It was 34 C in the shade yesterday, so Lady Magnon decided to do some baking!
First she made some of her wonderful Parmesan biscuits, then, as it's Plum season, she made a delicious Plum Tatin.
We're ostensibly on our annual Summer diet, so biscuits and pies are normally verboten, but we do make exceptions. A slice of Plum Tatin with a dollop of Ice Cream makes the perfect desert after a light meal.
Unfortunately the kitchen remained at 45 C for the rest of the day!
p.s. They look like Figs in the photo, but I can assure you they were Plums!
Looks so beautiful and delicious. It takes a lot of determination to bake on such a hot day.
ReplyDeleteIt really was far too hot for baking, but she managed it!
DeleteI'm on a strict diet at the moment but that looks so tempting. Haven't had a tarte in ages.
ReplyDeleteIt's all gone now, we needed to remove it from temptation.
DeleteThat looks so good.
ReplyDeleteNothing beats a Tatin, whether it be Apple, Plum, Fig, or anything.
Delete45 degree kitchen. You must be talking Fahrenheit. That seems absurdly hot in France.
ReplyDeleteGood on Lady M for baking in the heat. We haven't been given any plums this year unfortunately. Our neighbour has lots of plums but not enough to give away I think. His pomegranate trees are loaded but not ready yet, so unfortunately is his quince tree.
ReplyDeleteThat looks very good, especially with some ice cream on a hot summer day.
ReplyDeleteSometimes such deliciousness is worth turning the kitchen into the Sahara!
ReplyDeleteI was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
ReplyDeleteliver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
