Strawberry Tart

This recipe screams to me that it is from Merry Meeting Farm as there were thick rich berry patches all around. 

Ingredients

 1 quart strawberries (can add peaches, raspberries, blueberries)
4 Tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup red wine

Process

 "Heat on the back of the stove and do not boil..."
well that just screams a wood heated stove!
"...Pour off juice and boil to reduce.

Pastry

"Mix with hands 1 and 1/2 cup rice flour, sifted, with 1 small cup butter until very fine. Add 2 dessert spoons of cold water. Put into a ball and throw back and forth for about 5 minutes. Roll out to the size of a pie plate. Fill with beans and bake in a hot oven for 25 minutes. Take out the beans. Sprinkle pastry lightly with powdered sugar. Just before serving put in berries. Pour juice over and sprinkle with powdered sugar. "
