Blood oranges are a rare find in my area. SO, when I saw that Super Wal-mart had them by the bagful, well of course I didn't walk away without a bag!My next item on my list of things to do after I bought the oranges was to find something to do with them.
I found a blog post on Cast Sugar for this Blood Orange Tart - so I got busy and made my tart! Nemmie also gave a link for Salted Caramel Sauce. At first I thought I wouldn't bother with the caramel sauce, then I decided why not! I am so glad I made it although I have to admit it is addicting and you can eat it easily by the spoonfuls! The caramel is a perfect accent to the slightly "tart" tart!
For the tart recipe, please check out Nemmie's blog and click here for the Salted Caramel Sauce. I promise you, you will not be sorry you did!
This sounds yummy! They always have blood oranges at this Asian market we go to. I'll have to pick some up and try this.

How excitiing that they had bags of blood oranges at Super Walmart! I got mine from Trader Joe's.
ReplyDeleteThis looks really great - don't these oranges add a touch of unexpected with the flavour/colour. What a tasty idea!
ReplyDeleteOh, man. That caramel sauce really pushes this dessert over the edge. I'm pretty sure I couldn't leave this tart alone until it was completely devoured. It looks soooo good, and I just love blood oranges. They make for beautiful--and scrumptious--desserts!
ReplyDeleteOh gosh! This looks amazing! Blood oranges are just so lovely. Yay.

Wow those are cool looking oranges. I haven't seen those before. I'm afraid by the time I get over to Potsdam they'll be gone. I'll blame you if none are left :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteBoy this looks good. I want someone to come bake for me....
ReplyDeleteWe should be doing more with our blood oranges instead of just peeling and eating them. :) Maybe something like this!

ReplyDeleteLooks positively fabulous! Great color and will you just look at that TENDER crust! Yummy!
ReplyDeleteI have never seen these oranges except in pictures because we don't get them here. But they seem to lend everything such gorgeous colour.
