HEIRLOOM TOMATO AND BASIL TART image

Categories     Tomato     Bake     Cocktail Party     Fourth of July     Picnic     Vegetarian

Yield 12 3-inch squares

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 large heirloom tomatoes, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup ricotta cheese, crumbled
2 ounces aged goat cheese, grated
1 egg, beaten with 1 tablespoon water
1/4 cup basil chiffonade

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Toss the tomato slices with salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Arrange the tomato slices on a rack and let some of the moisture drain for 30 minutes. Roll the puff pastry to about 13x9-inch rectangle and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Fold the edges to create a half-inch border. Brush the interior of the rectangle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Arrange the tomato in overlapping slices on the pastry, leaving the borders clear. Sprinkle the tomatoes with the garlic, ricotta, and goat cheese. Brush the edges of the pastry with the egg wash. Place the tart in the oven and immediately reduce the heat to 400 degrees. Bake the tart until the pastry is puffed and golden and the tomatoes are tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove the tart from the oven and sprinkle with the basil. Cool for 10 minutes, slice, and serve.

I'm not usually a fan of tomato tarts, but this one was really good. The crust was flaky and the tomatoes were perfectly ripe.

I thought this tart was just okay. The crust was a bit too dry for my taste and the tomatoes were a bit bland. I think I would have liked it more if I had used a different type of crust and added some more seasonings.
