Fig, Walnut and Pink Peppercorn Tarte Tatin
As seen on TV
Which Show?
Who made this dish?
Victoria knits, using the quiet time to dream up new flavour combinations. Her tatin is a daring mix of figs, walnuts and pink peppercorns. Victoria: "I tend to like just a trace of a flavour, and Paul and Mary like flavour with a big F, so I'm doubling up the amount I'm putting in." On the peppercorns: Victoria: "They are dry, but interestingly when you crush them they're still quite soft inside." At turnout: Victoria: "Has everybody else brought theirs out?"
Before baking: Mary: "They're not like black peppercorns, not infused in anything." Paul: "Good luck. I'm looking forward to seeing how those peppercorns come through against the figs." After tasting: Paul: "Lots of colour. But does that colour then mean lots of flavour?" Mary: "I can see that pastry is not done. That doesn't really work for me." [NOTE FOR JO: this final tasting cluster is attributed to Victoria by elimination, as hers was the only tart not identified by flavour during the tasting; please confirm or reassign.]
