RASPBERRY CHOCOLATE ALMOND SPREAD

Steps:

• Fit a large pot with a rack, or line with a folded kitchen towel. Fill with water and bring to a boil. Add 4 half-pint canning jars and boil for 10 minutes. Jars may be left in the warm water in the pot until ready to be filled. (Alternatively, sterilize jars by running them through a dishwasher cycle, leaving them there until ready to fill.)
• Place canning rings in a small saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Turn off heat and add lids to soften their rubber gaskets. Rings and lids may be left in the water until jars are filled.
• In a large, heavy pan, combine raspberries and sugar. Bring to a simmer, stirring, until sugar has dissolved. Put raspberry-sugar mixture through the fine disk of a food mill or press through a fine sieve to remove seeds. Some seeds may remain; don't worry.
• Return mixture to pan, add lemon juice, and bring back to a boil. Boil, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes. Add chocolate and stir well until completely melted. Boil hard for five minutes, stirring all the while. Turn off the heat, wait a minute or two, then push against the mixture. If the surface of the jam wrinkles a bit, it is the correct consistency. If not, return to the heat for another minute or two and try the wrinkle test again. Add almond extract and almonds and stir to combine.
• Ladle hot preserves into the warm jars, leaving 1/4 inch at the top, just below the first ring on the jar's neck. Wipe jar rims clean with a damp towel. Place lids on jars, screw on rings and lower jars back into the pot of boiling water. Return to a full boil and boil the jars for 10 minutes. Transfer jars to a folded towel and allow to cool for 12 hours; you should hear them making a pinging sound as they seal.
• Test the seals by removing rings and lifting jars by the flat lid. If the lid releases, the seal has not formed. Unsealed jars should be refrigerated and used within a month, or reprocessed. (Rings and jars may be reused, but a new flat lid must be used each time jars are processed.) To reprocess, reheat filling to boiling point (as in Step 4), then continue as before.

WHITE CHOCOLATE-RASPBERRY TART, WITH ALMONDS AND PISTACHIOS

Steps:

• You will need a tart pan with a removable bottom that has been lined with baking parchment.
• Roast the nuts by popping them into a medium oven for 10 minutes or so, until they are just going brown - keep a close eye on them. Put to one side.
• For the tart crust, put the flour, sugar and butter into a food processor and pulse until you have fine crumbs. Add the egg and 2 tablespoons of the water and pulse until a dough ball starts to come together, add the rest of the water gradually until you have a smooth dough. (you may need more or less water).
• Shape the dough into a disk, pop into a plastic bag and let it rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.
• When rested, place the dough onto a floured surface and roll it out to fit the tart pan. Trim excess pastry and chill for 20 minutes.
• Heat the oven to 350ºF while the pastry is chilling. After removing the case from the fridge, pop a piece of foil or baking parchment onto the crust and fill with baking beans or pie weights. Bake for about 15-20 minutes, edges should be just tuning brown, remove the weights and cook for 5-10 minutes more, or until golden. Remove from oven and cool completely on a wire rack.
• For the tart filling:.
• Spread the raspberries evenly over the tart crust, sprinkle half the almonds and pistachios over the raspberries.
• In a double boiler, over a gentle heat, melt the chocolate and butter. Stir gently and remove from heat, add the vanilla/almond extract and the cream and stir gently until mixed.
• Pour the chocolate cream over the raspberries and nuts, work quickly as the chocolate will begin to set, smooth top with a spatula or spoon.
• Immediately sprinkle with remaining nuts.
• Refrigerate for 4-5 hours and remove from fridge 30 minutes before serving, dust with icing sugar.
• Notes: If you prefer you can omit the pistachios and another variation is to replace the raspberries with blueberries, although I have not tried it this way. You must use fresh fruit, not frozen. Time does not include refrigeration time.
