DAD'S CLEMENTINE MACCARITA

Steps:

• To salt the rims of two glasses, use the 1/2 lime to wipe around the rim of each glass. Pour out a generous 6-inch line of salt. Roll the outside rim of each glass along the salt line to lightly salt the outside rim of the glass (not the inside or it will make your cocktail too salty when you take the last sip).
• Pour the tequila, Cointreau, triple sec, clementine juice and lime juice into a cocktail shaker. Fill with ice. Shake for 20 seconds until your hands get cold.
• Strain into the prepared glasses and drink responsibly.

CLEMENTINE TARTS

Steps:

• Pastry: In large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, rind and salt. Cut in butter and shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir together egg yolk and water; gradually pour into dry ingredients, stirring briskly. Add more water if necessary to form dough that holds together. Press into ball and flatten slightly. (Dough can be wrapped and chilled for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature before continuing with recipe.).
• On lightly floured pastry cloth and using stockinette-covered rolling pin, roll out dough to slightly less than 1/4-inch (5 mm) thickness. Cut out sixteen 3-1/2-inch (9 cm) rounds. Ease into muffin tins, allowing 1/2 inch (1 cm) to come up sides. Prick bottom and sides. (Shells can be wrapped and refrigerated for up to 1 day.) Bake in 400°F (200°C) oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden. Remove from tins; let cool on racks.
• Clementine Pastry Cream: Meanwhile, in heavy saucepan, whisk together egg yolks, milk, sugar and salt. Blend in flour and bring to simmer over medium heat, whisking constantiv, until thickened and smooth. Blend in clementine juice and rind; reduce heat to low and simmer gently, whisking constantly, for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in butter, liqueur and vanilla.
• Transfer to heatproof bowl and cover surface with buttered waxed paper; refrigerate until chilled, about I hour, or up to 1 day.
• Topping and Glaze: Spoon cream into pastry shells. Refrigerate for up to 2 hours. Peel clementines; with sharp knife, remove thin outer membrane and cut out segments. Transfer to sieve and let drain until serving time. Pat dry and divide among tarts. Heat marmalade until melted; strain and brush lightly over tarts.

CLEMENTINE CAKE

Steps:

• Put the clementines in a pot with cold water to cover, bring to the boil, and cook for 2 hours. Drain and, when cool, cut each clementine in half and remove the seeds. Then finely chop the skins, pith, and fruit in the processor (or by hand, of course).
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Butter and line an 8-inch springform pan with parchment paper.
• Beat the eggs. Add the sugar, almonds, and baking powder. Mix well, adding the chopped clementines. I don't like using the processor for this, and frankly, you can't balk at a little light stirring.
• Pour the cake mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 1 hour, when a skewer will come out clean; you'll probably have to cover the cake with foil after about 40 minutes to stop the top from burning. Remove from the oven and leave to cool, in the pan on a rack. When the cake is cold, you can take it out of the pan. I think this is better a day after it's made, but I don't complain about eating it anytime.
• I've also made this with an equal weight of oranges and lemons, in which case I increase the sugar to 1 1/4 cups and slightly Anglicize it, too, by adding a glaze made of confectioners' sugar mixed to a paste with lemon juice and a little water.

CLEMENTINE OLD FASHIONED

Steps:

• Strain clementine juice into an old fashioned glass. Add bourbon, lemon juice, and simple syrup. Add ice, stir to chill, and serve.
