HARVEST TART WITH PUMPKIN AND PEPPERS



Harvest Tart With Pumpkin and Peppers image

A savory, olive oil-crusted tart stuffed full of golden, roasted peppers, jammy onions and some freshly grated pumpkin is a great dinner party treat, although it's perfectly wonderful for a family evening repast as well. Salt the pumpkin ahead of time to draw out excess moisture, though if you are pressed for time you can skip this step. To perk up the caramelized intensity of the filling, it is helpful to fold in something zingy like olive or capers, or perhaps a good splash of lemon juice.

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 pounds pumpkin, preferably cheese pumpkin, or butternut squash, peeled, seeded and coarsely grated
2 1/4 teaspoons fine sea salt
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
3/4 cup plus 2 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for greasing
1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1/4-inch strips
1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1/4-inch strips
1 sweet onion, such as Vidalia, thinly sliced
1/3 cup chopped pitted black olives (kalamatas are good)
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon smoked sweet paprika
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 garlic clove, minced

Steps:

  • At least 2 hours or the night before baking, toss the pumpkin with 1/4 teaspoon salt in a colander set over a bowl. Place a heavy weight on top, cover with plastic and refrigerate. Discard any liquid in bottom of bowl.
  • To make the pastry, in a large bowl combine 4 1/2 cups flour and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. With pastry cutter or fork, mix in 3/4 cup oil until it forms coarse crumbs. Add about 2/3 cup very cold water, a few tablespoons at a time, until mixture just comes together. You may not need to add all the water, or you may need to use more water to achieve the right texture. The dough should be stretchier than a pie crust. Form into a ball, cover with plastic, and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Toss the peppers and onion with 2 1/2 tablespoons oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Spread on 2 large baking sheets in one layer. Roast, tossing occasionally, until vegetables are caramelized and golden, about 40 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin, pepper-onion mixture, olives, thyme, paprika, black pepper and garlic.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and grease a large baking sheet. Dust a work surface lightly with flour. Roll out dough into a 17-by-12-inch rectangle. With long side facing you, spread vegetable mixture evenly over right half of dough. Dab edges of dough with water. Fold left half over filling and pinch edges firmly to seal. Using knife, cut a slit in center of crust, pulling back edges slightly to form a 2 1/2-inch hole.
  • Transfer crust to baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, reduce heat to 350 degrees and continue baking until vegetables are fork tender and crust is well browned, 35 to 40 minutes longer. Cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.

BUCKWHEAT HARVEST TART



Buckwheat Harvest Tart image

This vegetarian tart is trifle elaborate, but it's the sort of substantial dish that even meat-eaters will enjoy. It came to The Times in 2012 from the self-taught vegetarian chef and blogger, Sara Forte.

Provided by Tara Parker-Pope

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cup buckwheat flour
3/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 to 3 tablespoons cold water
3 cups cubed butternut squash (1/4-inch cubes)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 bunch Swiss chard, stems removed, coarsely chopped (about 6 cups chopped)
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 small yellow onion
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3 eggs
1 cup grated Gruyère

Steps:

  • To make the crust: In a food processor, add both flours and the salt and pulse to combine. Add the butter and thyme and pulse until pea-size chunks form. Keep pulsing while adding the vinegar and then the cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, stopping when the dough just barely holds together. Form the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a 13-inch circle. It should be about 1/4 inch thick. Roll the dough around the rolling pin and lift it into an 11-inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom. Press the dough into the edges and up the sides, making sure to patch up any holes. Gently roll your rolling pin across the top of the tart pan to remove the extra dough and create a clean edge. Prick the bottom of the dough with a fork, lay a piece of parchment paper on top, and fill the tart shell with pie weights (at the Sprouted Kitchen, we use rocks from the yard - classy, I know). Bake for 15 minutes. Remove the weights and parchment, and bake until the top looks almost dry, 10 to 12 minutes more. Remove from the oven and let cool.
  • While the crust is cooling, prepare the filling. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss the squash with 1/2 tablespoon of the olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the nutmeg. Spread in an even layer and bake until the squash begins to brown around the edges, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
  • In a large sauté pan over medium heat, warm 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and the garlic. When the garlic starts to sizzle a bit and becomes fragrant, add the Swiss chard, red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt. Sauté until the chard is wilted, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and set aside.
  • Peel and halve the onion and thinly slice. In the same pan you used for the chard, heat the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and a pinch of salt and stir every so often until it is caramelized, about 20 minutes. When the onions are a nice light brown color, add the balsamic vinegar, stir and turn off the heat. The onions will absorb the vinegar as they cool a bit.
  • Squeeze out any excess water from the Swiss chard and return to the bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until they are blended well, then add to the chard. To the bowl with the chard, add three-fourths of the squash, half of the cheese, the onion and a few grinds of black pepper. Gently mix everything together and pour into the tart pan. Spread into an even layer. Scatter the remaining squash and cheese across the top. Bake in the oven until the egg is just set and the top is browned, 24 to 28 minutes. Remove the tart from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 to 10 minutes before cutting into slices and serving.

Categories     Liqueur     Fruit     Dessert     Bake     Thanksgiving     Dried Fruit     Prune     Raisin     Apple     Apricot     Walnut     Fall     Parade

Number Of Ingredients 14

For the pie dough:
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons (1 stick) cold butter
6 tablespoons cold solid vegetable shortening
About 6 tablespoons ice water
1 cup each: pitted prunes, dried apricots and peeled, chopped apples
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup shelled walnut halves
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2/3 cup Grand Marnier liqueur
1 egg, beaten

Steps:

  • 1. Make the dough: Sift the flour, sugar and salt into a bowl. Add the butter and shortening. Using fingertips or a pastry blender, rub the ingredients together until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Sprinkle in the ice water, 2 tablespoons at a time, stirring with a fork until the dough gathers together. Divide the dough into 2 disks; wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 2 hours.
  • 2. Preheat the oven to 350°:F.
  • 3. In a pot, place the fruits in water just to cover; simmer until tender, 20 minutes. Drain thoroughly and chop. Return to the pot; add the sugar, walnuts, butter and Grand Marnier; simmer for 5 minutes, stirring. Let cool.
  • 4. Roll a disk of dough into an 11-inch circle, 1/4-inch thick, on a lightly floured surface. Line a 9-inch pie pan, leaving a 1-inch overhang; spoon in the filling, mounding it slightly.
  • 5. Roll the remaining disk as before; cut into 1/2-inch strips and arrange lattice-fashion over the filling; crimp decoratively. Brush the lattice with the beaten egg.
  • 6. Bake the tart until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling, 30 to 35 minutes. Serve warm or cool.

Tips:

  • For the perfect crust, use a combination of all-purpose flour and almond flour. The almond flour adds a nutty flavor and a crumbly texture.
  • Don't overwork the dough. Overworking will make the crust tough.
  • Chill the dough before rolling it out. This will make it easier to work with and will help prevent the crust from shrinking in the oven.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the vegetables. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Roast the vegetables until they are tender and slightly caramelized. This will bring out their natural sweetness.
  • Don't overcrowd the tart pan. If you do, the vegetables will not cook evenly.
  • Bake the tart until the crust is golden brown and the vegetables are tender.
  • Let the tart cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Conclusion:

This harvest tart with pumpkin and peppers is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a fall gathering. The combination of sweet pumpkin, roasted peppers, and savory goat cheese is sure to please everyone. Serve it with a simple salad or a bowl of soup for a complete meal.
