Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled), plus more for dusting
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
6 cups (six 1/2-pint containers) fresh blueberries, rinsed and dried
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest
3 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2/3 cup sugar
Pinch of salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a food processor, combine flour, sugar, salt, and butter; process until large moist crumbs form (dough should hold together when squeezed).
  • Transfer dough to a 9-inch round tart pan with a removable bottom; with floured fingers, press evenly into bottom and up sides. Freeze until firm, about 15 minutes; prick bottom of dough all over with a fork. Bake until golden, 20 to 25 minutes; cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, reserve 1 cup of the prettiest berries for topping. In a medium saucepan, bring 1/4 cup water and 1 1/2 cups berries to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat; simmer, stirring occasionally, until berries begin to break down, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water; stir into berries in pan. Add lemon zest and juice, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer, stirring, just until mixture begins to thicken, 30 to 60 seconds. Remove from heat. Stir in remaining 3 1/2 cups fresh berries. Immediately pour hot berry mixture into cooled tart shell, and smooth with a spatula.
  • Immediately pour hot berry mixture into cooled tart shell, and smooth with a spatula. Scatter reserved berries on top, pressing down lightly to help them adhere. Refrigerate until cool, about 30 minutes and up to overnight.

BLACKBERRY AND BLUEBERRY-GINGER YOGURT PARFAITS



Blackberry and Blueberry-Ginger Yogurt Parfaits image

These berries don't need much cooking time to stew down. However, you can change the fruits to apples, pears or even quinces and cook them in the slow cooker on low for about 5 hours. Let the slow cooker revolution continue! Best way forward for this brekky is to cook the fruit (frozen works well, too) and oats in batches so you have enough to last you throughout the week.

Provided by Lorraine Pascale

Number Of Ingredients 7

300 grams blueberries (about 2 cups)
300 grams blackberries (about 2 cups)
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 (1-cm piece) fresh ginger, peeled and very finely chopped
1 teaspoon sunflower oil or a little spray oil
100 grams oats (about 1 1/4 cups)
500 grams natural yogurt (about 2 cups)

Steps:

  • Put the berries in a wide, medium pan with the ground and fresh ginger and 2 teaspoons of water and place over a low heat. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the berries are soft and mushy. Remove from the heat and leave to cool completely before serving.
  • Meanwhile, using a paper towel, rub a medium non-stick frying pan with the oil or spritz with a little spray oil and set it over a medium heat. Add the oats and cook for 4-5 minutes, tossing frequently, until just catching color. Remove from the heat and leave to cool completely before serving.
  • Divide the yogurt, berries, and oats among four bowls and serve.

Blueberry-Buttermilk Tart image

Provided by Julia Moskin

Categories     dessert

Time 1h

Yield One 10-inch tart, about 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

8 ounces (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
2 large egg yolks (or 1 1/2 if extra-large or jumbo)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch fine sea salt
2 scant cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon cold heavy cream or milk
1 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 whole egg
3 egg yolks
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
Scrapings from 1/2 vanilla bean, or 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Pinch freshly grated nutmeg
1 pint (2 cups) blueberries, preferably wild
Lightly sweetened whipped crème fraîche or whipped heavy cream, or a combination, for serving optional

Steps:

  • To make crust: In a mixer, cream butter and sugar together until smooth and fluffy. Mix in yolks, vanilla and salt. Add flour all at once and mix just to combine. Add cream or milk and mix just until smooth. Form into a ball, flatten into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate, at least 1 hour or overnight.
  • On a floured surface, roll dough into a circle to fit a 10-inch tart pan. Transfer to pan and lightly press in, making sure dough rises about 1/4 inch above rim. Refrigerate in pan 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake until barely golden, about 30 minutes. Check halfway through baking and prick any bubbles with a sharp knife. Let cool to room temperature.
  • To make filling: whisk together sugar and cornstarch to remove any lumps. Whisk in egg, yolks, melted butter, buttermilk, vanilla or vanilla scrapings, salt and nutmeg, and pour into tart shell. Sprinkle surface evenly with 1 1/2 cups blueberries.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Bake tart until surface is barely golden and still wobbly in the center, 35 to 45 minutes. Remove and let cool to room temperature. Serve at room temperature or lightly chilled, with a dollop of whipped cream (if using) and remaining blueberries scattered over each serving.

