what is the apricot in normandy tart?

[Idobelieveinfairies]

my ds has bought home the ingredients he needs to make normandy tart at school tomorrow.

he needs 2 spoonfuls of apricot

is thus crushed apricot, apricot jam?? or someting i just don't know about?

Jam, to spread on the bottom?

No, it's a glaze! (scroll down)

well i thought it was jam too..and bought some this morning...but slightly worried that the cookery teacher will think i am mad if i have got it wrong!

oh thats good then! (she never mentioned they needed lemons though!)..lol

ahh well

Thank-you!!!

Was it the very last itme on the list? Maybe the word jam didn't get copy-and-pasted.

it was indeed the last ingredient-they had to copy it from the board..there were quite a few other words missing too....!

luckily i had better clues like..self-raising and 1 e!

tsk..pesky kids..lol

eek! Maybe better get some lemon juice then, just in case he missed that out altogether!

That's a very ambitious recipe, how old is he?

12! i have to say he is a very good cook though, and really enjoys it, all that he has bought home has been edible and really lovely.

DD 15 though...is a diffent matter..lol

DS2 is 15 & he's very keen on cooking too, much more than his older sisters - weird, isn't it?
