STRAWBERRY TARTS WITH CREAM



Strawberry Tarts With Cream image

Double trouble! There are two kinds of strawberries in this tart recipe-three pints of fresh strawberries and three cups of strawberry preserves. Chef Tony Esnault's grandmother made this tart every summer for his birthday. "It's a tradition the whole family is happy to continue," he says.

Yield Makes 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 ounces (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, plus more for dusting (optional)
2 large egg yolks, plus 1 large egg, lightly beaten, for egg wash
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for surface
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 pints (6 cups) strawberries, hulled
3 cups strawberry preserves (two 12-ounce jars)
1 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Cream butter and 1 cup sugar until pale and fluffy. Add yolks, and beat until just incorporated. Add flour and salt, and beat until just incorporated. Shape dough into 2 disks, wrap each in plastic, and refrigerate at least 1 hour (or up to 3 days).
  • Roll out each disk into an 11-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Fit each round into the bottoms and up the sides of a 9-inch fluted tart pan with removable bottom. Prick the bottoms of dough with a fork, and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush crusts with egg wash. Bake, pressing down crusts if they start to bubble, until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool completely, and remove from pans.
  • Trim strawberries to about the same height. Heat preserves in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until loose. Strain through a fine sieve. You will have about 1 cup of solids. Spread 1/2 cup solids over bottom of each tart. Arrange strawberries in a single layer over the top, placing cut sides down. Brush strawberries with just enough warm glaze to make berries shiny. Dust with confectioners' sugar if desired.
  • Beat cream with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar just until thickened. Cut each tart into quarters, and serve slices topped with whipped cream.

STRAWBERRIES-AND-CREAM TART



Strawberries-and-Cream Tart image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 1h25m

Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large egg plus 1 egg yolk
2 tablespoons cold whole milk
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise and seeds scraped out
1 1/4 cups cold light cream
1 quart strawberries, hulled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Whisk the vegetable oil, egg yolk, milk and vinegar in a bowl. Pulse the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a food processor to combine; add the butter and pulse until the mixture looks like coarse meal. Add the milk mixture and pulse once or twice, just to moisten the flour.
  • Transfer the dough to a 9-inch-round tart pan with a removable bottom and pat onto the bottom and up the sides. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 30 minutes. Trim the edges, if necessary.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Pierce the dough all over with a fork. Line with foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Place the pan on a baking sheet and bake 15 minutes. Remove the foil and weights; continue to bake until golden, 10 to 15 more minutes. Beat the whole egg with 1 teaspoon water, then lightly brush over the crust and bake 5 more minutes. Cool completely on a rack.
  • Meanwhile, make the filling: Sprinkle the gelatin over 1 tablespoon cold water in a bowl and let soften 5 minutes. Put the granulated sugar and vanilla seeds in a saucepan and rub the seeds into the sugar with your fingers. Add 1 cup cream and whisk over medium heat to dissolve the sugar. When the mixture comes to a boil, remove from the heat and whisk in the gelatin mixture. Transfer to a bowl, then set in a larger bowl of ice water and stir with a rubber spatula until the mixture begins to thicken. Add the remaining 1/4 cup cream and stir until thick, about 2 minutes. Pour into the tart shell and refrigerate until set, about 1 hour.
  • Before serving, top the tart with the strawberries and confectioners' sugar.

