How to break a fast


What better way to celebrate the breaking of the Yom Kippur fast than to view these images of samples from our daughter's pastry school graduation project (Tante Marie's Cooking School).

The theme was Herb Garden, and the items included:

Sage and brown butter cakes with walnuts and fried sage leaves;









Lemon thyme madeleines;










Strawberry puff pastry tart with mascarpone filling, basil leaves and balsamic syrup; apple tart with a rosemary crust (top picture) and mint chocolate truffles (bottom picture).


I sense that a cookbook may be in the offing, but in the meantime, please send samples!
