Author Notes

Chrystalized ginger in both the dough and the fruit topping add a surprising zing to this open-faced tart. The recipe works for whatever fruits are in season and it is very pretty. My family is from Germany and this is our answer to pie. Also tastes great with vanilla ice cream. —Susan Ross
