Thank you, chef! Simple and delicious and comes out amazing each time. I keep coming back to this recipe for 4 years now, and I have one in the oven right now.
Just did yesterday, fantastic flavor and texture. I had also engaged FCA at the beginning and I have never re-great!
It looks gorgeous! Stop saying you're not the best at baking! Love, America
I like your recipies very much! First clafoutis, now tarte tatin!
Thx!
Honestly, this channel has changed my life. Thanks for much for all of this
I like this channel. he shows what he's doing and I can learn easily. Good instruction is why this channel is growing. he uses his everyday cooking ware just like his viewers and that is a big vote of confidence for me. I've made food from his videos and it turns out every time. This is the best!!I'd like to find a corer like his though...it would make my life easier.Watching this makes me want to run out and buy apples.
Thank you very much for being a fantastic tutor, Chef! 🙏 I made this amazing dessert today, everyone loves it, it’s gone in 10 mins 🤤🤗
Just LOVE this recipe! Came out so good! Everyone loved it. And I love your French accent. Thank you!
"It's not the best looking of all"... Are you kidding me? It looks absolutely mouthwatering and that amber color is divine! I remember the best Tarte Tatin I've ever had, it was in Paris, I swear I could just die happy after that. I had to go and compliment the chef.
Thank you for the recipe!
I agree! It looks amazing!
That looks amazing. Take the credit you deserve. Thank you for this, and so many recipes!
Now this looks great!!!
that's so lovely! I tried to add little cognac and a pod of vanilla to the caramel preparation which enhances the flavors to another level.
Love that he used the food processor for the dough. Soooo easy.
You did wonderful! I look forward to your videos!
Thank you, I'm making this for my birthday this weekend 😀
One of my favorite pastry, so addictive...
I have made loads of this but with cake batter instead of shortcrust.
I make the caramel, pour it into a cake tin, then the apples on top and then a thick poundcake batter on top.
Absolutely delish, TBH, I have tried both ways and I like the cake batter version the most.
Elegantly simple !!!
I enjoy your channel, recipes and insight to French cooking. This morning I made the potato crepes and finished Sunday dinner with this delicious gem!
well done making those recipe especially the tarte tatin and glad you like them 🙂🙂👨🏻🍳
Just made my first Tarte Tatin. Turned out very good ! Thank you for another instructive video.
🙂👍👨🏻🍳
@@FrenchCookingAcademy we are European and lived in Paris for 2 years. Now we live in the US. I never tried to make French pastries as they are so good bought in Europe. Now I can't fly to Europe due to Covid. I needed my fix. If Life gives you lemons, make a lemon tart! Which I did last week by your instruction and it was amazing! 😊
It’s beautiful and your instructions were wonderful and easy to follow!! I’m excited to make this!
My alltime Favorite Merci !!!!!!!!!!
Drooling on screen while watching.....must try that.
It’s perfect😍👍🏼
You are the most amazing chef I have ever seen on RUclips!!! Treasure!!! Keep going Chef
OMG looks absolutely mouth watering. Can't wait to make this!
+Virginia Lewis thanks😋👨🏻🍳
Looks delicious you the best
Salut Chef et merci pour les recettes! I just did the tarte tatin. OMG not only it came out super tasty as gorgeous! I think the only tarte tatin I tried before in Paris was one tarte tatin à la tomate (kind of saulty but very tasty) in a restaurante in the Marais. Thanks again. Cheers from Lisbon
"tarte tatin à la tomate" How do you do that? Just baked tomatoes with crust? I can only imagine a watery mess...
There's baked tomatoes recipe in France that I love: "tomates provençale" but there's no crust.
@@IronFreee Bar des Philosophes
@@Nawieder I saw a few pictures of their tarte Tatin, but they don't seem to be made from tomatoes... Are they adding tomatoes to a regular Tatin?
Cooking tomatoes just make them shrink as they are about 95% water.
I love tarte tatin.
