Cooking instruction summary:

In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together butter and sugar until well combined. Add half of egg, reserving other half for later, and mix, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary.In a medium bowl, combine all flours. With the mixer on low speed, add flours all at once; mix until well combined.Turn dough out onto work surface and form into a disk. Wrap with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, about 3 hours.Once dough is ready, preheat oven to 350°.Place dough on a floured work surface and roll out to 1/8-inch thick. (Here’s the tricky part. The dough needs to be warm enough to manipulate but cold enough to hold it’s shape. Frequent, but quick trips, to the freezer are necessary.) Cut out 10 even rectangles, about 3"x4" each.Place 5 tart rectangles on a baking sheet. Fill with jam, about 1 heaping tablespoon per tart, leaving half an inch clearing space around the outer edge of the rectangle. Carefully place tart rectangle on top and press with a fork around the edges to seal. Trim away any extraneous dough. Repeat. If dough begins to crack, dip finger in water and smooth. Works like magic. Brush tarts with egg wash. Sprinkle with turbinado.Transfer to a freezer for 10 minutes. (This helps the dough to hold its shape.)Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow to cool before serving. Reserve leftovers in an air tight container.

Food Trivia

People were using garlic to repel long before Bram Stoker's was published. Folklorists suggest it is because vampires have a heightened sense of smell and the garlic's strong smell was overpowering. Garlic is proven to be effective against two other bloodsuckers: mosquitoes and ticks.

Food Joke

A young family moved into a house next door to a vacant lot. One day a construction crew turned up to start building a house on the empty lot. The young family's 6 year old daughter naturally took an interest in all the activity going on next door and started talking with the workers. She hung around and eventually the construction crew - gems in the rough, all of them - more or less adopted her as a kind of project mascot. They chatted with her, let her sit with them while they had coffee and lunch breaks,and gave her little jobs to do here and there to make her feel important. At the end of the first week they even presented her with a pay envelope containing a dollar. The little girl took this home to her mother who said all the appropriate words of admiration and suggested that they take the dollar pay she had received to the bank the next day to start a savings account. When they got to the bank the teller was equally impressed with the story and asked the little girl how she had come by her very own pay check at such a young age. The little girl proudly replied, "I've been working with a crew building a house all week". "My goodness gracious", said the teller, "and will you be working on the house again this week too"? "I will if those useless morons at the lumber yard ever bring us the f****** bricks", replied the little girl.
