Gooseberry Tart image

For the prettiest presentation, use a combination of green (1 cup) and red gooseberries (2 1/2 cups). Currant jelly yields a dessert that's quite tart, so if you want to go slightly sweeter, try apricot. Either way, serve with dollops of freshly whipped cream.

Time 5h10m

Yield Makes one 10-inch tart; Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 sticks (1 cup) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
2 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
2 to 4 tablespoons cold heavy cream or ice water
Unbleached all-purpose flour, for dusting
3 cups (about 18 ounces) gooseberries, trimmed
3/4 cup sugar
4 teaspoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup currant or apricot jelly

Steps:

  • Pate Sucree:Pulse flour, sugar, and salt in a food processor until combined. Add butter and pulse just until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add yolks and drizzle 2 tablespoons cream evenly over mixture; pulse just until dough begins to come together, no more than 30 seconds. If dough is too dry, add remaining cream, 1 tablespoon at a time, and pulse. Divide dough in half, pat each half into a disk, and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 2 days, or freeze up to 3 months (thaw in refrigerator overnight before using).
  • Tart:Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place a foil-lined baking sheet on bottom rack. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disk of dough to a 13-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick (reserve remaining disk for another use). Fit into a 10-inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom. Trim edges flush with rim. Refrigerate 15 minutes.
  • Cut 1/2 cup gooseberries in half and squeeze to release a little liquid. Toss all gooseberries with sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Spread evenly into chilled crust.
  • Bake until bubbling in center and some of the fruit is blackened on top, 1 hour, 15 minutes to 1 hour, 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool 2 hours. In a small saucepan, heat jelly until melted. Brush over gooseberries; let set, about 15 minutes.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tart turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked it.

This tart was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I love gooseberries, so I was excited to try this recipe. The tart was delicious, but the crust was a little too crumbly for my taste.
