Tomato Tart With Chickpea Crumble Recipes

ANNA'S TOMATO TART

Steps:

• Place the flour and 1 teaspoon of salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Add the butter and pulse 12 to 15 times, until the butter is the size of peas. Add the egg yolks and pulse a few times to combine. With the motor running, add the ice water through the feed tube and pulse until the dough starts to come together. Dump onto a floured board and roll it into a flat disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Meanwhile, place the tomatoes in a large bowl. Put the parsley, basil, garlic, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until finely minced. With the processor running, pour the olive oil down the feed tube and process until combined. Pour the mixture over the tomatoes and toss gently. Set aside.
• On a well-floured board, roll the dough out to an 11 x 17-inch rectangle and transfer it to the prepared sheet pan. Don't worry if it doesn't fit exactly; you want it to cover most of the bottom of the pan but it can be a little rough on the sides. Place a second sheet pan directly on the pastry and bake for 15 minutes. (You can also line the pastry with foil and fill it with dried beans.) Remove the top sheet pan (or the beans and foil). Using a dinner fork, pierce the pastry in many places. Bake for another 8 to 10 minutes, until lightly browned. Check the pastry during baking; pierce any spots that bubble up. Allow the crust to cool for 15 minutes.
• Lower the oven to 375 degrees. Brush the mustard on the crust with a pastry brush. Sprinkle a thick even layer of Gruyere on the pastry, reserving 1/2 cup for the top, and sprinkle with the 1/2 cup of Parmesan. Place overlapping tomatoes in rows on top. If there is a little garlic and herb mixture in the bowl, sprinkle it over the tomatoes, but if there is liquid in the bowl, strain it through a very-fine-mesh strainer, discard the liquid, and sprinkle the garlic and herb mixture on the tomatoes. Sprinkle the reserved 1/2 cup of Gruyere and the remaining 2 tablespoons of Parmesan on top. Bake for 30 minutes.
• Cool slightly, cut into squares, and serve warm or at room temperature.

HEIRLOOM TOMATO TART

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Fit the rolled-out dough into a 9-inch tart pan, allowing the edges to rise about 1/4 inch above the rim of the pan. Prick the dough all over with a fork.
• Line the dough with aluminum foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 15 minutes until beginning to brown at the edges. Remove from the oven and carefully remove the foil and weights. Increase the oven temperature to 375 degrees.
• Meanwhile, cut the tomatoes into 1/2-inch slices. Place in a colander to drain excess tomato liquid for 20 minutes.
• Spread 1/4 cup pesto in an even layer over the parbaked tart crust. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella over the pesto. Sprinkle the fresh basil and oregano over the cheese.
• In a medium bowl, prepare the custard: Whisk together the eggs, cream, salt and pepper until combined.
• Place the sliced tomatoes evenly over the cheese and herbs in overlapping concentric circles.
• Pour the custard evenly over the tomato slices. Swirl the pan to evenly distribute the liquid. Bake until the filling is set and won't jiggle when shaken, about 35 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving warm. This tart can also be served at room temperature.

BLACK PEPPER AND CHEDDAR-CRUSTED TOMATO TART RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the crust: Add the cheese crackers to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse for 20-30 seconds, until the crackers are broken down into crumbs.
• Add the flour, salt, and pepper to the food processor and blend for 20-30 seconds to incorporate into the cracker crumbs.
• Add the butter and cheddar cheese and blend for 30-60 seconds, until the butter is broken down into pea-sized pieces.
• Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl. Add the apple cider vinegar and 3 tablespoons of cold water and mix with your hands to combine. Add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the mixture holds together well, feels slightly damp, and does not crumble when pressed.
• Shape the dough into a disc and tightly wrap in plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• Lightly dust a clean surface and a rolling pin with flour. Set the chilled dough on the floured surface and begin to roll out the dough, starting from the center and working your way outwards, applying even pressure. The fewer passes of the rolling pin over the dough, the more tender the crust will be. Rotate the dough as you roll it out, using a bench scraper, as necessary to keep the dough from sticking to the surface. If the dough begins to feel sticky, lightly dust with more flour. Roll the dough out to ⅛- to ¼-inch (3 mm - 6 mm) thick. The dough should be wide enough to fit into a 11-inch (27 cm) tart pan with some excess dough overhanging.
• Wrap the dough around the rolling pin and transfer to the tart pan, gently draping it over. Press the dough down into the bottom of the pan and up the walls. Roll the rolling pin over the top of the pan to trim the edges. Transfer the tart crust to the refrigerator to chill while you cut out dough strips for the top.
• Gather the excess dough into a ball. Shape the dough in a rectangle and roll out to about 4 inches wide (10 cm) and 12 inches (30 cm) long, ⅛- to ¼-inch (3 mm - 6 mm) thick. Using a pastry cutter, trim off any excess dough so you are left with an even rectangle. Cut out ¼-inch and ½-inch-wide (6 mm - 12 mm) strips of dough. Transfer dough strips to plate and transfer to the refrigerator while you fill the tart crust.
• Remove the tart pan from the refrigerator and spread the mustard over the bottom of the crust. Cover the bottom of the crust with the cheddar cheese. Add a layer of tomato slices, overlapping slightly. Sprinkle with ¼ teaspoon of salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, ½ tablespoon of thyme, and half of the shallots. Repeat with a second layer of tomatoes and the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, ½ tablespoon thyme, and shallots.
• Remove the dough strips from the refrigerator, and create a decorative lattice design over the tart.
• Brush the beaten egg all over any exposed dough, including the edges around the tart pan.
• Bake the tart for 40-45 minutes, until the crust is a deep golden brown and crisp to the touch.
• Let the tart cool for 20 minutes to allow the tomato juices to absorb.
• Serve with a dollop of sour cream and fresh thyme leaves.
• Enjoy!

PLANT-BASED TOMATO TART

Steps:

• Soak the cashews in water for at least 1 hour, up to 8 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Drain cashews. Combine cashews, chickpeas, broth, seeded jalapeno, lemon juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, garlic, miso paste, salt, and pepper in a blender; blend until smooth and creamy. Set aside to allow flavors to meld.
• Put the pie crust into an 11-inch tart pan. (A 9-inch pie crust should be the right size because a tart pan is only about an inch shallow. If necessary, just roll out the pie crust a bit to stretch it out.)
• Layer two pieces of foil over the pie crust. Fill it with beans or pie weights. Turn down the heat to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Bake the pie crust in the preheated oven for 11 minutes. Remove from oven and take away foil and weights.
• Brush pie crust with 1 teaspoon olive oil. Poke a few holes in it with a fork and continue baking for 6 minutes. Remove and let cool. Turn down the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Cut tomatoes into 1/4 inch rounds. Remove the seeds. Cut the other jalapeno into rings.
• Spread cashew mixture into the pre-baked pie crust. Layer tomato slices on top, overlapping if necessary. Place jalapeno rings over the pie. Drizzle remaining olive oil on top. Sprinkle with paprika and 1/4 teaspoon flaky salt.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned and tomatoes have begun to caramelize, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool before serving.
