Ever wonder what happens to the food Martha and her team make for the show? Thomas Joseph, Assistant TV Chef for the Martha Stewart Show, wrote us a note and sent these beautiful pics giving us a peek at the impressive stuff they do with their leftovers:
"On Friday, Martha made poached pears with Philip Seymour Hoffman and the other cast mates of "Jack Goes Boating," leaving us at the studio with boatloads of leftover poached pears. Having had a batch of pate brisee in the freezer and a couple knobs of butter, we transformed these delicious fruits into yet another fantastic dessert."
1 poached pears
2 poached pears + pate brisee
3 poached pears + pate brisee = pear tart!
