year down the road. You might be surprised to see how your feelings change.

i hate it when guys really can’t stick to their words..
i have seen the melason shows via youtube and honestly, im kinda pissed off by what’s jaysons doin with melai’s emotions.. grrr..
hey, wat’s the difference between “entertaining” with “like”? jayson once said to his other mates “ine-entertain ko sila pero hindi ko sila gusto”. what was that? sadyang napaka landi talaga ng mga lalake..
i hope ill not be ending up like a man hater, but i don’t like that kind of guys..
and for those gals out there who are born to be biatch, keep up the good work! you’re making the good ones really get tough on their emotions.. (figurative language)
what ive been trying to say here is that, man is A leopard, he can’t change his spot. They were naturally born to be like that, and cannot change who they are..
so guys, please, don’t ever ever say to our (girls) faces that u’ll not gona hurt us, esp.the words “hindi kita lolokohin” or “hindi ako magsisinungaling sayo”, cause from that statement itself implies the truth, YOU’RE A LIAR!
that’s all! :)
