How embarassing!

I don't know Clive, you tell me.

Great recipe, Jon!

Okay Jon, I finally got a tart pan (dish? corningware). Do you recommend that I use a metal pan with a removable bottom? I have never made a tart before. Will I be able to remove it from the corningware dish? I waited to make this until I got one. If you say the corningware won't work, I'll have to wait a little longer.

Uh-h-h-h, I don't know there, Billy - about getting that tart out of a Corningware tart dish...

I'd think you'd have to slice it and remove, as in a pie slice. Hope Jon answers you soon...

(that tart does sound so good, either way, hurry and make it and let us know... )

[miahoyhoy]

Jean's right.
I use a metal tart pan with removable bottom.
A: So I can get the whole thing out at once.
B: I don't know that the Corningware would transfer enough heat quikly enough to bake the shell in time. (because it all goes in at the same time)
