When I told my friend (and fellow southern cookbook author) James Villas that I was making almond tassies, he had a fit. "There is no such thing," he said. Its true that tassies (miniature tartlets) are traditionally made with pecans. But I happen to have history on my side. Almonds have been imported into the South since colonial times, and they were once as commonplace in holiday baking as pecans are today. Im not sure that will convince James to make these, but trust me—theyre absolutely delicious.
