kas42 0 Posted May 14, 2005 Report Share Posted May 14, 2005 If you ask your local "dinner ladies" they might give you the secret recipe for the "caramel" tart. All the ingredients are common apart from liquid butter essence. ( I did have a copy but could not get hold of the aformentioned ingredient) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Caz 25 Posted May 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 If I was really desperate to make this tart kas would the liquid butter essence be an integral part of the recipe?? maybe if I just used butter in the ingredients it would suffice....what do you think??

I do not expect it would taste the same, as if "real" butter was used it would make it a little fatty. If I come across my copy I will post it (it was a photocopy, and it was before I had a clear up.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
colly0410 1,181 Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 I can't even remember 10 puddings from school, (Trent Bridge) my favourite though was caramel tart, also liked some kind of chocolate sponge with two lumps of custard.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

carni 10,094 Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Concrete Pudding and Strawberry Custard. I think it was a short bread. When you broke a piece off with the spoon, It used to fly off the plate if you didn't hold it down with your fork . Good Ammo! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OrphanAnnie 296 Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 I hated school dinners with a passion, after being forced to eat cauliflower cheese which made me very ill! The pudding I remember though was a treacle tart with cornflakes on top, it came in a huge square tin and was cut into slices and the corner pieces were the best!

Michael Booth 7,364 Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Out of all the one's in Caz's list (#1) I only dislike the sweet desserts, jam sponge and treacle tart. I always enjoyed the school meals at Trent Bridge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mick2me 3,033 Posted October 29, 2015 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 RIP our Caz I hated that cornflake tart. Being a liker of custard skin, I always got the top off the custard jug. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Oztalgian 3,296 Posted October 29, 2015 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 When I had school dinners we always had a choice of custard, lumps or slices Quote Link to post Share on other sites

EileenH 496 Posted October 29, 2015 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 Never a fan of puddings. My friend and I would smuggle lumps of pud on to the Arboretum in our hankies and feed it to the ducks. We weren`t allowed to refuse puddings and we weren`t allowed to leave any. Poor ducks!

All the ingredients are common apart from liquid butter essence. ( I did have a copy but could not get hold of the aformentioned ingredient) Caramel tart was the best! Mam was a dinner lady at one of the schools in Clifton she was always told that one of the ingredients was only available in bulk, bet it was the butter essence!!

katyjay 5,091 Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 My hubby's aunt was a dinner lady and she wrote the recipe out for me, for Butterscotch tart, in measurements that didn't feed the proverbial 5000. Had to get the butterscotch flavouring from a certain shop IRRC, as it wasn't on the regular supermarket shelves. I know you can get it on line now. Tiny bottle, but it went a long way.
