Tips for Fruit Tarts
Choose several different kinds of fruit with contrasting colors and shapes. Try kiwi, mango, and star fruit (cherimoya), papaya and/or pomegranate seeds. Avoid apples, pears and anything else that will turn brown after slicing. Slice all the fruit evenly and arrange them into nice, neat rows on top of the tart.To get that glistening finish that professionally made tarts all seem to have, simply take a great big spoonful of your favorite fruit jelly and melt it in a saucepan over low heat. To add a touch of elegance, pour in a splash of hazelnut, orange or coffee liqueur. Brush the melted jelly mixture over the fruit with a pastry brush and allow it to set. Garnish with a few sprigs of lush green mint, if desired
