Gingery Damson Plum Torte

Date: September 10, 2019 / By Nancy Olah

Even as iconic a dessert as Marian Burros' Original Plum Torte can benefit from a bit of improvisation. Although the classic recipe appears each year in the NY Times Cooking section at the peak of plum season,  its simplicity lends itself to modest enhancements that can make it even more ...
