Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.
  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.
  • Grill and open flame. Keep sleeves, hair and tea towels away from the flame, and stay with the grill while it's lit. Barbecue outdoors only, never in a closed space.
  • Hot sugar. Hot sugar sticks to skin and burns far hotter than boiling water: don't touch or taste it. Keep a bowl of cold water close, and keep children away while it cooks.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Chilled sweet short paste (proportions for 1 cup of flour), page 633 Quarter, core, and peel the apples.
  2. Cut into length- wise slices 4 inch thick.
  3. Toss in a bowl with the sugar and optional cinnamon.
  4. You should have about 10 cups of apples.
  5. Butter the baking dish heavily especially on the bot- tom.
  6. Sprinkle half the sugar in the bottom of the dish and arrange a third of the apples over it.
  7. Sprinkle with a third of the melted butter.
  8. Repeat with a layer of half the remaining apples and butter, then a final layer of apples and butter.
  9. Sprinkle the rest of the sugar over the apples.
  10. Roll out the pastry to a thickness of 4 inch.
  11. Cut it into a circle the size of the top of the baking dish.
  12. Place it over the apples, allowing its edges to fall Aluminum foil, if needed A fireproof serving dish Powdered sugar, if needed 2 cups heavy cream, or créme fraiche, page 16 against the inside edge of the dish.
  13. Cut 4 or 5 holes about ¥% inch long in the top of the pastry to allow cooking steam to escape.
  14. | Bake in lower third of preheated oven for 45 to 60 minutes.
  15. If pastry begins to brown too much, cover lightly with aluminum foil.
  16. Tart is done when you tilt the dish and see that a thick brown syrup rather than a light liquid exudes from the apples between the crust and the edge of the dish.
  17. Immediately unmold the tart onto serving dish.
  18. If the apples are not a light caramel brown, which is often the case, sprinkle rather heavily with powdered sugar and run under a moderately hot broiler for several minutes to caramelize the surface lightly.
  19. Keep warm until serving time, and accompany with a-bowl of cream.
  20. (May also be served cold, but we prefer it warm.)
