$200.00
sold out

June marks the beginning of summer fruit season at the farmers market. In this workshop, Fuyuko’s Kitchen will teach you how to make handcrafted Cherry Tartlets and Flan Tartlets with fresh berries.

You will learn the basics of pie dough, including rolling and shaping tartlet shells, blind baking, preparing custard filling for the flan tartlets, and pitting and cooking fresh cherries for the cherry filling.

Fuyuko will also share helpful tips for preparing components in advance, so you do not have to complete everything in one day.

At the end of class, each student will take home two of each tartlet made during the workshop.

WORKSHOP PROCEDURE

The workshop begins with a full demonstration by the instructor. Students will closely observe the process of making the dough, preparing the fruit filling and custard, and assembling the tartlets.

Hands-on practice will take place during Step 1. Students are encouraged to participate throughout the workshop while observing the baking process along the way.

STEP 1:

The workshop begins with preparing the custard filling for the flan tartlets, followed by assembling both tartlets using pre-prepared components.

Students will then participate in hands-on practice to assemble their own tartlets. After a short resting period, the tartlets will be baked in the oven.

STEP 2:

The demonstration will continue with how to prepare each component from scratch.

Students will learn how to make the dough, roll out the sheets, cut them into rounds, and mold them into tartlet pans. The instructor will also demonstrate how to blind bake tartlet shells for the flan tartlets.

Preparation of the cherry filling will include pitting, macerating, and cooking the cherries into a finished filling.

By this stage, the baked tartlets will be ready to cool. The flan tartlets will then be transferred to the refrigerator to chill before decorating with fresh berries.

STEP 3:

Students will finish decorating the chilled flan tartlets with fresh berries.

Enjoy tasting half portions of each tartlet served with tea. This will also be an opportunity to review the baking process and ask any additional questions.

Each student will take home two of each tartlet, for a total of four tartlets.

Please bring a cooler bag with ice packs to help keep the tartlets cool during your trip home. Thank you!
