I started seeing berries at the farmers market. I remember we had very big blackberries last year when we came here for closing of our house. They made my daughter who never had liked blackberries completely change her opinion on blackberries. So we've been looking forward to having them again. I also found tiny raspberries. They are half of normal raspberries in a grocery store. They are very sweet and I can't pass them since they are so cute looking!
So I made Raspberry Custard Tart for July 4th.
We came back from Florida 4 p.m. and I was baking the tart right away....
It was such a short trip. We left on Friday night and drove back on Monday. But it was really fun taking our dog to beach. Although he is afraid of water. I hope he will get use to it but there are no beaches where we live.... We need to look for a lake, I guess.
Besides the berries, South Carolina peaches are in season. So I baked Peach and Blackberry Tart one day. Instead of almond cream, I made walnut cream. I love changing out the nuts to make cream. My favorite is pecan cream with brown sugar. It tastes very country-like to me.
I was happy that I used up my berries very tastefully, but I saw them again at the market yesterday. I couldn't walk away from them.... So they were thrown into mini Lemon Cake.
I guess my baking with berries will continue for a while until they stop selling them at the farmers market.
