- The story:
-
- The idyllic region of Vully, which embraces the Lakes of Murten and
- Neuchatel is known principally for its wines. Whilst they are not
- categorised as wines of great vintage like those of Vaud, their
- sparkling character gives great pleasure to the "amateur". It is here
- that the geographical border passes between the Cantons of Fribourg
- and Vaud. Both Cantons contest the origin of this local speciality,
- the preparation of which was always a special occasion as not every
- day was a baking day !
-
- The recipe:
-
- Make a soft paste with the warm milk, yeast, melted butter (1), salt,
- sugar and flour.
-
- Leave to prove for 1 hour.
-
- Line 2 tart tins (20 cm diameter) with the paste and prick with a
- fork. Leave to prove until it has risen 2 cm.
-
- Sprinkle the butter (2) in pieces over the paste, then cover with
- cream .
-
- Top with the brown sugar.
-
- Bake at 200 oC for about 25 minutes.
-
- Serve cold.
