Step by step recipe


Stage 1 - 5 min.
Brioche tart with Comté cheese
Take 80 g from 350 g Savoury brioche dough.

Roll out the lump into a disk 25 cm (10 inches) in diameter.

Stage 2 - 3 min.
Brioche tart with Comté cheese
Place the disk in a cake tin of the same diameter. If it's a little too large, adjust the circumference by pressing the dough down firmly.

Stage 3 - 5 min.

With the small piece of dough, make a long, thin sausage, the length of which will be equal to the perimeter of the mold.

If you find it difficult to roll out, you can cut the dough into 2 pieces and make it into 2 pieces, which is easier.

Stage 4 - 3 min.
Brioche tart with Comté cheese
Brush a little gold around the edge of the pastry disc, then place the thin sausage around it, pressing it down to adhere to the disc.

This will create a base with a slightly higher edge, which will hold the Comté mixture well afterwards.

Stage 5 - 2 min.

Re-brown the edge, then cover with a tea towel or plastic sheet and set aside in a warm place for 1 hour.

After this time, prepare the Comté cheese mixture.

The Comté cheese mixture


Preheat oven to 180°C (360°F).

Pour grated 150 g Comté cheese, 100 g cream and 1 egg into a small bowl.

Season generously with pepper, but leave unsalted, and mix thoroughly.

Stage 7 - 2 min.

Stage 9 - 20 min.
Brioche tart with Comté cheese
Bake at 180°C (360°F) for approximately 20 minutes.

Check for doneness by stirring the pan a little, the center of the tart should be set, if not, continue baking a little longer.

Carve and enjoy, warm or hot if possible, with a small green salad and vinaigrette, for example.
Remarks
If you don't have a Jura wine, opt for a dry white.

In the original recipe, JF Piège just presses the edges of the pastry disc to create a hollow, and pre-cooks the pastry, but it's easier and more effective with an added edge.

Alternatively, you can roll out the dough to 2 or 3 cm more than the diameter of the mold, and fold the excess dough in on itself, towards the center, all the way around the mold to create a rim as well.

If you have a little too much Comté cheese mixture, set it aside to make delicious croque-monsieur later, by spreading it on slices of bread, before sending them to the oven for 10 minutes.
Keeping: 1 or 2 days in the fridge, protected by cling film.
