to think that tart au citroen does not go with custard!?

[Kellamity]

As bloody wonderful as my DH was to buy our supper on the way home, including dessert, they just don't go together. He can't understand why I might want me tart on it's own! I mean am IBU?

YANBU.

I can just imagine the effects of custard in the engine.

YANBU, it's like putting diesel instead of petrol innit.

coppertop.

YANBU OP

YA so NBU

I thank you I just told him if he was on Masterchef they would have liked his plate individually....but together...no no no!

Tarte au renault might go better with custard.
HTH

Sounds crunchy!

YANBU!

Generally speaking, if a pudding cannot be sold at M&S with the words "Traditional English....." before it then it cant be served with custard. My chef friend told me that and he is right :o

too much fizz!!

Alors, non!

Yanbu.

Tart First.

Then Custard on ice cream. Yum.

Surely tart au-citroen should auto-matically go with double cream?

Desert choices are exhausting.

Arf. I like the idea of tarte aux deux chevaux, may be a bit tough though!

dessert choices too much cider!

How about creme anglaise? French version of (real) custard, but thinner and usually served sold. It might be OK. But I would prefer a spoonful of lovely thick creme fraiche, slightly sweetened and with a few shreds of finely grated lemon peel mixed in. Or possibly a dollop of mascarpone, given the same treatment.

Cream, it's always with cream. Not ice cream and definitely not custard.

Arf @ engine jokes. Good old Citroen barely runs on petrol or is that because my cars diesel oops

I totally agree Slinky Gobi? Sahara? Kalahari? It does your head in!

That'll learn me to try and be funny when tipsy.

A tart in a citroen will go with anything

YANBU, they don't go together at all.

YABU however to try and call it tart au citroen and not lemon tart unless you can write French properly. Tarte au citron...The jokes amused me though :)

Whatmeworry - that make me chuckle :)

Trioofprinces I disagree with your point about my drunken spelling mistake. Without it this thread wouldn't have been so funny

pointless discussion, it may look nice but it will let you down when you need it most and would probably break down halfway through the pouring of the custard. The overall taste would be spoilt by the taste of WD40

Very fair point Kellamity
