Quark And Blackberry Tarts Food

BLACKBERRY TART RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 Fahrenheit.
• Prebake the 9 inch or 9.5 inch tart crust at 400 Fahrenheit for 20 or 30 minutes according to my super detailed tutorial how to make tart crust shell from scratch. Let the tart shell cool slightly.
• In a bowl, toss 4 cups of blackberries, 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup flour, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon lemon zest. Combine thoroughly.
• Spoon this mixture into the cooled tart shell. Top with the remaining 1 cup of blackberries. Sprinkle 1 or 2 tablespoons white sugar over the berries, and then sprinkle thinly chopped cold butter on top, too.
• Place the tart on a rimmed baking sheet (to catch any juices) and bake for 30-40 minutes at 350 F until filling starts to bubble. If crust starts to brown too much, place a piece of aluminum foil over the tart.
• Serve warm with vanilla ice cream!

BLACKBERRY BUTTER TARTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place tart shells on a baking sheet.
• Mash blackberries and lemon zest together lightly in a small bowl. Divide blackberry mixture evenly into the bottom of tart shells.
• Whisk brown sugar, honey, egg, butter, vanilla extract, and salt together in a bowl; spoon mixture evenly over blackberries in shells.
• Bake in the preheated oven until filling is bubbly and shells are golden, 22 to 27 minutes.

SALLY'S FRESH BLACKBERRY TART

Steps:

• For Crust: In large mixing bowl, mix the flour, ground almonds, brown sugar and salt together. Rub the butter pieces into the flour mixture. Add the ice water and gently knead until dough comes together. Wrap in plastic and form in flat disc about 1-inch thick. Refrigerate dough for 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Sprinkle flour on the countertop and roll out the dough to an even thickness, round shape. Place dough round in a 10-inch tart pan with removable bottom. Fold any edges inside, forming a thicker crust. Leave the dough a bit longer than the edges of the tart pan to allow for shrinking during cooking. Line the inside of the crust with parchment paper or foil. Pour in the beans, filling to the edges. Bake about 20 minutes, or until bottom begins to look cooked. Let cool. Remove the beans and foil.
• For Tart: Toss the berries with the flour, salt, sugar, butter, and lemon juice and lemon zest. Stir in the brown sugar. Place the fruit in a saute pan over medium heat and cook just until a sauce is formed. Place the fruit in the baked crust and bake for about 40 minutes, or until the fruit bubbles and juice thickens.
• Remove from oven and cool for 2 hours before slicing.

QUARK AND BLACKBERRY TARTS

Steps:

• Crust: In a food processor, combine flour and sugar. Add butter and pulse until it resembles coarse meal. Add 3 Tbsp of whipping cream or milk and pulse until mixture forms a dough. If mixture is still too dry, add remaining cream or milk. Do not overprocess the dough. Remove from food processor and divide into 4 equal parts. Press the quarters of dough onto the bottom and sides of four 4 1/2 inch loose bottom tart tins. Place in freezer for half an hour.
• Heat oven to 375 F or 190°C Prick bottoms of tart shells. Line tart shells with tin foil and fill with baking weights or beans. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove weights and tin foil and return to oven for 10 minutes or until crust is golden. Turn oven up to 400 F or 200 CLet cool slightly on a rack while preparing the filling.
• Filling: In a medium bowl combine Quark, egg yolks, sugar, lemon zest, vanilla and salt until smooth. Divide the mixture between the four tart shells (it's alright if they are still warm). Sprinkle 1/4 cup of blackberries over each tart, spreading them out as necessary. Return tarts to oven and bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the filling is golden and set. Remove from oven and let cool on rack in tins for 10 minutes. Remove tart tins and let tarts cool fully.
• Blackberry Glaze: In a small saucepan, combine water and berries. Simmer over medium low heat, stirring and mashing berries, until berries are soft and falling apart, about 5 minutes. Strain water and berry mixture, squeezing as much juice as possible from the berries. You should have about 1/3 cup of juice. If you have less, add a little water to make 1/3 cup. Return juice to saucepan. Stir together sugar and cornstarch in a small bowl and add to juice. Bring mixture back to a simmer briefly until it thickens. Spoon glaze over tarts, spreading it to the edges with the back of a spoon. Refrigerate tarts until glaze is cool.
