• Cut a 3/4-inch wide strip off each side of the pastry and reserve. Roll out the pastry sheet on a lightly floured work surface to a 10-inch square and transfer to a sheet pan or cookie sheet. Brush the edges of the square with the egg. Working with 1 strip at a time, stand the strips along the edges of the pastry square and crimp where they meet. You want to create a shallow box, where the pastry square is the base and the 4 strips are the walls. Overlap the strips at the corners, stretching them, if necessary, to complete the walls of the box. Brush the border with the egg. Pierce the center of the pastry all over with fork. Bake until the pastry is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack and cool completely.
• Using an electric mixer, beat the cream to soft peaks. With the mixer still running, gradually add the sugar and continue to beat to stiff peaks.

Spoon the cream mixture into the prepared pastry crust. Arrange the berries over the cream. Sift the cocoa powder over and serve.
• Note: You can use any fruit that's in season (orange segments, berries, plums, bananas, grapes). Blueberries make a good substitute for the raspberries, and sliced peaches or nectarines are delicious as well.

LEMON BLUEBERRY PUFF TART

Steps:

• Whisk the juice, sugar eggs and yolks together in a saucepan, being careful not to aerate it too much. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly but gently with the whisk. Cook until it thickens and the whisk leaves light lines; it will still be quite liquid. Do not let it boil. Strain it into a bowl and press plastic wrap onto the hot surface.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Invert a 10-inch cake pan over the dough (towards the edge of the tray so you waste a minimum amount of dough) and press. Lift off and use a pizza cutter to cut around the imprint of the circle. Lift the circle of dough out and place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Dock it. Center the round metal bottom of 9-inch tart mold over the dough and press. Cut around at 1-inch intervals to form a decorative "fringe". Weigh the metal bottom down with heavy objects. (I place an 8-inch cake pan on top and fill it with stacked tartlet molds - about 3 1/2 pounds worth.)
• Bake about 18 minutes, until the edges are golden, then remove the weights and metal tart bottom. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F. and bake for another 5 to 7 minutes, until the center is golden. Remove from oven and spread the lemon curd evenly in the center. Put back in the oven for 2 to 3 minutes to set the filling.

BLUEBERRY-LEMON TART

Steps:

• To make the pastry, pulse the flour, sugar, and salt together in a food processor. Put in the chunks of butter, a little at a time, and pulse just until the dough resembles cornmeal. Add the egg yolk and the ice water; pulse again for a second just to pull the dough together. Wrap the dough tightly in plastic and let it rest and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to a 12-inch circle. Carefully roll the dough up onto the pin (this may take a little practice) and lay it inside a 10 1/2-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Press the dough into the scalloped edges of the pan and fold the excess dough inside to reinforce the rim.
• Put the tart pan on a cookie sheet and prick the bottom of the dough with a fork. Bake for 20 minutes. Lightly beat the egg white and brush the bottom and sides of the dough with it to seal any tiny holes. Bake for another 10 minutes.
• To make the lemon curd filling, whisk together the eggs, sugar, heavy cream, lemon juice, and zest. Pour the mixture into the tart shell. Spread the blueberries on top of the filling; they will float around and find their own space. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes. The curd will jiggle slightly when done. Carefully lift the tart out of the ring, then slide it off the base onto a plate. Cool to room temperature and slice.

BLUEBERRY CUSTARD TART

Steps:

• Pastry: flour the ball of pastry lightly, flatten it to 6 or 7 inch circle; put it on a floured pastry cloth.
• With a floured rolling pin roll the pastry until it forms a circle about 13 ½ to 14 inches in diameter.
• The dough will become very thin-it is important to keep it the same thickness all over.
• Transfer dough to tart pan, centering it carefully.
• Quickly ease the dough on the sides down into the pan, making the sides a little thicker.
• Using scissors, trim the edges, leaving an even ½ to ¾ inch border standing up over the rim of the pan.
• Fold in a narrow hem, about ¼ inch wide, folding toward the middle (not toward the outside) and leaving the rim of the pastry raised a bit above the edges of the pan.
• **With pastry pincers, form a design on the rim, or with the dull side of a knife blade, form shallow ridges on an angle to decorate it.
• Prick fork holes about ½ inch apart in the bottom of the pastry.
• Place the tart pan in the freezer for at least 15-20 minutes.
• To bake, adjust a rack one-third up from the bottom of the oven and preheat to 400°.
• Center a 12-inch square of foil, shiny side down, over the frozen shell; press the foil into place in the shell, and fill it with dried beans or pie weights.
• Bake for 15 minutes, remove the shell from oven; and slowly/gently remove the foil by raising all four corners at once.
• Return the shell to the oven; bake 5-10 minutes, until it is dry and the bottom barely begins to color; remove shell from oven and cool for about 10 minutes.
• Decrease oven temperature to 325°.
• Filling: wash and thoroughly dry blueberries; set aside.
• Sift together the sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg; set aside.
• In a large bowl, beat the eggs and egg yolks lightly just to mix; stir in the dry ingredients, vanilla, and cream.

• Gently and slowly pour part of the cream mixture over the berries.
• Do not fill the shell all the way or it might spill on the way to the oven.
• With the back of a large spoon, tap any berries that are on top of the custard just to wet the tops a bit.
• Place the pan in the oven, the reach in and pour in the remaining custard (if there are any low spots on the rim of the pastry, the custard will run over; watch it carefully and , if necessary, do not use the full amount.
• Bake for about 35 minutes, until the custard no longer shakes if you tap the pan, and until a small sharp knife gently inserted into the middle of the custard comes out clean.
• Let the tart cool to room temperature.
• Remove the sides of the pan by placing the pan on a shallow custard cup; the sides will slip down.

Cook at a rapid simmer over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until mixture is jamlike and moves around pan in a single mass when stirred, 15 to 25 minutes (time will depend on ripeness of fruit). Reserve 1 tablespoon cooking liquid (no solids) for blueberries; cool remaining plum mixture.
• Assemble tart: Leaving a 1-inch border, spread cooled plum mixture over tart. Reheat reserved plum liquid (on stove or in microwave) until liquefied.
