Tuesday with Dorie - French Pear Tart
This special three kings day version of Tuesday with Dorie was Chosen by the author herself… Dorie Greenspan has chosen the French Pear Tart. This tart was very good. If you were to make it all in one day a little time consuming but I did a little for the last few nights so it was not that bad. The recipe had me do some new things for me. I poached pears and made almond cream for the first time. Poaching the pears was not near as hard as I thought that it would be. I used the left over syrup in a muffin recipe as the liquid. For the glaze I used some peach jam.

Poaching pears was easier than I'd expected, too, for some reason. Can't believe I hadn't done it before.
TWD is always good for giving that extra push.
Ooooooo, peach jam on this would have been great! Beautiful job!
Hmmmm, I ended up tossing my poaching liquid. I'll have to save it next time!
I forgot to glaze mine.
It was still good with the confectioners sugar on top.
Your tart looks yummy! Great job.
