The most beautiful apple tart I've ever made
It only took me about 4 hours to make lol

Mechanize, I know this is a 3 weeks old post, but this is amazing.
Spliffman1, An absolute work of art... Glad you got the Pic to remember it for all time!
MagpieRhymes, That looks gorgeous! I saw in another comment that you used a mandolin to slice the apples - you’re braver than I am. I have one, but I’m terrified of it 😅
rave_demon, They have finger guards for them! Don't be afraid, they smell fear. You can't slice all the way down, obviously, but the scraps can be used re: that comment I made earlier
TskUghPfftUhh, I have a dumbass/odd question: are mandolin slicers adjustable and could they be used to slice bagels? I need my bagels cut into 3rds or 4ths, not in halves.
rave_demon, Yes they are adjustable! You can adjust for different thicknesses. Would it be thick enough or sharp enough for a bagel? I am unsure but I am intrigued, please let me know if you try it
TskUghPfftUhh, Do you have a recommendation for a mandolin brand? I might give it a go.
MagpieRhymes, Hahaha, I’ll think about it (or, more likely, cajole my spouse into doing it for me)
rave_demon, They don't need their fingertips as much as you do, surely.
VeganSchnitzel, Beatiful! But don't hold it sideways, it'll fall!
rave_demon, Hehe okay genuine question as I am new to Lemmy.... why do some of my photos upload sideways?
VeganSchnitzel, I have no clue, sorry. Not really a tech person, jsut here for silly jokes
rave_demon, Same! lol no worries
AUniqueGeek, Did it taste as good as it looks! It looks fantastic OP!
rave_demon, It actually did taste incredible. I essentially frankensteined 3 recipes together and made some tweaks. It was eaten in under an hour haha
enshu, Amazing work!
malcriada_lala, Looks beautiful and delicious!
cybervseas, Is there some custard in the base of that? Or maybe frangipane? Or are you a madlad and went for 100% apples?!
rave_demon, 100% apples my friend. I used a mandolin to slice the apples so that they were thin and uniform, but its hard to slice ALL of it right? So I took the little left over slivers, chopped them down, and cooked them into a soft apple pie filling with some sugar, lemon, a splash of white wine. Then I spread that into the par-baked crust before arranging the slices on top as you see. It made it taste really good, I'm glad I did that, but it was sort of something I came up with on the spot
cybervseas, Nice. Both resourceful and creative. Thanks.
teflocarbon, Looks absolutely delicious. Very well done. I’m feeling very jealous right now.
TskUghPfftUhh, So fancy looking 🌹 How was it? Are the apple "petals" a crispy texture?
rave_demon, Yes they're somewhat crips because I used honeycrisp and granny Smith apples
Omgarm, It's almost a shame to cut it.
Better shove it down at once.
rave_demon, Would you believe me if I told you it also tasted absolutely delicious? We invited some friends over and devoured the entire thing
MadWorks, Nope, wouldn't believe you at all. You should make another and send it to me so that I can judge for myself.
rave_demon, Let's share it together :)
MadWorks, We're gonna need a bigger tart. Lol
Goodbyeworld, Remember Austin Powers, “who throws a shoe?” Well, seriously, who downvotes a tart? Honestly.
