SOUR CHERRY TART



Sour Cherry Tart image

Gloria Zimmerman picks well-ripened sour cherries from the cherry tree in a friend's yard each summer, pits them and freezes them. Although this tart can be made with sweet cherries, it is better made with sour cherries. The pate brisee recipe is very rich and must be handled with care to make it conform to the tart mold. The unglazed tart should not be refrigerated; it should be served while still lukewarm - difficult to do in a restaurant - with strong coffee.

Categories     dinner, dessert

Time 3h30m

Yield One 11-inch tart

Number Of Ingredients 10

About 3/4 cup flour (4 ounces)
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
3/4 stick (3 ounces) cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3 tablespoons ice-cold water
1 1/4 pounds sour cherries, pitted
2 tablespoons minute tapioca
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1/4 cup almonds ground in a food processor with 1 tablespoon sugar

Steps:

  • For the pate brisee, place the flour, sugar, salt and butter pieces in owl and crush the butter into the dry ingredients with the tips of your fingers until combined somewhat but with pieces of butter still visible in the mixture. Add the ice water and stir with a fork just until the mixture holds together. Gather it up, pressing it between your hands to flatten it and make it round, and wrap it in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for one hour.
  • Rub a small amount of flour into a pastry cloth and roll the dough into a very thin circle, about 12 1/2 inches in diameter. Roll the dough onto the rolling pin and gently fit it into the bottom and up the sides of an 11-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Press the dough against the sides of the pan to fill in any holes and make it adhere to the metal. Remove any excess overhanging dough by rolling the rolling pin across the top of the pan. Refrigerate the tart shell for one hour.
  • Meanwhile, in a bowl combine the cherries, tapioca, sugar and almond extract. Sprinkle the ground almond-sugar mixture in the pastry shell and arrange the cherry mixture on top. Place the tart pan on a cookie sheet and bake in a 400-degree oven for one to one-and-a-quarter hours, until the dough is nicely browned. Unmold and serve with strong coffee.

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup white sugar

½ cup white sugar, or more to taste
¼ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon almond extract, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Combine flour and sugar for crust in a bowl. Cut in butter using hands to mix and mush until thoroughly combined and mixture resembles tiny pebbles or cornmeal. Stir in almonds.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh cherries. If fresh cherries are not available, you can use frozen cherries, but be sure to thaw them completely before using.
  • If you don't have almond flour, you can make your own by grinding almonds in a food processor until they are finely ground.
  • To make the streusel topping, you can use either butter or margarine. If you use butter, be sure to let it soften at room temperature before using.
  • Be sure to preheat your oven before baking the tart. This will help to ensure that the crust is cooked evenly.
  • Let the tart cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent the filling from spilling out.

Conclusion:

This cherry almond streusel tart is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The sweet and tart cherries are complemented perfectly by the nutty almond filling and the buttery streusel topping. Whether you are serving it to your family or friends, this tart is sure to be a hit.
