Recipe too hard to understand, May 1, 2004 - 01:22 PM
Reviewer: E Lawrence from Jersey City, NJ USA
This recipe was a bit confusing, according to the istructions you are to add remaining ingredients after disolving the sugar in the hot water. And the sets of ingredients are not separated for the tart and the custard, which is which?? I had to try this recipe several times, each time differently until I came up with something edible. The Recipe should read as follows:
Disolve 1 Tbsp of sugar in 1 and 1/4 cup of hat water and so forth.
I had to go to another site to get a more appropriate recipe for my family.
