    You know that Julia would have reassembled the top if that happened to her. She always said, "it's just you in the kitchen, no one will know". It looked great, good job.

    “I would far prefer to have things happen as they naturally do, such as the mousse refusing to leave the mold, the potatoes sticking to the skillet, the apple charlotte slowly collapsing. One of the secrets of cooking is to learn to correct something if you can, and bear with it if you cannot." Julia Childs

    I've never made tarte tatin with shortcrust before. I'll be following this video next weekend.
    An easy and great way to make this is to use the ready rolled puff pastry. Roll out the pastry, place the pan upside down on it, cut the pastry into a circle using the pan as a guide, make it about an inch bigger. Then do exactly as you did. I'm impressed how noticeably you're improving. Those slices were hot. Next time you can try experimenting with different fruits (pear and apple mix is great) with some more spices (cinnamon and star anise).

    • @antichef
      @antichef  4 роки тому +13

      I always try my hardest not to use the ready made puff pastry for the show! But for sure, that would be much easier way to do it, and a big time saver! The pastry dough isn't too bad once you start getting the hang of it! I completely agree, a pear version would be 🔥

    I decided to make TT but slightly modified Julia's recipe ; before placing sliced apples in the skillet I put sugar, butter and a few tablespoons of water on med-high heat and created a caramel sauce in the cast-iron. Took the skillet off the heat and arranged the apples on top of the caramel and then placed the pastry dough over it, cutting a few slits for vapor to escape.

    For years -decades really- I religiously followed my home ec teacher’s instruction to use lemon juice as you did to keep apples from turning brown. Only much later did I realize I only needed to do this if the apples were served as slices or in an uncooked salad. The act cooking apples especially with spices changes apples any way. The citrus is such cases is for a nice contrast. Adding sugar and letting them sit for a while brings the juice out.

  • @laxjetbear
    @laxjetbear 2 роки тому +3

    May I make a suggestion? I’ve watched you make pate brisse a couple of times now. You always add the amount of liquid specified in the recipe and it is very apparent that your dough is too wet. Your mixture should just start to come together after the liquid is added. The amount of liquid needed can vary so always add the liquid a little at a time until your dough just starts to come together. Then pull it out of the mixer and form it into a ball. It should hold together well but should not be as sticky and wet as your doughs have been.

    That book was the first cookbook I bought myself 50 years ago. I can tell you that so many of the recipes are not authentic French regional dishes. Many are successful but like the Tarte Tatin, they're overly fussy. Tarte Tatin apples never get sliced that thin. No finer than cut into quarters or sixths. Caramel gets made first, just sugar and water then butter. Apples are then sauteed in that caramel for 20-30 min. Then baked without crust for 20-30 then topped with dough and cooked for another 30. Pear frangipane tart is spectaculat as is. Lobster thermidor is completely over done. Just check how much the lobster is overcooked. Good Luck and Bon Appetit!

    Have you been using the convection oven all this time? That's why your oven and Julia's oven never matched! Convection makes the oven cook hotter and faster than the old fashioned style. Also, I'm very proud of you for using the lemon trick. Most of these youtube channels don't and they end up with gross, brown apples.

    A quick bit about the legend that surrounds the recipe in France, and the final look that can sometimes be rough: it was a mistake anyway! Story goes the Sisters Tatin (two ladies that did exist and popularised the recipe in their restaurant) either forgot to put the pastry before the apples, or let the tarte fall after it came out of the oven.
    In reality, it's just a traditional recipe transmitted from mother to daughter in Sologne, a region of Fance, where it's made with either apples or pears, in a copper dish. Serve hot and, yes you were right, with ice cream

    I made this tonight and it was oh so yummy. You are right it only uses about 2.5 lbs of the 4lbs of apples the recipe called for. I wonder if the apples were smaller so there are more needed to do the three layers to cover the pan.

  • @ivonav3751
    @ivonav3751 Рік тому +1

    I have made Tarte Tatin a number of times following the recipe in Julia Child's "The Way to Cook", which is even more of a production than this version. The recipe in my book calls for cooking down the apples while standing over the stove basting them in the hot caramel/apple juices for something like 15 minutes prior to placing the crust on the pan and putting it in the oven. It has always turned out delicious, but looking at this, I wonder what the actual advantage of all that basting is. My recipe calls for less apples than this one, but, again, it tells me that the pile of apples in the pan should be quite a bit higher than the actual sides of the pan itself. By, like an inch and a half or so. I never have ended up with enough apples to meet that, and will have to try to remember to get more than are called for the next time so I can see how that works out. Also, the pate brisee recipe in the book always gives me an unworkably buttery ball of dough, so I use an alternate. As much as I love Julia Child (I really did learn how to cook by watching reruns of her show back when I was first married in 1985), sometimes she can be less than consistent!

    Like what you were trying to do w/ the apple, my uncle used to bump a ball w/ his bicep and catch it; I thought was so cool when I was a kid lol
    turns out you just hold the ball and do a curl so you're holding the ball over your bicep, then drop it and quickly straighten your arm and the ball/apple will bop into the air and you can catch it :) just a fun thing to know how to do, like juggling

    Tartes tatin are among the easiest desserts to make at home.
    You just need apples, sugar and a store bought puff pastry (rather than sort crust).
    Cut the apples roughly (quarters, sixths), make a quick caramel at the bottom of your baking plate, add the apple and then the puff pastry on top and in to the oven.
    This is my go to in Fall to get a dessert in under 20min when a wild guest appears. Be it childrens, relatives or friends, everyone loves it and it looks nice.
    If you have vanilla ice cream in the freezer to pair with, even better ^^

    • @etienne8110
      @etienne8110 Рік тому +1

      PS, the trick to unmold it 100% of the time is to flip it on a plate 5 min after getting out of the oven and let it cool like that, upside down for 10 to 20 min.
      The caramel will solidify and retract. So the tarte will fall and the caramel will hold the apples together, acting like a glue.
      The bigger your apple slices are the more cohesive it will be but it will also look "rougher". So if you want to succeed 100% you go for quarters, if you feel confident in your caramel mastery you can go for smaller chips.
