HAZELNUT, PEAR AND CARDAMOM TART



Hazelnut, Pear and Cardamom Tart image

This is an elegant alternative to the holiday parade of sugary pies. Cardamom adds a grown-up twist to the classic combination of hazelnut and pear. (Don't overdo the spice, however, or your dessert will taste more like a cold remedy than a treat.) Cut corners by pressing out the crust, but don't skip making your own roasted hazelnut meal: The deep, caramel flavor of toasted nuts is worth the labor. Use ripe pears, or poach harder fruit until tender before adding to the tart.

Time 4h

Yield One 11-inch tart (about 10 servings)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Shortcut Pie Crust (see recipe)
10 ounces/285 grams whole raw hazelnuts
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
12 cardamom pods
1 1/4 cups/285 grams unsalted butter (2 1/2 sticks), at room temperature
1 1/2 cups/300 grams granulated sugar
3 large eggs
3 very ripe Anjou or Bartlett pears (about 1 1/2 pounds), each peeled, cored and cut lengthwise into 6 wedges
Crème fraîche, for serving

Steps:

  • Prepare the Shortcut Pie Crust through Step 3.
  • When ready to make the pie, heat the oven to 350 degrees. Roast the hazelnuts on a baking sheet until evenly browned and skins are loosened, 25 to 30 minutes. While they are still warm, rub them together in a dish towel to remove the skins. Cool the skinned hazelnuts, and then blitz them to a fine meal with the flour in the food processor. Transfer to a medium bowl and set aside.
  • Crush the cardamom pods and retrieve the seeds, discarding the pods, then crush the seeds to a fine powder using a mortar and pestle.
  • In a food processor, cream the butter, granulated sugar and crushed cardamom until pale and fluffy. With the machine running, add eggs one at a time, emulsifying each one fully before adding the next, and scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Transfer to the bowl with the hazelnut meal and stir to combine. Chill until firm, about 1 hour.
  • While the frangipane chills, shape and bake the crust: Working over an 11-inch fluted tart pan, prepare the Shortcut Pie Crust through Step 4, then chill, at least 30 minutes or up to 2 days. (This can be done ahead.)
  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Bake the chilled crust until just-cooked but not browned, about 15 minutes. (The crust will continue to cook while the tart bakes, so expect it to darken in color when it bakes the second time.) Cool completely.
  • Scoop the hazelnut frangipane into the crust. (Don't try to spread it; it will distribute itself evenly as it cooks.) Nestle the pears into the frangipane, tucking some underneath the frangipane and leaving others on top.
  • Bake on a baking sheet until the frangipane is fully set in the center and the crust is golden brown, 75 to 90 minutes. Cool on a wire rack completely, then remove from the pan and serve with crème fraîche.

CREAMY PEAR PIE

There aren't many recipes using fresh pears. I heard this recipe on the radio while I was driving the tractor in the field. I kept repeating the ingredients over and over until it was time to go in the house for lunch, then I wrote the recipe down on paper. We've enjoyed it every summer since.

2 tablespoons pear nectar
1 egg, beaten to blend (for glaze)
1 tablespoon sugar

Steps:

Soften dough slightly at room temperature before rolling out.)
  • Make filling:

  • Position rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 400°F. Roll out 1 dough disk between sheets of floured parchment paper to 13-inch round. Peel off top sheet of parchment. Invert dough into 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Peel off top sheet of parchment. Trim overhang to 1/2 inch. Transfer filling to crust. Roll out second dough disk between sheets of floured parchment to 13-inch round. Drape dough over filling. Trim overhang to 1/2 inch. Press edges together to seal; fold under. Crimp edge decoratively.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, firm pears. This will ensure that the pears hold their shape and don't get mushy in the pie.
  • Peel and core the pears carefully. You don't want any of the skin or seeds in the pie.
  • Slice the pears thinly. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a combination of spices in the filling. This will give the pie a complex flavor.
  • Don't overcook the pie. The pears should be tender but still hold their shape.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the crust to crisp up.

Conclusion:

Pear pie with cardamom cream is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert. It's perfect for a special occasion or a simple weeknight treat. The combination of sweet pears, warm spices, and creamy cardamom cream is sure to please everyone at the table.