I have sometimes made it with cake batter like and upsidedown cake.
|Put the caramel in a cake pan then the apples on top and put cake batter on top, make sure the batter is not to thin.
This is the most delicious upsidedown cake ever.
PS I have fallen in love with French cooking because of Julia Child.
So I am learning and also trying to learn to speak a little French.
Mmmm, it’s looking good!
one of my favorite dessert 😀
Great video ,great teacher
Thank you for a pleasant vidoe
Thank you so much! This was so easy and it came out absolutely wonderfully on the first try. This was an RV home cooking success story! I wish my phone would let me add a photo of the finished product. Trust me it was fabulous. Thanks again:) FYI the measurements you list in your video for the caramel sauce don't match the measurements you wrote in the recipe in the description. I went by the recipe in the description and I turned out great.
well done 🙂
well done 🙂
What an amazing video. Thank you!
Your video series is excellent, thank you. I have always used a copper pan for tarte tatin, it conducts the heat very well but in my view it does not store as much heat so is a bit safer in terms of not scorching the caramel, just my opinion. Admittedly copper is expensive though. Good luck with your channel
thanks 👍
Thats a good idea! I can't use cast iron, too heavy on my wrists.🙁
Looks absolutely delicious
I think you did very well in explaining everything except tell us what apples you used?
So what apples do you recommend?
Also in your video you mentioned less sugar and butter and in description of ingredient sugar is much more ?
I think i will follow your ingredient in description of 200g of sugar to 130g of butter ,would you say this is correct?
I have seen many videos of tarte tatin and yours looks Authentic and the best i hope it turns out 👍 ok😅😊
Enjoy!
Tarte tatin is one of the most delicious things I ever ate.
I tried this a while ago, it was delicious! Love the channel!
Hello I love this dessert too. its so addictive!
Hey, i am afraid to say I kind of prefer my classic German apple pie... also the butter flavor is very strong so if you don’t like butter I would choose a vegan alternative
My mother had the SAME wooden spoon! She used it for more than just cooking! 😆
Mon dieu!!!! C'est fantastique!!!
😋
Stephane, you are a great teacher, you missed your vocation.
I added about a quarter of a cup of calvados to the sugar and butter.
🤤🤤🤤
This looks great!
I am looking for a good authentic recipe for ‘tartiflette’. Could you make a video for this?
Your videos are great, I love French cooking.
Oh yes! Please!
Lovely 🌹😍
I second me of your other viewers - looks yummy !! Thank you - will let you know how men turns out 😀
Thank you so much 😊 My favourite apple tart my issue is always the caramel that always burn or doesn’t get brown! And I put puff pastry on top! This was very easygoing!!👏👏👍👍👍Can you please tell us what is your brand of food processor for dough knife?
Wow - my favourite dessert. There's an awesome video of a serious young French chef making tarte tatin. It's great and you can pretty easily understand what he's doing, even though there's not a word of English! I LOVE this beautiful, inventive dessert. Thanks for the recipe and demonstration.
😄OMG! You had me laughing so hard with your silly commentary about not being a professional baker. Your tart looked 😋.
Hi! Looks amazing, how would you incorporate calvados in this recipe? In the caramel sauce?
Can I use a combination of flour and almond flour to the dough?
It's supposed to be rustic looking, so it is in fact a perfectly beautiful, rustic, tarte tatin. I'll take a simple, rustic, done in a skillet tarte tatin over a fancy spiral one anytime. Simplicity for simplicity's sake can be a good thing.
Hello! I'm looking forward to giving this recipe a go, but I dont have an oven-friendly pan. Can the apple-caramel mixture be transferred to a tart shell for the bake?
You are too humble
What type of apples do you recommend?
Wow
Votre Tarte Tatin est merveilleuse J'aimee beaucoup.
Merci F.I did you actually try to make it? I have just experiment a new version with apple and passion fruit. tested by friends and apparently it was a success. so something to think off. hope to see you again on the channel
The French Cooking Academy Bonjour, thanks very much for answering. Yes, I did make the Tarte Tatin, but I used a mock puff pastry that I was not satisfied with.
