Hi Ben,
I *finally* tried your version of the butternut squash tart — it was delicious! And I really liked the technique. Neither my boyfriend nor I had ever made a tart this way before (we are more used to the “throw stuff in a pie crust” variety), and this was so easy, we can’t wait to make more tarts like this!

Check out the post (obviously we have linked back to you):

We made this on Monday and reheated it last night for dinner. Great stuff. Our top browned a touch more than i think it was supposed to, which could have happened for a number of reasons, but I highly recommend the Trader Joe’s pie crusts. Really good.

I showed your blog to Josh Cherry, and he started instantly drooling.

Thanks for sharing, as always.

We made this Monday night and will be trying it out tonight. Looking forward to it. And I’m giving mad props to your website since so many of our friends do the CSA thing too.

Hi Ben, tonight was the night: my boyfriend made a butternut squash tart! It was everything I hoped it would be and more. Here’s a link to the post (and, more importantly, pictures).

I think it is quite a different variety of tart than yours, so we’ll have to try your recipe next time.

Oh my goodness, I’ve been bugging my boyfriend to make some kind of squash or pumpkin tart with our CSA goodies, so I’m totally jealous!! Hopefully this weekend. Perhaps we’ll try and combine the best parts of your recipe (bacon! gruyere!) with the squash tart recipe we’ve been thinking about already (carmelized onions).
