Yield Makes enough for two 9-inch tarts

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
3/4 cup coarse yellow cornmeal
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh sage
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
3 large egg yolks
5 tablespoons ice water

Steps:

  • Pulse flour, cornmeal, sugar, sage, salt, and lemon zest in a food processor until combined. Add butter; pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Whisk egg yolks and ice water in a small bowl. With machine running, add to flour mixture through feed tube; process until dough just holds together.
  • Turn out dough onto a work surface. Divide in half, and shape each portion into a disk. Wrap in plastic, and refrigerate 30 minutes (or up to 2 days).
  • On a lightly floured work surface, roll out 1 disk to a 10-inch round. Fit into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom; trim edges flush with rim. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour (or up to 1 day). Reserve remaining dough for another use (it can be frozen up to 3 months).
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prick bottom of tart shell with a fork. Bake until golden brown, about 25 minutes. Let cool.

I'm not a big fan of sage, so I omitted it from the recipe. The crust still turned out delicious.

This recipe is a great base for experimenting with different flavors. I've tried adding herbs, spices, and even cheese to the dough, and it always turns out great.

The crust was a bit too dry for my liking. I think I'll add an extra egg next time.

The crust was delicious, but I found it to be a bit too thick for my taste. Next time I'll try rolling it out thinner.