Provided by Anna Olson

Categories     bake,Bake With Anna Olson,dessert,fruit,Party Favourites,pastry,snack,Spring,Summer

Yield 24-30

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup 2% milk
½ vanilla bean OR 1 1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste
3 large egg yolks
3 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp cornstarch
2 tbsp unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
4 tsp sugar
¼ tsp salt
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
30 fresh strawberries, stems removed

Steps:

  • Heat the milk with the scraped seeds of the vanilla bean or the vanilla bean paste until just below a simmer.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks, sugar and cornstarch. Ready a bowl with the butter, placing a strainer on top of it.
  • Gradually whisk the hot milk into egg mixture and then return it all to the pot. Whisk this constantly (switching to a spatula now and again, to get into the corners) over medium heat until thickened and glossy, about 2 minutes. Pour this immediately through the strainer, whisking it through if needed, and stir in the butter. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly over the surface of the custard, cool to room temperature and then chill completely until ready to use.
  • The pastry cream will keep up to 4 days refrigerated.
  • Makes about 1 ½ cups.
  • For crust, preheat the oven to 350 F and lightly grease mini muffin tins.
  • Combine the flour, graham cracker crumbs, sugar and salt in a bowl. Add the melted butter and mix until an even crumbly texture. Spoon about a tablespoonful of the mixture into each muffin cup and press it into the bottom and up the sides. Bake these for 10 minutes, then cool before assembling.
  • Use a skewer to gently remove each tart shell from the tin Stir the vanilla pastry cream to soften and then spoon or pipe the filling into each cup and then arrange a strawberry on top of each. Chill until ready to serve.
  • The tart shells and pastry cream can be prepared up to a day in advance, but should be assembled within a few hours of serving.

STRAWBERRY AND RASPBERRY TART WITH MEYER LEMON PASTRY CREAM



Strawberry and Raspberry Tart with Meyer Lemon Pastry Cream image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     dessert

Time 1h45m

Yield 2 tarts

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 stick (8 tablespoons) cold, unsalted butter
1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 1/4 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 large eggs plus 1 egg yolk
Ice water, as needed
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 1/4 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Peel of 1 Meyer lemon (strips removed with a peeler)
3 tablespoons apricot preserves
1 cup raspberries
5 strawberries, hulled and sliced
Freshly whipped cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Grate the butter on a box grater and add to the bowl of a food processor with the flour, 1/4 cup of the sugar and the salt. Pulse to combine until the mixture resembles Parmesan cheese. Add the egg yolk and 3 tablespoons of ice water. Pulse to combine until the dough comes together and holds its shape when pressed between your fingers. Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface. Gently knead a few times and bring the dough together into a ball, then flatten into a disc. Roll the dough out evenly into a 1/4-inch-thick circle. Transfer the dough onto a sheet tray and cover with plastic wrap. Place into the fridge to rest for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the dough from the fridge and roll evenly in all directions, making sure it doesn't stick to your work surface and dusting with flour as needed. The dough should be about 1/8-inch thick. Slice the dough in half and transfer to two nonstick 6-inch fluted tart pans with removable bottoms. Press the dough snuggly into the edges ensuring the dough runs fully up the side. Use a rolling pin to trim the excess dough. Line each tart with a piece of foil and fill with baking beans (or I use rice!), making sure the foil is tightly packed to the corners. Transfer the dough to the oven to blind bake for 6 minutes. Rotate the pan, then bake for another 6 minutes. Remove the foil and baking beans and place the tart back into the oven until lightly golden, another 4 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Set up an ice bath. Add the cornstarch and 1/4 cup of the heavy cream to a small bowl. Mix to create a slurry and set aside. Add 1/2 cup of the sugar and the 4 whole eggs to a large bowl and beat with a whisk until pale yellow and foamy. Add the remaining 2 cups heavy cream, the remaining 1/2 cup sugar, the vanilla extract and lemon peel to a small saucepan and whisk to combine. Turn the heat to medium-high and bring to a boil, then pour half of the mixture into the bowl with the eggs and sugar and immediately whisk vigorously to combine and temper the mixture. Pour the contents of the bowl into the saucepan and continue to whisk. Add the cornstarch slurry and whisk to combine. Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to whisk until the mixture begins to thicken and it reaches the texture of pudding, 3 to 4 minutes. You want to continuously whisk to avoid scorching the mixture. Strain through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl. Set the bowl over the ice bath to cool.
  • Place the apricot preserves and a splash of water into a small saute pan. Turn the heat to medium and stir to gently melt the preserves, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
  • To assemble the tart, spoon an even layer of the lemon pastry cream into each tart shell, but not fully to the top. Line the outside of the tart with raspberries and working inward, arrange the inside of the tart with the sliced strawberries. Repeat this process alternating with more raspberries and strawberries. Glaze the top of each tart with the apricot mixture.
  • Serve the tarts with a dollop of whipped cream. Enjoy!

