THE BEST BUTTER TARTS


Were made by my late mother-in-law, Concetta. Although she was a fabulous cook, her baking was even better. Butter tarts are Canadian. She came from Italy and learnt to make them here. What was so special was the fact she would make them to take to someone's home when they were sick, a dessert item for festive dinners and any other occasion since we loved them. The taste was so good because she put love into them! Food is one of those comfort things in our lives. We often equate food with memories. The smell of baked bread! Turkey cooking! Coffee brewing! Are there foods that bring memories for you? Do you miss someone in your life that made a favourite entree?
