Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries. Fresh cranberries have a brighter flavor and will hold their shape better in the tart.
  • Don't overcook the cranberries. Overcooked cranberries will become mushy and lose their flavor.
  • Use a good quality ginger. Fresh ginger has a more intense flavor than ground ginger.
  • Grate the ginger finely. Finely grated ginger will distribute its flavor more evenly throughout the tart.
  • Use a tart pan with a removable bottom. This will make it easier to remove the tart from the pan.
  • Chill the tart before serving. This will help the tart set and make it easier to slice.

The tart is then topped with a whipped cream or ice cream. This tart is sure to be a hit with your family and friends!
