Best 8 Pate Sucree For Plum Tart Recipes

PATE SUCREE FOR PLUM TARTE TATIN

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse flour, sugar, and salt until combined. Add butter, and process until mixture resembles coarse meal, 8 to 10 seconds.
• In a small bowl, beat together egg yolks and ice water. With machine running, pour egg-yolk mixture in a steady stream through the feed tube; process until dough just holds together when pinched, 10 to 15 seconds.
• Divide dough in half. Flatten each half into a disk; wrap in plastic. Refrigerate dough at least 1 hour or overnight or freeze up to 1 month.

PâTE SUCRéE (SWEET TART DOUGH)

Steps:

• In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter, sugar, and salt on medium speed until pale and creamy, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add the flour and mix on low speed for about 30 seconds, until the flour is incorporated. The mixture will look like wet, clumpy sand. Add the egg yolk and mix on low speed until the yolk is evenly incorporated and the dough is clumpy, about 30 seconds. Using your hand, lightly knead the dough into a ball inside the bowl. Remove the dough from the bowl, press it into a 6-inch disk, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and let it rest in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. (The dough can be tightly wrapped in plastic and stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. If frozen, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight before using.)
• Lightly spray a 10-inch tart pan with a removable bottom or a 9-inch pie shell with nonstick cooking spray with flour. Place the chilled dough inside the pan. Pinch off pieces of dough and press them against the sides of the pan to reach just shy of a ¼ inch thick and about ⅛ inch above the rim (you'll trim the top later). Using the heel of your hand, press the rest of the dough evenly into the bottom of the pan. (It will look like a mess, and it may seem like you won't have enough dough at first, but have faith, it will come together.) Be sure there are no seams in the dough, and press it squarely along the corners where the bottom meets the sides to avoid extra-thick edges. Use a paring knife to trim the top edge of the dough so it is even with the rim of the pan. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the freezer for at least 30 minutes to chill.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F and set an oven rack in the middle position.
• Place the chilled pâte sucrée on a baking sheet (for easy handling) and bake for 23 to 26 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let cool to room temperature on a wire rack.

PATE SUCREE EXTRA

Steps:

• Combine flour, sugar, and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse to combine. Add butter, and process just until mixture resembles a coarse meal, about 10 seconds.
• With machine running, add 1/4 cup ice water in a slow, steady stream through feed tube. Drizzle in egg yolks, and process just until dough holds together without being wet or sticky, about 30 seconds. Test dough by squeezing a small amount together. If it is crumbly, add a bit more ice water.
• Divide dough in half. Pat into discs, and wrap in plastic. Chill for at least 1 hour.

SUMMER PLUM TART

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and set a 4 1/2-by-14-inch bottomless tart form on top. Set the baking sheet aside.
• On a clean work surface, roll out pate sucree to a 7 1/2-by-17-inch rectangle, about 1/8 inch thick. Roll the rectangle onto pin; unroll over form; let extra dough hang over edge. Using knuckles, fit dough into form.
• Crumble almond paste evenly over dough, and sprinkle flour evenly over almond paste. Arrange sliced plums in a fish-scale pattern on top of the dough; sprinkle plums with sugar.
• Fold overhanging dough over plums; tear, creating a 1-inch free-form edge. Transfer the baking sheet to the refrigerator; chill dough 10 to 15 minutes.
• In a small bowl, combine egg yolk and cream; beat lightly. Brush chilled pastry with egg wash.
• Bake until crust is golden brown and fruit bubbles, about 35 minutes. Transfer tart to a wire rack.
• In a small saucepan, combine jam and 2 tablespoons water. Set pan over medium heat, and cook until warm. Remove pan from heat, and pass glaze through a sieve; discard any solids. Brush warm glaze over plums in tart. Let glaze cool slightly, remove tart form, and serve.

EASY PATE SUCREE FOR TARTS

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Add butter and yolk and process until mixture resembles a coarse meal, approximately 10 seconds. (To mix by hand, combine dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl; using a pastry blender or two table knives, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal.)
• With the machine running, gradually add water through the feed tube. Process just until dough holds together without being wet or sticky; do not process more than 30 seconds. Test the dough at this point by squeezing a small amount together. If it is crumbly, add a bit more water.
• Turn dough out onto a large piece of plastic wrap. Grasping the ends of the plastic wrap with your hands, press dough into a flat circle with your fists. This makes rolling easier than if the pastry is chilled as a ball. Wrap dough in plastic and chill for at least an hour.

PATE SUCREE TARTS

Steps:

• Place flour, sugar, and salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade, and pulse to combine. Add butter, and process until mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds.
• In a small bowl, lightly beat yolks with the water.With machine running, add yolk mixture and process just until dough holds together, no more than 20 seconds. Divide dough in half, form into flat disks and wrap in plastic. Chill in refrigerator until ready to use, at least 2 hours.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disk of pate sucree 1/8 inch thick to fit a 4-by-14-inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom, allowing about an inch extra on all sides. Brush off excess flour with a pastry brush. Carefully transfer dough to tart pan, pressing it into edges and sides; trim excess by running rolling pin over the pan. Prick the bottom of the dough all over with a fork. Cover with plastic wrap, and chill in refrigerator at least 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Remove pans from refrigerator, and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Line each with a piece of aluminum foil that overhangs the edges by at least 2 inches. Fill foil with pie weights or dried beans; fold foil to enclose, making sure edges of tart are supported by the foil and weights.
• Bake until edges are just starting to color, about 25 minutes. Remove foil and weights; continue baking until crust is crisp and evenly browned, 10 to 15 minutes more.Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before removing shells.
