Plum Torte Season
My sister Mary has two clippings of recipes from the NYTimes
And another clipping c1985,86
The article from Sept 1st in the NYTimes
Here’s what Joanne says
Ruth ~ After talking to you about Marion Burros’ Purple Plum Torte I decided to make it once again. The New York Times has made it famous by writing about it and publishing the recipe, and I know your friend brought you one recently. The recipe is easy and foolproof. I made one individual serving in a little cocotte, and served it up with some Jeni’s “Brambleberry Crisp” ice cream and a small glass of plum wine. A great idea for some future dinner party.
And I cut the large one with a 6-piece pie/cake cutter that I found at my local restaurant supply store.
Thanks for giving me the idea to bake this fall classic!