Next time, I will definitely use your pastry, and try uour new recipe. Take care and be well
Hi, in the video you say 100 gr of sugar and 100 gr of butter for the caramel sauce but in the description you mention 200 of sugar and 130 of butter. Which is the right one? Thanks
I am wondering this too. Now I need to compare other recipes to confirm amounts
Was the crust more bread like? Mine looks like yours just never had taste this before. Just wondering.
Not like bread more like biscuity type
I have revisited the shortcrust on this video that works really🙂🙂 well ruclips.net/video/gjtxrY0jTaA/видео.html
Whew! ok then I did it corrctly. Thanks for having the videos learning a lot and enjoy them much.
What type of apples do you use? Thank you!!
Gorgeous
Could there be a mix of pear and apple?? 🤔
I like it better when it's made with puff pastry
Do you have an apple preference ? Or do you go more by those that hold their texture when cooked ?
Well it depends what you do with them but generally texture and flavour is what I am after
It looked gorgeous looking to me! Chef, question...some folks put the apples in water and lemon but I noticed you did not do that. Is there a reason why?
+Tanya Walker you can put them in lemon water if cut in advance i usually cut the apple and use them straigh away
French Cooking Academy Thank you chef.
Just to explain why he was so rushed in putting the apples into the caramel is because the cast iron pan carries alot of residual heat, the caramel is continously cooking and will scortch, adding the apples cools down the caramel enough so its not in danger pf scorching
HI Conan. that's exactly right. I actually have the footage where I was explaining this but the video length got out of control ;O)
+The French Cooking Academy lol its all good, nothing a little after touch up anotations can't fix, keep it up with the vids, you really make learning new recipes enjoyable
Good video and excellent presentation. You may want to consider adding some cinnamon to the apples to spice them up a bit.
Your food processor looks very simple to use with perfect results. Can you tell me please, what model you are using? Mercy beaucoup!
I have the tart in the oven but am guessing 200d Celcius also quantities listed below video are different to verbal quantities on iTube
beautiful....
darth vader arrives to boulangerie: a monsieur vader, 3 breads and 2 tarte tatin comme dab? you have a good memory - its easy sir : pain pain pain, tarte tatin, tarte tatin.
Older video, but I'd really like to try this one. Could not find a le Crueset skillet on his Amazon page & they're offered in several different sizes, 9", 10 1/4", 11 3/4"... Anyone know what size pan to use?
I've made these in Lodge iron ware. As to size, how big a tart do you want to make? A Lodge 8 inch skillet will give 2 generous servings. If you're worried about iron taste, notice that his Le Creuset is raw iron inside, same as Lodge.
Hi. IN the ingredients list above, you have 150g sugar, but in the video (6m 27s) you say 100g. Which is correct please? I compromised and used 125g of sugar and it worked really well, but it would be nice to know!!
The ingredients list above says 200 grams of sugar. That comes out to one full cup of sugar.
yes sorry about that 😊 in my older video i used to make a few mistake with telling the ingredients and I usually correct that in the description . so yes, the ingredients to use are the one in the video description .
@@FrenchCookingAcademyUnfortunately, your website also says 100g each sugar and butter, so that's what I used. 🫣
I don't have iron cast pan or skillet so what can I do???? is there a solution for this for this recipe? ???
HI there and thanks for watching. if you do not have a cast iron dish you can eventually make your caramel in a saucepan then use a glass or ceramic pie dish. the way to do it: First preheat your pie dish in the oven at 200 degree C (400 F). then make your caramel in the sauce pan. when the caramel is done pour it on your hot pie dish, and add the apples. for the rest continue with the video recipe. at the step where you lay down your dough (shortcrust pastry). Hope it helps
+The French Cooking Academy thank you :)
This totally works! We ate this with homemade whipped cream and it was to die for. Thank you so much for doing these videos - they are so easy to follow and the recipes are delicious!
+The French Cooking Academy Do you think it would change the temp of the oven & the baking time if you used a glass pie dish/plate?
Drew M The Tarte tatin ia very forgiving dish and the only to look after is really the color of the top of your dough. when its a nice light brown and looks like its cooked its ready. just keep an eye on it from time to time.
What is the diameter of the skillet you use please?
I slice the apples. Looks prettier and cooks more.
Hi there...love your terre cuite pot..looked on amazon.fr could not find it. It is so rustically elegant. I love pretending I know how to plate....Peace.
are you able to make this recipe with peaches or any other fruit?
Use fresh peaches, canned is too wet,and too sweet. Pear is good too.
damn that looks good. I love sugary apples
and its easy to make too. its a dessert a really recommend trying. once you try it its hard to go back to anything else. :o)
Même si votre tarte tatin n'a pas l'air très bonne, vous avez l'air très bien, monsieur.😉
substitute for egg???
DON'T OVERCOOK THE CARAMEL even just a little bit burnt it will taste super bitter (just messed up a batch)
I would put salt both in the dough and the filling
After placing the dough for 2 hours in the fridge, it came out hard as a rock and I wasn't able to roll it out. What did I do wrong?
after it’s cooled you need to leave it at room temperature before rolling it
I think that my cast iron skillet is too big. I need a 10” instead of the 12”. My magic didn't happen. I have metric measuring tools, but mine just kept on creaming. I added more flour and just took it out, folded a few times, then to the fridge.
why does dough have to rest two hr?
Cette une pate sable or sucre????
Sablee or sucree or brisee may be used
12 inch pan?
i neef to check alain vut i have a special tarte tatin pan from le creuset on my amazon page. that is super handy to have
In France the purists call it a Tatin not a tarte Tatin as it is not considered a tart because the star is the apple not the pastry .
Huh! So the traditional Tarte Tatin isn't made with a laminated crust, eh? You are fun and educational to listen to! By the way, British English caster sugar = American English granulated sugar. British English icing sugar = American English powdered sugar.
Looked fine WITHOUT cutting up the top.
I was always under the impression that it was puff pastry rather than short
Challenge American with measurements by bouncing between websites for conversions while cooking this beautiful dish. Hope is turns out as good.
I wrote down his recipe and then looked up each item in the conversions and wrote it down next to it. Yes it's a hassle but that was the easiest way to do it. Especially since Graham's don't convert to cups equally to every ingredient because different ingredients have different weights. Ie 20 grams of butter is not the same measurement as 20 grams of flour.
oh my... How fashionable. Orla Kiely containers..
Add "crème fraiche" !
everything is completely scrambled into portions and black and white. I can't see anything!
I had a problem with an upload yesterday but that has been corrected since then. Please make sure you access the video from the main channel page just in case try that link: ruclips.net/video/6r69j-LSdTM/видео.html
One minute for the pastry then 5 minutes cleaning the machine and putting it away. By hand is better.
OMG. I am so tired of looking at these videos trying to hear what temp they melt the sugar at!!!
that’s a good point actually in my recent video on croquembouche i actually mention it but it very useful to know when working with sugar . i just learn that recently when making that special caramel. interesting subject sugar
Hmm, in the video you use 100 g sugar and 100 g butter. In the text below the video, it says 200 g sugar and 130 g butter. So there's quite a discrepancy. Moreover, 100 g sugar is a full cup and 100 g butter is 7 tablespoons. That's a lot! And your written text below the video is 2 cups of sugar and 9 tablespoons butter--a lot more! I have seen recipes with only 1/2 cup sugar and 2 tablespoons butter. I guess it is just to one's own taste ... Also, are your apples cooked in the end? I normally put the apples in when the sugar is amber and then cook the apples along with the caramel until dark. Then bake with the pastry.
Puff or flaky pastry, surely??