Great tasting and a definite twist for gingerbread! Not overpowering. When storing, do not cover tightly, the top will become very moist instead of nice and crunchy. Serve plain or with a generous dollop of whipped cream.

Fresh ginger adds a spicy kick to this simple pie bursting with blueberries.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 7

All-purpose flour, for work surface
1 recipe Basic Pie Dough for Blueberry-Ginger Pie
8 cups blueberries (2 1/2 pounds total)
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon grated peeled fresh ginger

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees, with rack in lowest position. On a lightly floured piece of parchment paper, roll each disk of dough to a 14-inch round. Transfer one round (still on paper) to a baking sheet for top crust; refrigerate.
  • Line a 9-inch pie plate with remaining round of dough (do not stretch). Using kitchen shears, trim dough to a 1-inch overhang all around; refrigerate bottom crust.
  • In a large bowl, toss blueberries with sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and ginger; pour filling into bottom crust. Place chilled top crust over filling. Trim top crust to match bottom crust. Press edges of both crusts together, and fold overhang under itself; press to seal. Using thumb and forefinger, crimp edges. Cut a few slits in top of pie to let steam escape.
  • Place pie on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake 30 minutes; reduce heat to 375 degrees, and bake until crust is golden and juices are bubbling rapidly all over, 60 to 70 minutes more (if edges are browning too quickly, tent with aluminum foil). Transfer pie to a wire rack, and let cool to room temperature, at least 6 hours.

BLUEBERRY-GINGER CLAFOUTIS



Blueberry-Ginger Clafoutis image

One of the most wonderful ways to celebrate fresh (and, in this case, even frozen) fruit, clafoutis originated in the Limousin region of France. Here, a small part of the batter is baked in the baking dish, then the berries, ginger and the rest of the batter is layered on top to prevent the blueberries from sinking and burning. For maximum lemon flavor, zest the lemon over the batter in Step 3. You can substitute any type of fresh fruit - berries, grapes, or cherries; just remember to adjust the amount of sugar you add accordingly.

Provided by Nik Sharma

Categories     custards and puddings, dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened, for greasing the pan
2 cups/480 milliliters whole milk, at room temperature
3 large eggs
1 cup/200 grams plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 cup/128 grams all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons fresh lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon ground green cardamom
1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
2 cups/280 grams fresh or frozen blueberries
1/4 cup/55 grams crystallized ginger, chopped small
Confectioners' sugar, for finishing (optional)

Steps:

  • Place a rack at the upper level and a second in the middle of the oven. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease a 9-inch ceramic or glass baking dish or deep-dish pie plate (at least 1 1/2 quart capacity) well with butter.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, 1 cup sugar, flour, zest, cardamom and salt until smooth and combined, the sugar is dissolved, and there are no visible flecks of flour.
  • Pour enough batter into the greased baking dish to cover the base by about 1/2 inch. Place the baking dish on the top rack of the oven and cook until the batter is just about set - it should jiggle slightly in the center - about 15 to 17 minutes.
  • Remove the baking dish from the oven. Arrange the blueberries and the ginger on top in a single layer. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar over the fruit. Pour the remaining batter over the fruit, return the dish to the oven, and bake on the middle rack until the batter is completely cooked, about 60 to 65 minutes. The edges should be slightly firm and golden brown, and the center slightly jiggly. A knife inserted in the middle should come out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes.
  • Dust the top of the clafoutis with confectioners' sugar to taste and serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use fresh blueberries: Fresh blueberries have the best flavor and texture for this tart. If you can't find fresh blueberries, you can use frozen blueberries that have been thawed and drained.
  • Don't overcook the blueberries: The blueberries should be cooked until they are softened but still hold their shape. If you overcook the blueberries, they will become mushy.
  • Use a good quality ginger: The ginger is a key ingredient in this tart, so it's important to use a good quality ginger. Fresh ginger is best, but you can also use ground ginger if you don't have any fresh ginger on hand.
  • Don't overwork the pastry dough: The pastry dough should be mixed until it just comes together. If you overwork the dough, it will become tough.
  • Chill the tart before serving: The tart will set better if you chill it before serving. This will also help the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

This blueberry ginger tart is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The tart has a flaky pastry crust, a creamy ginger filling, and a sweet and tangy blueberry topping. It's sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it!
