User comments
strain means to pour through a seive so you dont get lumpy bits in your tart and it finishes nice and smooth
what exactly does it mean by strain?
I am sure that It would be possible to cook without liquor. I dont see how they are base ingredients so it should be fine.. I will make it eventually and when I do I wont be using liquor.
Can You Make This Without Liquor ? Thankss !
