Ingredients

Method

  1. Make the dough by mixing all the ingredients very well (the butter should be at room temperature).

  2. Form the dough into a ball and leave it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.

  3. 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.

  4. Bake in a preheated oven for 15 minutes at 180 degrees, then remove the sheet with rice/beans and bake for another 10 minutes at the same temperature.

  5. While the crust cools, boil the blueberries with 50 g of sugar and lemon juice for 10 minutes over low heat.

  6. Strain the blueberry mixture to get rid of the seeds and skins.

  7. In another saucepan, heat the heavy cream with the rest of the sugar.

  8. Hydrate the gelatin in cold water for 5 minutes.

  9. When the cream and sugar mixture is hot (without boiling), add the gelatin and the blueberry sauce, whisking vigorously, then remove from heat.

  10. Allow both the crust and the cream to cool completely, then combine them.

  11. Keep in the refrigerator for about 2 hours before serving.

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!
