Tartes: 40 Creations, 100 Recettes (Aurélien Trottier)

NOTE: This book is written in French and English

A superb, bilingual French/English book by the pastry chef from Angers, who runs four "Artisan Passionné" boutiques and has been a member of Relais Desserts International since 2009. TARTES is more than just a recipe book. It's an invitation into the world of Aurélien Trottier, a work designed primarily for pastry professionals and ambitious amateurs. The recipes are grouped by category, adapt to the rhythm of the seasons, and blend creations from the past and present.

In spring, strawberry, grapefruit, and pistachio, but also rhubarb and rice pudding, or raspberry and redcurrant.

For summer, apricot and verbena, blueberry and elderflower, peach and vanilla...

In autumn, quince and jasmine tea, and caramel apple take center stage.

And in winter, it's the season for lemon meringue pie, clementine and speculoos pie, or even a pink lychee combination.

Not to forget the timeless classics: 100% chocolate, Black Forest-style tart, hazelnut flan tart, or 100% vanilla.

For each recipe, the equipment used is detailed (precise reference, diameter, height, brand, shape), as well as the approximate weights of the different components of the tart or tartlet. A cross-section illustration also helps to identify the assembly and inserts.
