ROSEMARY SHORTBREAD



Rosemary Shortbread image

This basic, buttery shortbread practically begs that you customize it to suit your own tastes or pantry supplies. The dough, which comes together quickly in a food processor, is already enhanced with rosemary, but nuts, seeds, citrus zest, spices, vanilla or minced dried fruit - or a combination of some of these - all make fine additions. Scale it up, scale it down. Add more salt, or use less. As long as you maintain the butter-flour ratio (one stick of butter for every cup of flour), you are free to play around. But the shortbread is delicious all on its own: tender, rich, crumbly, irresistible.

Time 45m

Yield One 8- or 9-inch shortbread

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon plus 1 pinch kosher salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted cold butter, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 to 2 teaspoons rosemary, chestnut or other dark, full-flavored honey (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. In a food processor, pulse together flour, sugar, rosemary and salt. Add butter, and honey if desired, and pulse to fine crumbs. Pulse a few more times until some crumbs start to come together, but don't overprocess. Dough should not be smooth.
  • Press dough into an ungreased 8- or 9-inch-square baking pan or 9-inch pie pan. Prick dough all over with a fork. Bake until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes for 9-inch pan, 45 to 50 minutes for 8-inch. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Cut into squares, bars or wedges while still warm.

Yield Makes 40 small bar cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

2¾ cups (330 grams) all-­purpose flour
1¼ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon ground cardamom
²⁄3 cup (132 grams) sugar
Grated zest of 1 Meyer lemon, or 1 teaspoon grated zest from a garden-­variety lemon
½ pound plus 6 tablespoons (312 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature
½ teaspoon plus ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
3 large egg yolks
¾ cup (178 milliliters) rose petal jam, or raspberry jam, homemade or store-­bought, scented with 1 teaspoon rose water

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and cardamom. In another bowl, combine the sugar and lemon zest, rubbing the zest into the sugar to perfume it.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a large bowl, using a handheld mixer), cream the butter on high speed until fluffy. Add the lemon sugar and salt and continue beating until light and fluffy. Reduce the speed to low and add the egg yolks one at a time, mixing after each addition, then add the dry ingredients and mix until fully combined.
  • Turn the dough out and divide into 2 equal pieces. Wrap each piece in plastic wrap and place in the freezer for at least 30 minutes. (The dough can be frozen for up to a month.)
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a quarter sheet pan with parchment.
  • Using the large holes on a box grater, grate one piece of the dough onto the prepared pan and spread lightly into an even layer (don't press it down into the pan). With an offset spatula, spread the jam evenly over the grated dough. Grate the remaining block of dough, then scatter the grated dough evenly over the jam layer; don't press down.
  • Transfer to the oven and bake until the top is golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool completely, then cut into 40 little bars. The cookies will keep in an airtight container for up to a week; baked cookies can also be frozen for up to a month.
