TOMATO AND GOAT CHEESE TARTS



Tomato and Goat Cheese Tarts image

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     appetizer

Time 55m

Yield 4 individual tarts

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 package (17.3 ounces/2 sheets) puff pastry, defrosted
Good olive oil
4 cups thinly sliced yellow onions (2 large onions)
3 large garlic cloves, cut into thin slivers
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons dry white wine
2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme leaves
4 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan, plus 2 ounces shaved with a vegetable peeler
4 ounces garlic-and-herb goat cheese (recommended: Montrachet)
1 large tomato, cut into four 1/4-inch-thick slices
3 tablespoons julienned basil leaves

Steps:

  • Unfold a sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and roll it lightly to an 11 by 11-inch square. Using a 6-inch wide saucer or other round object as a guide, cut 2 circles from the sheet of puff pastry, discarding the scraps. Repeat with the second pastry sheet to make 4 circles in all. Place the pastry circles on 2 sheet pans lined with parchment paper and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium to low heat and add the onions and garlic. Saute for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onions are limp and there is almost no moisture remaining in the skillet. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, the wine, and thyme and continue to cook for another 10 minutes, until the onions are lightly browned. Remove from the heat.
  • Using a sharp paring knife, score a 1/4-inch-wide border around each pastry circle. Prick the pastry inside the score lines with the tines of a fork and sprinkle a tablespoon of grated Parmesan on each round, staying inside the scored border.
  • Place 1/4 of the onion mixture on each circle, again staying within the scored edge. Crumble 1 ounce of goat cheese on top of the onions. Place a slice of tomato in the center of each tart. Brush the tomato lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with basil, salt, and pepper. Finally, scatter 4 or 5 shards of Parmesan on each tart.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown. The bottom sheet pan may need an extra few minutes in the oven. Serve hot or warm.

TOMATO AND GOAT CHEESE TART



Tomato and Goat Cheese Tart image

The tomato tarts and quiches I've been eating in Provence are delightful. Spreading mustard on the crust before you top it with tomatoes is a new idea that makes perfect sense to me, as mustard is such a perfect condiment for tomatoes.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 yeasted olive oil pastry (1/2 recipe)

POTATO TART WITH GOAT CHEESE AND THYME



Potato Tart With Goat Cheese and Thyme image

Store-bought puff pastry is the true workhorse in this elegant recipe, which involves three basic components: puff pastry, cheese and potatoes. When cooking with limited ingredients, quality is key, so use puff pastry made with real butter if you can get it - the flavor is better and the puff is, simply put, puffier. The dough is formed by a process called "lamination" in which alternating layers of butter and dough are folded together. As it bakes, the butter creates steam between the layers, providing the puff. Be sure to use the tines of a fork to "dock" the dough before baking; this creates little chutes for steam to escape instead of getting trapped and forming unsightly bubbles. Master the puff pastry part and this tart is easy and versatile: Play around with various spices and top with any fresh herbs you have on hand.

Categories     dinner, easy, pies and tarts, main course

Time 1h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 (14-ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 pound baby potatoes, preferably in different colors
8 ounces fresh ricotta
1 (4-ounce) log firm goat cheese
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll puff pastry into a 10-by-14-inch rectangle. Place puff pastry on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Using a paring knife, lightly score a border around the perimeter of the puff pastry, about a 1/2 inch away from the edges. Using a fork, prick the pastry every few inches inside the border to prevent puffing, then bake on top rack until puffy and lightly golden, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, fit a large pot with a steamer basket. Add enough water to come just below the steamer basket and bring to a boil. Add the potatoes, reduce the heat to a simmer, cover and steam until potatoes can be pierced with the tip of a knife, but are still firm, about 20 minutes. Transfer steamer basket to a large bowl and allow to cool until you can handle the potatoes. Slice potatoes crosswise 1/4-inch thick and season with salt and pepper.
  • While potatoes cook, blend ricotta, goat cheese, paprika and 1 teaspoon salt in a food processor until smooth. Working within the border, spread the cheese mixture evenly on the puff pastry. Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on top of cheese mixture and brush the potatoes with the melted butter.
  • Transfer to the oven and bake until the edges of the cheese are slightly golden, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves and serve.

  • Place tarts on small baking sheet. Bake until filling is heated through and potato crust browns, 18 to 20 minutes. Sprinkle each with remaining goat cheese.
  • Push up pan bottoms, releasing tarts. Arrange tarts on plates. Spoon Heirloom Tomato Salad alongside and serve.

TOMATO AND CHEDDAR TARTLETS



Tomato and Cheddar Tartlets image

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 tartlets

Number Of Ingredients 7

One 14-ounce box refrigerated rolled pie crusts (2 pie rounds)
24 cherry tomatoes, halved crosswise
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 heaping cup grated extra-sharp aged white Cheddar
Small fresh basil leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Unroll 1 pie dough into a round. Arrange three 4 1/4-inch nonstick tartlet pans on the dough and use a paring knife to cut a circle of dough around each that is about 1/2 inch larger than the pan; these don't have to be perfect, but you want to make sure you cut enough excess dough to fill the pan and up the sides. Press the dough evenly into each pan; if any excess dough goes over the top, simply use the top edge of the tartlet pan to cut it away. Use a fork to dock the bottom of the pie crusts. Repeat this process with 3 more tartlet pans and the remaining pie dough. Place the 6 tartlet pans on a baking sheet and put in the freezer for 10 minutes.
  • In a medium bowl, toss together the cherry tomatoes, garlic, salt and pepper. Let the tomatoes sit for 10 to 15 minutes for the flavors to combine.
  • Bake the crusts until the dough is cooked part of the way through without any color and bubbles form on the bottom and sides, about 6 minutes. Let cool slightly.
  • To each tartlet, add about 3 tablespoons of grated Cheddar and spread evenly over the bottom. Top the cheese in each with 8 tomato halves cut-side up, making sure to get some garlic with each tomato. Bake until the crusts are golden brown, the cheese is bubbling and the tomatoes are softened but have not burst, about 30 minutes. Let cool until cool enough to handle, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the tartlets from the tart pans and garnish with small basil leaves.
  • These tartlets can be stored in the refrigerator after they have cooled completely and reheated in the oven the next day for great leftovers!

CHEESE, HERB & TOMATO TART



Cheese, Herb & Tomato Tart image

I made this to take to a dinner party. Not only is it easy, it is super yummy and beautiful! Using a tart pan with removable sides make for a nicer presentation. Combing the two cheeses works best, but you can use one or the other. Don't be tempted to add more cheese than suggested, it will be too thick with cheese and changes the outcome, IMO.

Potato, Tomato, and Cheese Tart (with some tips)

Here are some additional tips for making this recipe a success, based on the various sources and some additional information.

  • Use a good quality puff pastry. This is the key ingredient in this recipe, so make sure it's fresh and not too dry. If you can't find puff pastry, you can use shortcrust pastry or another similar pastry.
  • Make sure the cheese is coarsely grated. This will help it to melt evenly throughout the quiche.
  • When blind-baking the pastry shell, make sure the bottom of the pastry is covered with parchment paper and filled with pie weight or uncooked rice. This will help to prevent the sides of the pastry from sinking down.
  • Don't overcook the quiche. It should be set in the center, but still have a slight wobble. Overcooked quiche will be dry and tough.
  • Chill the quiche completely before serving. This will help it to set properly, and make it easier to cut cleanly.

Conclusion

This recipe for Potato, Tomato, and Cheese Tart is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect as an appetizer, a main course, or a side dish.
