custard tarts

It is tasteless. Without flavour. Devoid of a treat for the taste buds.

Flavoursome, it is NOT.

Greg, YOU are a custard tart.

Tasteless
Without flavour
Devoid of a treat for Queenzone

Perhaps if YOU started doing something more productive, the tarts you're disappointed in would taste better.

Have a great day and maybe mix in a salad.[/QUOTE]

XDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
nice...

Custard is overrated. You want a jam tart.

I refer you to my Point 3, above.

[QUOTE][QUOTENAME]new one wrote: [/QUOTENAME]This is a strnage one to be responing to. Given that custard is made from egg yolk, cream/milk,sugar and vanilla I suggest that your one is simply lacking in either sugar or vanilla. Go to a good quality bakers and you should get a nice one or even better make your own. But don't skimp on the vanilla or sugar. A nice touch is to caramelise the topp using demerara sugar and a very hot grill or blow torch. I would imagine someone like Delia would have a good recipe.

Plus I aggree that the seriousness of a topic is definetly in the eye of the beholder[/QUOTE]

VERY WELL SAID, NEW ONE. YOU HAVE A SENSE A HUMOUR TOO... SADLY LACKING ON THIS SITE, DON'T YOU THINK. WE SHOULD START OUR OWN CLUB.

1. For all those of you shouting at your spit-covered screen, "POST IT IN THE RIGHT AREA!" I have. This is the right place. This is SERIOUS.

Well, this might be serious, but how is it related to Queen? This area isn't for ANY serious topic, but for Queen-related serious topics.

THIS BIT>>> And the fact that you're their archivist doesn't automatically make whatever you eat a serious Queen-related subject.[/QUOTE]

YES IT DOES. OF COURSE IT DOES. I AM QUEEN'S ARCHIVIST. THEIR ACTUAL ARCHIVIST. DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND.

[QUOTE][QUOTENAME]cmsdrums wrote: [/QUOTENAME]Having seen Andi Peters on Masterchef last week making a proper, genuine custard tart (ie like a pie that is cut into slices and not one of these little individual 'tartlettes' I think you have a problem with), I can vouch, on the advice of the genuine master chef watching over him, that a custard tart is actually very very tricky to make.

I would suggest that your baker is probably not a highly skilled chef, but a greasy haired spotty school leaving oik in an apron (ie not a master baker, but something similar sounding). Herein lies your dilemma - to get a genuine proper custard tart you need to buy from a specialist, and not your local co-op, Mace etc...

I would suggest Fortnum and Mason on Piccadilly (or try asking Andi Peters to knock one up for you (make sure you correctly use UP, and not OUT though in that request) or you may get a completely different kind of sticky sweet surprise....

good day Sir[/QUOTE]

May i suggest that if decent tarts can't be found go for ice cream instead. Or if decent tarts can be found couple tart with ice cream for a true treat. Tarts containing fresh fruit. Why do people in Britain like jam and custard, pudding so much anyway? And why baked beans for breakfast?

Greg try the apple pie from Bakkerij Kuyt in Amsterdam the hext time you visit that city (if you ever do), then you will forget your appetite for the custard pie. Better advice you won't get (LOL)

Ahhh-Ooooo Werewolves of London!

don't feed the troll ... he's not worth it ...

Its got to be a vanilla slice every time ;o)

I was watching Futurama last night, and it was an episode where Leela was dating the mayor's aide. And everywhere they went, he would go on and on about his power as the mayor's aide. He even had a shiny badge that got him prime seating at empty restaurants, and such. I can't help but see a parallel between him and Mr. Brooks.
