load/unload 2.5 tons of hay. by myself. my son is in florida. the apres exercise plan includes heading down to the dock for some crab with which i'm....
...making this tamale custard tart recipe which i hate so far. total pain in the ass. and a testament to why testkitchen recipe's are better than saveur's.

then why am i making it? well it popped up on twitter, i looked it over briefly and thought 'that shit sounds good!' savory custard tart topped with a crab ceviche. yes! i won't go into all the details and maybe some folks will have success with this recipe. but the first glaring mistake is 4 egg yolks and 3 cups cream don't just reduce to 1 cup in any where close to the allotted time (if at all). maybe i'm an idiot but it's just one of those 'over-the top' recipes where you trash the kitchen with bowls of this and that. and then they call for steaming the tart? whateva. i got to the point where the custard tarts are steamed and said 'fuck it.' done for the day (yesterday).
