Time 2h5m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 pinch white sugar
½ cup warm water
1 egg, at room temperature
3 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons lemon zest
½ teaspoon vegetable oil
½ red onion, sliced
1 cup shredded Gouda cheese
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 jarred roasted piquillo peppers, diced
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper to taste
2 eggs
1 ½ cups heavy cream
¼ teaspoon stone-ground mustard

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the yeast and sugar over 1/2 cup of warm water in a large bowl. The water should be no more than 100 degrees F (40 degrees C). Let stand for 5 minutes until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam. Beat in 1 egg and butter. Gently stir in the flour, salt, and lemon zest until the dough has pulled together. Gather the dough into a ball, then place in a lightly oiled bowl. Turn dough ball to coat with oil. Cover with a light cloth and let rise in a warm place (80 to 95 degrees F (27 to 35 degrees C)) until doubled in volume, about 45 minutes.
  • Punch down the dough, and place in a 10-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Spread dough out from the center using fingers. The dough should be thinner in the center and thicker at the edges. Chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle chilled tart shell with Gouda and Parmesan cheeses. Arrange the cooked onion and piquillo peppers decoratively over the cheese. Beat 2 eggs and heavy cream with the mustard in a bowl; pour egg mixture over the onion and cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is golden brown and the custard has set, 30 to 45 minutes.

I'm not a big fan of onions, but I loved this tart. The onions were cooked until they were soft and sweet, and the goat cheese balanced out the flavor perfectly.

This tart is a great make-ahead dish. I often make it the night before and then reheat it for dinner the next day.

I followed the recipe but added a bit of chopped fresh thyme to the onion mixture. It gave the tart a wonderful earthy flavor.
