Tarte aux myrtilles auvergnate | Eating France

I'm not going to type for long today, because I have to bake a test-cheesecake for my cousin's wedding. But I wanted to bring you some dessert before I start whisking eggs and fromage blanc together. I really wanted to give you something sweet. So I made you a blueberry tart. Well, actually, I made two small ones, and I made them for a family dinner, so they're long gone by now, but I snapped some photographs for you. And I saved the recipe. Am I forgiven? I hope so. I also hope you like blueberry tarts with crème fraîche. I know I do. In my mind, blueberry tarts taste like warm autumns evenings by the fjords, and because I haven't invited you to join me, I thought this was a good alternative. Now, I know, I know. I can hear you. The last thing this website needs, you say, is another berry recipe. But I have to ask you to humour me. Although I'm usually not a huge fan of baked berries – fresh are my favourite, after all – I have to say, this tart is exceptional. Don't let the pictures put you off. It may not look like much, but this is one tasty tart. You haven't tasted a blueberry tart before you've tasted this one. You may think I'm exaggerating here, but I'm not. I never exaggerate. Really. This isn't just a regular blueberry tart. It is in fact a French blueberry tart. From Auvergne. Which makes it an Eating France recipe. There you have it. I've completely neglected Eating France again. It's a habit of mine, and you know what they say about habits. They're hard to break. Still, I hope to get my train on track and explore the rest of France, for there is lots of good food yet to be discovered and many new regions to conquer. Starting with Auvergne. There's not much to say about Auvergne, except that it's in central France, apparently is home to many semi-extinct volcanoes, and is both one of the least populated and oldest populated regions in Europe. More importantly, however, at least on this site, is it's many lovely cheeses, such as Saint-Nectaire, Bleu d'Auvergne and Cantal. I mean, hello? They're fantastic. Almost as fantastic as this blueberry tart, in fact. It's all blue and sweet and crumbly without being cloying. It's baked, but doesn't loose any of that original blueberry wonderfulness. I think it's perfect. So dig in! And don't worry about saving any for me. Soon I'll have a cheesecake to enjoy.
