Caramelized Onion Tart With Olives And Anchovies Food

CARAMELIZED ONION TART WITH OLIVES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Melt butter with oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and thyme, and cook until onions are golden and soft, about 10 minutes.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out pastry, and trim to an 8 1/2-by-15-inch rectangle. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, transfer to oven, and immediately reduce oven to 400. Bake until pastry begins to rise, about 12 minutes.
• Arrange onions in a single layer over pastry, leaving a 1-inch border around edge. Top with olives and anchovies if using. Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce oven to 375 degrees, and bake until puffed and golden brown, about 15 minutes more (tent with foil if crust browns too quickly). Cut into squares.

CARAMELIZED-ONION TART WITH OLIVES AND ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into an 11-by-16-inch rectangle. Sprinkle cornmeal on a rimmed baking sheet and place dough on top.
• Spread onions over dough, leaving a 1-inch border. In a bowl, combine garlic with 1 tablespoon oil; arrange over onions and top with anchovies and olives. Season with salt and pepper. Brush edges of dough with 2 tablespoons oil. (If desired, score into individual servings before baking.) Bake until crust is golden brown and releases easily when a large metal spatula is slid underneath, 9 to 11 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

PISSALADIèRES - ONION & ANCHOVY TARTS RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add thyme and onions and cook, partially covered, stirring occasionally, until very soft, 30 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high, add sugar and vinegar, and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until caramelized, 12 to 15 minutes. Stir in olives, remove from heat, and set aside. Meanwhile, heat oven to 400°F. Roll out puff pastry to 1⁄8" thickness. Using a 2 1⁄2-inch cookie cutter, cut out 16 circles from each sheet. Transfer pastry circles to 2 parchment paper-lined baking sheets and prick each circle all over with tines of a fork. Cover circles with a sheet of parchment and another baking sheet; bake until light golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Uncover and bake until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer circles to a large serving platter, spoon about 1 teaspoon onion mixture over each, and top with a sliver of anchovy. Garnish with chives.

TOMATO TART WITH CAPERS, ANCHOVIES, AND CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat a large sauté pan or Dutch oven over high heat for 2 minutes. Swirl in 3 tablespoons olive oil, and add the onions, 2 teaspoons thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, and some pepper. Cook 10 minutes, stirring often. Turn the heat down to medium, add the butter, and cook 15 minutes, stirring often and scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, until the onions are a deep golden brown. Let cool completely before you make the tart, so they don't melt the pastry.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Place the defrosted puff pastry on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Use a paring knife to score an 1/8-inch-thick border around the edge of the pastry. Whisk together the egg yolk and 1 teaspoon water. Brush the border with the egg wash. Spread the caramelized onions evenly within the border.
• Core the heirloom tomatoes. Hold each tomato on its side and slice it into 1/4-inch-thick round slices. Place the tomato slices, just touching but not overlapping, on top of the caramelized onions (there will be some onion peeking through). If necessary, cut some of the tomato slices in half so they fit, placing the cut side of the slices flush with the border. Season the tomatoes with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grindings of black pepper.
• Slice the anchovies thinly on the diagonal.
• Arrange the anchovies, capers, and olives over the tomatoes and onions. Sprinkle the remaining teaspoon of thyme over the tart.
• Bake the tart 10 minutes. Turn the sheet pan, and bake another 10 to 12 minutes, until the crust is deep golden brown.
• Just before serving, place the cherry tomatoes and diced shallot in a bowl, and season them with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grindings of black pepper. Drizzle the super-good olive oil over the tomatoes, squeeze in a little lemon juice, and toss together. Add the arugula and herbs and toss well. Taste for seasoning. Cut the tart into six wedges, and place on six plates. Arrange some of the cherry tomato-herb salad next to each wedge of tart.

WARM OLIVE AND CARAMELIZED ONION TART

Steps:

• Combine flours in bowl, and freeze 1 hour. Freeze butter cubes 1 hour.
• In a bowl or food processor, mix frozen flour with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add butter, and cut with pastry blender or pulse until butter is size of peas. Add up to 1/4 cup ice water, just until mixture holds together (if using food processor, transfer mixture to bowl first). Turn onto lightly floured surface and pat into shape of small rectangle. Chunks of butter will show. Roll out dough, making rectangle about 5 by 7 inches, 1/2 inch thick. Fold narrow ends toward center so they meet. Fold in half again to make 4 layers. Give dough quarter turn, and repeat rolling and folding. Repeat another time. Roll dough again, but this time fold it in thirds like a business letter. Wrap in plastic, and refrigerate 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in large skillet over medium-low heat. Add onions, garlic, thyme and rosemary, and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft and golden, 50 to 60 minutes. Add tomatoes, increase heat and cook until almost dry, 10 to 15 minutes. Add anchovies and olives, season and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. On floured surface, roll dough to make rectangle 9 by 13 inches, 1/4 inch thick. Crimp edges, and transfer to baking sheet. Cover dough with onion mixture to within 1/2 inch of edge. Bake until crust is golden, 30 to 40 minutes. Cut in portions or small squares, and serve.