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Yield Makes 6 four-inch tarts

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tablespoons plus 3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 large egg yolk, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon ice water, plus more as needed
1 1/2 pounds (2 pints) fresh strawberries, hulled, washed, and halved or quartered if large
2 cups creme fraiche

Steps:

  • Place the flour, 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar, and salt in a food processor. Pulse to combine. Add butter, and process until mixture resembles coarse meal.
  • In a small bowl, mix together egg yolk and ice water. With machine running, add egg mixture in a slow, steady stream through the feed tube. Process until dough just holds together, about 20 seconds. If dough feels dry, add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Divide the dough evenly among six 4-inch tartlet pans; gently press into pans. Prick bottoms with a fork. Refrigerate shells until firm to the touch, at least 30 minutes.
  • Line each shell with foil, and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Place tart pans on a rimmed baking sheet; bake until the edges just begin to brown, about 15 minutes. Remove foil and weights. Continue to bake until bottom of crust is golden brown and crisp, about 10 minutes more. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely. Remove shells from pans.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, mix strawberries with remaining 3 tablespoons sugar. Cover with plastic wrap, and let macerate until juicy, about 1 hour.
  • When ready to serve, fill each tart shell with about 1/3 cup creme fraiche; divide strawberries evenly among tarts.

STRAWBERRY CREAM CHEESE TARTS



Strawberry Cream Cheese Tarts image

A tasty little tart with a light strawberry syrup drizzled over the top that's perfect for dessert for that special someone after a homemade dinner date. This takes a bit of time but is worth it.

Provided by Chef Zachary

Categories     Fruit Tarts

Time 1h25m

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups white sugar
2 cups frozen strawberries, thawed, with juice
3 sticks unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup water, or as needed
2 ½ cups powdered sugar
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup whipping cream
fresh mint leaves

Steps:

  • Combine sugar, thawed strawberries, and any strawberry juice in a heavy pot over medium heat. Stir constantly and bring to a boil, being careful not to burn the sugar. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature, 15 to 30 minutes. Place syrup in the refrigerator to chill, about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 24-cup mini muffin tins.
  • Cut butter into flour until well mixed and granular. Mix in just enough water (1 tablespoon at a time) to make a dough.
  • Roll dough on a floured working surface with a floured rolling pin until very thin and almost transparent. Use a large round cookie cutter to cut out circles of dough. Lightly press circles into the prepared muffin cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until light brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
  • Meanwhile, beat powdered sugar, cream cheese, and whipping cream together until well mixed.
  • Fill each cooled pastry crust with cream cheese filling, then drizzle with strawberry syrup and garnish with mint leaves.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh, ripe strawberries. If using frozen strawberries, thaw them completely and drain off any excess liquid before using.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing it with the other ingredients. This will help to ensure a smooth and creamy filling.
  • If you don't have a tart pan, you can use a 9-inch pie plate instead. Just trim the edges of the pastry dough so that they fit inside the pie plate.
  • To prevent the tart shells from becoming soggy, pre-bake them for 10-12 minutes before filling them.
  • When filling the tart shells, be sure to leave a little bit of space at the top so that the filling doesn't overflow when it bakes.
  • Bake the tarts for 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
  • Allow the tarts to cool completely before serving. This will help the filling to firm up and the crust to become crispy.

Conclusion:

Strawberry and cream tarts are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a sweet and creamy treat that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give these strawberry and cream tarts a try!
