Holy Smokes These Things are Awesome!

I have two events which seem unrelated, yet have come together in perfect serendipity.  

  1. Event 1: the ripening of the grapes.  We have veils of black monukkas on our vines.  
  2. Event 2: a vintner’s dinner ride we’re doing this weekend.

And so I needed to try some different recipes.  

I think my favorite thing about this recipe is that I could walk out my door and pick everything I needed, except the tartlet pastry.  Oh god, what I’d give for a pastry tree.  Heck I’d have a whole orchard.

Anyway, so I did a test run of these tartlets and I have to say I was skeptical.  A savory recipe with something as sweet as black monukkas?  And onions?  and rosemary?  wpid-20150817_212038.jpg

These are a total home run.  I can’t describe how crisp and fresh they tasted.  The flavor combination was bowl-licking worthy.  I ain’t ashamed.

Anyway, enough of all that.  Behold, I give you: Brie Tartlets wtih Grape Relish
