Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - ⌛ 10 min.

Make the Parmesan pastry:

Put in the food processor bowl: 100 g flour, 100 g butter, 1 egg, and 100 g Parmesan (Parmigiano Reggiano) grated.

Knead on low speed until the dough is evenly mixed. If you don't have a food processor, this can be done by hand.

Stage 2 - ⌛ 1 hour

Shape the pastry into a flat cake, wrap in plastic film, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

The pastry can be made the day before.

Stage 3 - ⌛ 25 min.

Peel 6 tomatoes, slice and salt on both sides.

Stage 4 - ⌛ 2 min.

Use a non-stick pan that can go both on the hob and in the oven. Pour in 2 tablespoons olive oil and spread over the pan with a brush or if necessary a small piece ofabsorbant paper.

Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).

Stage 5 - ⌛ 5 min.

Arrange the tomato slices in the pan over medium heat and cook for 5 minutes.

Stage 6 - ⌛ 7 min.

Meanwhile, roll out the pastry fairly thinly, prick all over and cut out a circle a little larger in diameter than the pan.

Stage 7 - ⌛ 1 min.

Pepper the tomatoes, place the pastry lid on top and put in the oven.

Stage 8 - ⌛ 40 min.

Leave to cook until the top of the pastry is golden brown.

Stage 9 - ⌛ 5 min.

Take out of the oven, leave to cool for 2 or 3 minutes, then turn the tart over onto the serving plate.

Serve immediately.

Remarks

And to drink?

A light Italian red wine from the Frioul region, such as Refosco.

Keeping: Several hours in the fridge, covered by a plastic film.

Source: Home made.

Dried apricots

Making your own dried apricots at home is perfectly feasible. It's really quite simple, though it takes a long time. Basically, the apricots need to be cut in half, destoned, then the halves put to dry slowly for several hours in a cool oven.

Crème brulée

Crème brûlée (burned cream) is quite easy to prepare: it's a simple egg-cream dessert. The only difficulty is in making the delicious crunchy caramel layer on top. The perfect crème brulée (for me) is a cold and soft cream, with on top a nice hot caramel crust. This is a completely new version of the former recipe, with video.

Clarified butter

This is a way of melting butter to eliminate all the impurities. The clarified butter can then be heated without spoiling, and is more digestible. It is ideal for cooking at high temperatures where small black specks would spoil the appearance, or for emulsified sauces like béarnaise or mousseline.
