Yield Makes 2 tarts

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 sheet (about 1/2 pound) frozen puff pastry, thawed
2 1/2 teaspoons anchovy paste, or to taste
1 cup coarsely grated mozzarella (about 4 ounces)
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1 1/2 pounds vine-ripened tomatoes (8 small to medium), sliced thin
1 small red onion, halved lengthwise and sliced thin
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary leaves
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • On a lightly floured surface with a floured rolling pin roll out pastry into a rectangle roughly 17 by 15 inches and trim edges to form a 16- by 14-inch rectangle. Halve pastry lengthwise, forming two 16- by 7-inch rectangles.
  • Brush edges with water and fold in edges to form a 1/2-inch wide border on each rectangle. With tines of a fork press border to seal. Transfer rectangles to a large baking sheet.
  • Divide anchovy paste between rectangle and spread in a very thin, even layer. Sprinkle each tart evenly with 1/2 cup mozzarella and 2 tablespoons Parmesan. Arrange tomato slices in one layer on cheese. Scatter onion slices and herbs over tomatoes and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Bake tarts in upper third of oven 12 to 15 minutes, or until crust is golden. Tarts may be made 2 days ahead and chilled, covered loosely. Reheat tarts before serving. Serve tarts warm or at room temperature.

The tarts were a little too tart for my taste, but I think that's just because I used Roma tomatoes. I'll try using a sweeter variety of tomato next time.

I had a hard time finding fresh tomatoes, so I used canned tomatoes instead. The tarts still turned out great.

The tarts were a little bland for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.

I've made these tarts several times now, and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I love the way the flavors of the tomatoes, herbs, and cheese come together. The crust is also very easy to work with.

The tomatoes burst with flavor and the herbs added a nice touch of savory goodness. The crust was flaky and buttery, and the cheese was melted and gooey. Overall, these tarts were a delight to eat.

I had a little trouble getting the crust just right, but the tarts still turned out great. I think I just need to practice a bit more.

These herbed tomato tarts were a hit at my last dinner party! The combination of fresh tomatoes, herbs, and cheese was delicious, and the crust was flaky and golden brown. Everyone raved about them, and I'll definitely be making them again.
