My Dogs Leg Trembles When It Sits

Tarte "cherries and pistachio" by Pierre Herm


's useless, I was at the triptych of cherries, pistachios and Pierre Herme "I can not resist.
In 2008 I had to try this delicious short .
So the other day when I came across this post , again I gave in!

tart A lot of heat, where the butter abounds, there is no denying, but just take it in the office or at a dinner with friends, make many small slices, and consciousness is in place!
The problem is that after tasting it, a slice is not enough! :-)) Is sublime, like almost everything that is signed Pierre Hermé.
The preparation seems complicated, but if you read carefully it is not.
speeds much preparation have already prepared crust in freezer.
I have always used the pastry crust of Herm, already published a few posts back for a pie.
The cake is very sweet, so my advice is to use as a basis appunto una briseè (come peraltro consigliato da Hermè) e di non sostuirla con una pasta frolla,perchè renderebbe il dolce stucchevole.
Per le ciliegie,io ho riportato il quantitativo della ricetta,ma per me sono troppe,io ne ho messe meno,anche perchè le ho sottratte ad una confettura che stavo preparando,ma d'altronde quando si cede alle tentazioni,tutto è possibile!!
