Ingredients
Method

-
Take the dough out of the refrigerator, spread it into the tart pan, and cover it with a sheet of parchment paper topped with raw beans or rice.

The story behind this recipe
Besides having a fairytale color, this tart is a delicious combination of crispy & creamy, after which you will surely sigh and cut yourself another slice.
It takes a little bit of effort, and while you could make it with store-bought dough, it’s better when you know exactly what’s in it and prepare it at home.
For one tart, we need:
• Dough
150 g flour
70 g sugar
2 egg yolks
90 g butter
Grated lemon zest
A little fine salt
• Cream (panna cotta)
100 g fresh/frozen blueberries
150 g sugar
Fresh juice from 1/2 lemon
500 ml heavy cream
4 sheets of gelatin
We start by making the dough, mixing all the ingredients very well (the butter should be at room temperature).
We will get a ball that we leave in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
We take the dough out of the refrigerator, spread it into the tart pan, and cover it with a sheet of parchment paper upon which we should place raw beans; however, I didn't have any, so I used rice.
We put it in the preheated oven for 15 minutes at 180 degrees, then remove the top sheet with the rice/beans and leave it for another 10 minutes at the same temperature.
While the crust cools, we take care of the panna cotta.
We boil the blueberries with 50 g of sugar and lemon juice in a saucepan for 10 minutes over low heat.
We pass the whole composition through a sieve to get rid of the seeds & skins.
In another saucepan, we put the heavy cream and the rest of the sugar to heat.
We hydrate the gelatin in cold water for 5 minutes.
When the cream and sugar mixture is hot (be careful, it must not boil), we add the gelatin and the resulting blueberry sauce. We mix vigorously with a whisk and remove from the heat 🔥
We let it cool completely, both the crispy crust and the cream, after which we combine them.
You have to be patient for about 2 hours while it sits in the refrigerator!
