TANGERINE, GINGER AND CHOCOLATE TART



Tangerine, Ginger and Chocolate Tart image

This elegant tart has a tangy citrus curd nestled in a ginger shortbread crust coated with bittersweet chocolate. The chocolate not only adds flavor, it also helps the pastry stay crisp by creating a barrier between the liquid curd and the pre-baked crust. This tart is best served the day it's made, but can be stored for 24 hours in the refrigerator; after that, it starts to wilt. If you want to turn the leftover dough scraps into buttery cookies, see the note.

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 3/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons/235 grams all-purpose flour
1/3 cup/40 grams confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons/30 grams chopped crystallized ginger
Pinch of kosher salt
1/2 cup/113 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), cold and cubed
1 large egg, lightly beaten
6 large egg yolks
3 large eggs
3/4 cup fresh tangerine juice (from 3 to 4 large tangerines)
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (from about 2 lemons)
3 tablespoons finely grated tangerine zest
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons/125 grams granulated sugar
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup/170 grams unsalted butter (1 1/2 sticks), cubed
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup/45 grams bittersweet chocolate, chopped, or use chips or baking discs (1 1/2 ounces)
1/2 cup crème fraîche or sour cream
2 tablespoons/30 grams chopped crystallized ginger
Chocolate curls, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Place the flour, sugar, crystallized ginger and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse to combine.
  • Add butter and pulse until a coarse meal forms. Add egg and pulse just until a crumbly dough comes together. Press dough into a disk, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least 1 hour or overnight (or up to 5 days).
  • Prepare the curd: In a large, heatproof bowl, whisk together yolks and whole eggs. In a medium pot over medium heat, combine tangerine juice, lemon juice, 1 1/2 tablespoons tangerine zest, 3/4 teaspoon lemon zest, sugar, ginger, salt and butter. Once mixture is simmering, slowly pour into eggs, whisking constantly, then return mixture to pot. Cook, stirring constantly, over medium-low heat, until curd thickens enough to coat a spoon, 4 to 7 minutes. Strain into a medium bowl and stir in remaining tangerine and lemon zest and vanilla. If not using immediately, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use, up to 5 days.
  • Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to 3/8-inch thickness (about an 11-inch round). Place dough into a 9-inch tart pan, trimming the dough edges. Poke bottom of dough all over with a fork; chill for at least 30 minutes and up to 24 hours.
  • Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Line the tart crust with foil and fill with baking weights. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil and weights and continue to bake until shell is light golden, another 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Remove crust from oven and immediately sprinkle chopped chocolate evenly over the bottom. Let it sit for 1 minute to melt chocolate, then spread over the surface using an offset spatula. Let the chocolate cool for 5 minutes.
  • Scrape curd into crust. Bake until the edges are set but the center is still slightly jiggly when shaken, 25 to 35 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together crème fraîche and crystallized ginger. To serve, top the cooled tart with crème fraîche and shave chocolate curls all over the top if you like.

Guinness®, Chocolate, and Caramel Tart image

A bittersweet, dark, Guinness®-chocolate layer sits atop chewy caramel and salty pretzels for a rich dessert that's sure to wow. Plan ahead as this takes quite a bit of prep and cooling time. Make sure to read through the entire recipe before starting. Serve this tart at room temp, topped with some whiskey whipped cream, extra pretzels, and a sprinkle of sea salt to taste.

Provided by Kim

Time 3h50m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 ½ cups finely crushed pretzels
⅓ cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
⅛ teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 cup heavy cream
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 ½ cups white sugar
¼ cup light corn syrup
¼ cup water
11 ¼ fluid ounces Irish stout beer (such as Guinness® Extra Stout)
1 ¼ ounces dark chocolate candy bar
6 ounces dark chocolate chips (such as Ghirardelli® 60% Cacao)
½ tablespoon unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
  • Mix pretzel crumbs, brown sugar, melted butter, and salt together in a bowl until mixture resembles wet sand. Pour into the tart pan, and press very firmly and evenly up the sides and into the bottom of the pan.
  • Place tart pan onto a baking sheet and bake until crust is golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Allow crust to cool completely in pan, about 30 minutes.
  • Combine heavy cream, butter, vanilla extract, and salt in a small saucepan over medium-low heat and cook until butter is melted and mixture begins to bubble, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat, set aside, and keep warm.
  • Combine sugar, corn syrup, and water in a large light-colored saucepan with high sides. Cook over medium heat, swirling occasionally, until mixture is amber in color, 10 to 12 minutes. Reduce heat to low, and very carefully whisk in reserved cream-butter mixture, as caramel mixture will bubble up and steam; stir constantly.
  • Insert a candy thermometer into the mixture and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until caramel reaches 245 degrees F (118 degrees C), 25 to 30 minutes. Carefully pour caramel into an even layer in the baked and cooled crust. Allow caramel layer to cool until set, 1 to 2 hours.
  • Prepare the chocolate layer. Pour stout beer into a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until stout has been reduced to 1/4 cup, 20 to 25 minutes. Pour reduced stout into a large bowl. Stir in chopped chocolate, chocolate chips, butter, and vanilla and set aside.
  • Heat cream in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until just simmering, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour over chocolate and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Stir until chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Carefully pour melted chocolate over the cooled caramel layer, making sure not overflow the pan.
  • Use a toothpick to pop any air bubbles that may arise. Allow chocolate layer to cool and set up completely, 1 to 2 hours.

CRANBERRY TANGERINE AND CANDIED GINGER TART WITH CARDAMOM CRUMBLES



Cranberry Tangerine and Candied Ginger Tart with Cardamom Crumbles image

The flavors of this tart remind me of an exotic Moroccan dessert. I like serving this with pistachio ice cream and steaming hot cups of mint tea. Delicious! I typically bake this tart one day ahead and leave it overnight at room temperature. Feel free to use your favorite tart dough, or my recipe below.

