Fig and Strawberry Ricotta Tart


Another Saturday, another trip to the farmer's market, and another new inspirational ingredient.  Figs are in season, folks.  And I made sure to snatch up a few along with my usual fruits and veggies.  I wasn't sure what I was going to do with them,  but after the recent and very rich S'mores Pie,  I knew I wanted something light and fresh.

S'mores Pie


Some desserts are so universally good, you feel like they could probably make you 100 new friends, end decades-long feuds and generally make the world a little better if only everybody could have some.  This is one of those desserts.  S'mores Pie.  Who doesn't like S'mores?  Nobody.  Nobody is the answer to that question.  Even people who think they don't like S'mores are probably just mistaken.  They'll figure it out one day, and then they'll look back at their old, S'mores-hating self and laugh at how wrong they were.
