Time 1h10m

Yield TK

Number Of Ingredients 11

5 ounces finely ground blanched almonds
1/4 pound unsalted butter, at room temperature
4 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 cups flour
1 small egg, beaten
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 pints of perfect, ripe strawberries, approximately
1 six-ounce jar of red-currant jelly
1 tablespoon plain gelatin
1/4 cup Grand Marnier
Nasturtium flowers for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • Mix all the crust ingredients together until well blended.
  • Press into a nine-inch tart pan with a removable bottom, taking care to keep the thickness of the crust uniform.
  • Chill for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a light golden color. Cool before filling.
  • To assemble, hull the berries and arrange them upside down in the tart shell.
  • Prepare a glaze by melting the jelly, gelatin and Grand Marnier in a saucepan. Stir over low heat until mixture is clear. Spoon or brush over the berries.
  • Decorate the tart with bright orange nasturtium flowers.

This tart was a disaster! The crust was too dry and the filling was too runny. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This tart was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. The crust was nice and flaky and the strawberries were fresh and juicy. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling next time.

This tart was easy to make and turned out beautifully. The crust was a little crumbly, but the filling was delicious. I would recommend using fresh strawberries for the best flavor.

I'm not a huge fan of strawberries, but this tart was surprisingly delicious. The crust was flaky and buttery, and the strawberries were perfectly ripe and juicy. I would definitely make this again.

This strawberry tart was a huge hit at my last dinner party! The almond-nut crust was perfectly crispy and flavorful, and the strawberry filling was sweet and tart. I will definitely be making this again.
