Before and after

mirabelles   tarte aux mirabelles

Mirabelle is the cutest name ever for a fruit, and when the tiny plums started appearing on menus and in the market, I wanted to experiment with them, too. And thus, this rustic mirabelle tart was born. It has a crunchy whole wheat olive oil crust and walnut filling, and a wholesome sweetness (though it could have been a little sweeter — next time I'd add another tablespoon of honey, and a sprinkle of cinnamon).

Want to make your own plum tart? I was inspired by these recipes on Chocolate...

Robin That dessert Mirabelle looks yummy. What does the fruit taste like on its own. I am jealous you get to go to France, etc. My daughter wants to be an author, maybe when she is rich she will take old ma along on her trips to exotic places, one can only hope. Good post.