Provided by Hedy Goldsmith

Categories     dessert

Time 4h25m

Yield One 10-inch pie, 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
4 ounces unsalted butter, very cold and cut into 1-inch cubes
6 tablespoons heavy cream
Butter, for greasing
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
2 tablespoons tangerine zest
1 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
6 ounces unsalted butter, chilled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3/4 cup granulated sugar
Zest of 2 tangerines
6 cups fresh cranberries, washed and dried
1/2 cup candied ginger, cut into small pieces
1/3 cup dark brown sugar, packed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • For the tart dough: Combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. Add the cold butter and toss to coat. Pinch the butter and flour together until the butter is flaky. Start to rub in between your fingers until it looks like coarse cornmeal.
  • In the center of the bowl pour the cream. Using a rubber spatula, turn the flour over in the bowl repeating until the cream is absorbed. With your fingers press the dough to form a compact disc. Remove the dough. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill, about 1 hour.
  • Working quickly, roll the dough into a 13-inch circle and carefully place it into a greased 10-inch tart pan. Gently fold the excess dough against the sides creating a reinforced crust. Press down the dough, trimming if there is extra that extends beyond the pan. Chill for an additional 30 minutes.
  • Place kitchen parchment paper over the chilled dough, fill with weights, beans or raw rice are prefect. Bake, 15 to 18 minutes. Reduce the oven temperate to 350 degrees F. Carefully remove the parchment and continue baking until the tart shell is golden brown and fully baked, 10 to 12 minutes. Set aside and allow to completely cool.
  • For the cardamom crumbles: Begin the cardamom crumbles in a bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, with the sugar and tangerine zest. In the palms of your hands, rub together the sugar and zest to release the tangerine oils. Add the flour, cardamom, cinnamon, ginger and salt and mix at medium speed until small clumps of dough form. Dump onto a sheet pan. Chill until needed. This can be made up to 2 days ahead.
  • For the cranberry tart: In the palms of your hands, rub together the sugar and zest in a large bowl. Add the cranberries, candied ginger and brown sugar and toss well. Fill the baked tart shell with the cranberries, top with the cardamom crumbles and bake until golden brown and the cranberries begin to bubble up through the crumble, 45 to 50 minutes.
  • Remove the tart from the oven and allow to cool to room temperature. I prefer waiting an hour or longer before cutting the tart. This gives the very juicy cranberries time to cool, allowing the tart to set up. I've even let it sit all night on the counter.

CHOCOLATE & GINGER TORTE



Chocolate & ginger torte image

This decadent dessert with a triple-ginger hit is a chocoholic's dream

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 14

250g unsalted butter , diced, plus extra for the tin
cocoa , for dusting
350g dark chocolate , chopped
2 tbsp Stone's ginger wine
140g caster sugar
100g light muscovado sugar
5 eggs , separated
75g ground almonds
1 tsp ground ginger
1 heaped tbsp ginger preserve
140g dark chocolate , finely chopped
150ml double cream
25g unsalted butter
2 tbsp Stone's Ginger wine

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 170C/150C fan/gas 3-4. Butter and line a 23cm round springform tin with a disc of buttered baking parchment. Lightly dust the inside of the tin with cocoa and tip out excess.
  • Put the chocolate and butter into a medium-size heatproof bowl, add the ginger wine and set the bowl over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir occasionally until melted and smooth. Remove from the heat and cool slightly.
  • Tip both the sugars into a large mixing bowl or the bowl of an electric mixer and add the egg yolks. Whisk until pale and light. Pour the melted chocolate and butter into the yolks and stir until smooth. With another large, spotlessly clean bowl and whisk, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they just hold a stiff peak.
  • Sift the almonds and ginger into the chocolate mixture and fold in using a large metal spoon. Add one-third of the egg whites and stir in to loosen the mixture. Fold in the remaining egg whites until combined.
  • Spoon half the mixture into the prepared tin and gently spread level using a palette knife. Gently warm the ginger preserve until it's just spreadable and carefully spoon onto the cake in small dollops. Spoon over the remaining chocolate mixture, spread level and bake just below the middle shelf of the oven for 50 mins-1 hr until a wooden skewer inserted into the middle of the cake comes out with a moist crumb attached. Allow the cake to cool in the tin and don't be dismayed if the top sinks and cracks.
  • To make the ganache icing, tip the chocolate into a heatproof bowl. Then add the cream, butter and ginger wine. Set the bowl over a pan of barely simmering water and stir until melted and velvety smooth. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly.
  • Carefully run a palette knife around the edge of the cake to loosen it, then put on a serving plate. Spread the ganache over the top, and leave to set before serving.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and tools ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the baking process.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your tart the best flavor. If possible, buy organic ingredients to ensure the highest quality.
  • Blind Bake Your Tart Crust: Blind baking helps to prevent the tart crust from becoming soggy. To blind bake, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the tart crust for 10-12 minutes. Then, remove the crust from the oven and let it cool completely before filling it.
  • Don't Overmix the Filling: Overmixing the filling can make it tough. Stir the filling just until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Chill the Tart Before Serving: Chilling the tart before serving helps the flavors to meld and the tart to set. Chill the tart for at least 2 hours, or overnight.

Conclusion:

This tangerine-ginger-chocolate tart is a delicious and impressive dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The tart crust is flaky and buttery, the filling is creamy and tangy, and the chocolate ganache is rich and decadent. With its beautiful presentation and amazing flavor, this tart is sure to be a hit with your friends and family.
