As some of you know, I am participating in a CSA this summer, which means that every week I pick up a hearty batch of produce (and sometimes cheese and eggs) from Norwich Meadows Farm. Generally, this has been great — I've been eating fruits and veggies galore and I've been cooking more often. My one problem has been the apricots and plums — I get so many that I can't go through them fast enough. Last week, I had amassed a ridiculous number of plums, so I decided it was time to make something out of them, rather than trying to eat five plums a day just to keep up. I ended up making this Plum Torte, which was simple and delicious*. Of course I ended up bringing about 2/3rds of it into the office so I wouldn't have it lying around the house . . .
*I'm no Smitten Kitchen with the photos, but I try.

ha looks like a deep-dish pepperoni pizza! i just made one of these myself the other day, but with fresh figs, and as an upside down cake, so the figgy side was all gooey…yum!

Mr Greenwood recently made some delicious plum jam from the rich pickings at Hewitts Farm in Kent. A big step for a man’s man! I expect your plum pizza went down a treat!
