Bourbon Pear and Quince Tarte Tatin

20171212_161610
oh my god what an ordeal. I hate quinces. Preparing them, anyways. You remove the fuzz and all of the crazy little growths, coring them is crazy, their shapes are crazy, the texture varies… sigh. Hence the rustic uneven look! This was supposed to be a quince tarte tatin, but alas, the quinces looked ugly and amorphous, so I had to mix them up with pears (thanks for the hint, sis). Now it only needs a scoop of ice cream, and I can enjoy a piece and forget the trauma 😉

Followed the newly-gangsterized Martha Stewart’s recipe but just added a splash of bourbon to the melted sugar and butter:
