This was my first solo Daring Bakers' Challenge, because The uber-blonde is illin' (D:). It was still fun, and you get to see The Boy's kitchen that I used to cook in because... well... Black Ops has taken over our relationship so we need to stay at his house. Although he was quite obliging in taking photos for me because I had pastry hands.
I used raspberry jam as my crostata filling. Had I not left it to the last minute I could have been more inventive, particularly as I don't actually like overly sweet things, but thats a job for another day! The pastry was really nice, although I overworked it a bit which made it difficult to get into the dish in one piece. In the end, it was easiest to tip the board I was rolling it onto straight on top of the baking dish and let it fall in, then patch up the areas I'd missed. I think I'll make this again, aside from the chilling time it wasn't too time-consuming or complex! Hopefully then I'll have some better ideas for fillings :)
