Mulled Wine & Gingerbread
I asked Gareth what I should say about the 'Mulled Wine and Gingerbread Tart' and he said, 'it's ****ing great'. Usually something we keep under our belts to whip out for our Christmas Menu, this month we're bringing the festive spirit early and enjoying spicy, creamy, indulgent goodness in the season it was intended...winter! A gingerbread custard is topped with a mulled wine and pear glaze and housed in our thin and buttery shortcrust pastry. This tart will take you to the Christmas markets of Europe, even if you've never been.
