BLUEBERRY-LEMON TART

Steps:

• To make the pastry, pulse the flour, sugar, and salt together in a food processor. Add the butter and pulse until the dough resembles cornmeal. Add the egg yolk and 2 tablespoons ice water and pulse again until the dough pulls together. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Roll the dough up onto the pin and lay it inside a 10-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Press the dough into the edges of the pan and fold the excess dough inside to reinforce the rim. Cover the tart pan with plastic wrap and put it into the refrigerator for another 30 minutes to rest.
• To bake the shell, heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Put the tart pan on a baking sheet and prick the bottom of the dough with a fork. Cover the shell with a piece of parchment paper and fill it with pie weights or dry beans. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove the parchment and weights. Lightly beat the egg white with 1 teaspoon water and brush it onto the bottom and sides of the tart shell; set aside to cool.
• Whisk together the eggs, sugar, lemon juice, cream, zest, and salt. Add the blueberries to the cooled tart shell and pour the filling over the blueberries. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes. The curd should jiggle slightly when done. Cool to room temperature, remove from the tart ring, and serve.

LEMON BERRY TART

Steps:

• 1. In a food processor*, combine flour, confectioners' sugar, and salt. Process until blended. Add butter and process with on-and-off pulses until coarse crumbs form. In a small cup beat together the egg yolk and water with a fork, then add to the processor and process until dough comes together. With fingers, press the dough into a 9" tart pan with a removable bottom. Place in the freezer for 15 minutes.
• 2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line the tart shell with aluminum foil, extending the edges of the foil to cover the edge of the tart. Fill with baking weights, rice or dried beans. Bake for 15-20 minutes. Remove foil and weights. Bake for another 12 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Let cool on a wire rack.
• 3. In a medium saucepan over low heat, whisk together the lemon juice, eggs and sugar until well blended. Cook, stirring constantly with a heat-proof spatula, 5 minutes or until the mixture is hot. Whisk in the butter, a few pieces at a time, until just melted and fully incorporated. Continue to cook, stirring constantly and scraping bottom of pan with spatula, 3 to 5 minutes until the filling is thick and smooth. Do NOT let mixture boil, or it may curdle. Scrape the filling through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl. Stir in the lemon zest.
