Another one from Payard! Because of your posts on Payard, I made sure I went to Payard Patisserie when I was in New York two weeks ago, and bought the book there. I was so pleasantly surprised when I got home to find out the book was autographed by the man himself! :)

As I’ve said, this looks really beautiful. I bet it tastes as refreshing as it looks. Can’t wait to try it!

Hi MM, yup, i realized that as soon as I posted my comment. Hmmm, I knew the senior moment had to come from either you or me (and it was me, as usual!) :-)

I love lemon tarts! I actually had a craving of this all weekend and I finally went to a renowned pastry shop called Brunetti’s in Melbourne to satisfy my craving =) hehe…I also bought some canoli, strawberry sponge cake, chocolate mousse and house-made nougats…Yum! I certainly had my sugar fix this weekend =)

Hi Millet, recipe calls for a pre-baked pie crust, details of which is in linked post to the previous pecan tart post with tart recipe in detail… Once the lemon filling is made and cooled, you only need to bake it for another 8 minutes or so…

MM, i think you missed the part about baking the crust. the recipe merely says “preheat the oven…”

Trish, I do have lemon squares in the archives I think. Ms. Rebecca, you have to try them, they are really easy to make. mandayamoore, I was laughing for a minute straight…your comment is one of the funniest I have received in recent memory… but it is so true, apple pie crust is a disaster if the temperature is too hot…heeheehee. tulipfleurs, I have made cheesecake only a few times and just put mangoes on top… pittipat, I hope the recipe works for you!

Thank you MM for featuring this recipe! I love lemon-based desserts and my sinful indulgence involves two and I mean two lemon meringue pies from Goodies and Sweets which I eat in a single sitting!!! And then off to the gym I go to burn the all the pastry and lemon curd and meringue i stuffed into my body— hahaha!!!

I am currently in search of the best lemon eclair. So far, its Bizu for me but I’m sure that there’s a better lemon eclair somewhere.

Hope you can feature recipes using lemons in your future posts.
