STRAWBERRY "BANDANNA" TART

Strawberry

The secret to making a bandanna you can eat with a fork-aka this fruit tart with a cutout crust-is using aspic cutters in varied shapes, such as circles and ovals. This just so happens to be our favorite dessert to serve for a patriotic holiday like Memorial Day or the Fourth of July.

Yield Makes one 9-inch tart

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

8 cups strawberries (about 3 pounds), hulled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup cornstarch
All-purpose flour, for dusting
Pate Brisee for Strawberry "Bandana" Tart
1 large egg
1 tablespoon water
Fine sanding sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

Combine strawberries and sugar, and let stand 1 hour. Drain, discarding liquid. Add cornstarch to berries, and stir.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out half the dough into an 11-inch square. Fit into a 9-inch square fluted tart pan with a removable bottom, pressing dough gently into sides. Prick bottom with a fork. Spread strawberry mixture over dough.
On a lightly floured work surface, roll out remaining dough into an 11-inch square. Cut out shapes as desired (keeping at least a 2-inch border). If dough becomes too soft to work with, refrigerate until firm. Carefully place dough over filling, and trim any overhanging dough. Press edges to seal.
Whisk together egg and water, and brush egg wash over top crust. Sprinkle with sanding sugar.
Place tart on a baking sheet, and bake 25 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 400 degrees. Bake until filling is bubbling, 30 to 35 minutes. If crust browns too quickly, cover with parchment paper and then foil. Let cool completely before unmolding. Cut into squares, and serve.

Tips:

Use ripe bananas, kiwis and strawberries for the best flavor and texture.
If you don't have a tart pan, you can use a 9-inch pie plate.
Be careful not to overmix the crust dough, or it will become tough.
Chill the crust dough for at least 30 minutes before baking, this will help it keep its shape.
Bake the crust until it is golden brown and cooked through.
Let the crust cool completely before filling it.
Use a sharp knife to slice the bananas and kiwis.
Arrange the fruit slices in a decorative pattern on top of the custard.
Chill the tart for at least 2 hours before serving, this will help the flavors to meld.

Conclusion:

This banana kiwi strawberry tart is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The creamy custard filling and the fresh fruit topping make this tart a real crowd-pleaser. With its beautiful presentation and amazing taste, this tart is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
