It's been a while since I've posted, but I thought I'd just finish this story off.
My mum died a few weeks ago and I've been sorting out her house. When I was a child, we used to cook together lots. She kept a file of all the recipes she liked. Tonight, I've driven back from her house in Shropshire with a car full of memories. Amongst them was her recipe file. And in that recipe file, I've finally found the recipe for Lincoln tart. So here's my mum's Lincoln Tart recipe, word for word as she wrote it:
Lincoln Tart
A good old standby to use up a small amount of pastry
Line a 7 inch flan ring with 4oz short crust pastry and spread with a little jam. Melt together 1 oz syrup, 1 oz sugar, and 2 oz butter over gentle heat. Stir in 4 oz desiccated coconut. Remove from heat and add an egg, well beaten. Spread filling over jam and bake at 400F for about half an hour, cover if necessary. |

sorry about your loss, the recipe is the sort of thing that makes the important memories real
how about put the recipe into the ds recipe database?
nice you have popped back, ds has evolved a bit, we are all older and some are sadly no longer with us, it is not all extinction doom and exposing unethical peeps, although the data for both of those is good quality
wildlife is reporting what is happening in various places, the "alternative energy" or energy as i think of it stuff has overtaken blight and slugs 
quite a few "projects" seem to be working ok, some have gone really well, there is a rather splendid ds advised allotment development by sgt colon which puts my allottmenteering to shame, various woodland ventures are going well and are ongoing, jema's new garden was a great example of gone well(and an awesome amount of work)
quite a few folk have new or adjusted projects for new circumstances
time passes, the village evolves, it is still inhabited by nice folk with diverse personalities and skills that create a cooperative village attitude
many pop back, hi there stay in touch  |
