RECIPE

 

  
 
Sweetmeat Tarts (Puite d'Amour).
Roll and cut puff paste, as patties, with a scollop-cutter,
but much smaller ; when baked, put marmalade, jam, jelly,
custards, or cream into them. Or you may line a tart pan
with puff paste, put in marmalade or sweetmeat, and cover
it over with slips of paste, according to fancy. In general
the paste is made like basket-work. Bake and glaze with
French glazing.
