Yield Makes 6 hors d'oeuvre or side-dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 sheet frozen puff pastry (from a 17 1/4-oz package), thawed
2 lb plum tomatoes (8 large), halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme
1/2 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano shavings plus additional for garnish (1 1/4 oz; from a 6- to 8-oz piece)

Steps:

  • Put oven racks in middle and lower third of oven and preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large shallow baking pan with foil.
  • Roll out pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin into an 11-inch square (1/8 inch thick). Using a plate or pot lid as a guide, cut out a 10-inch round.
  • Carefully transfer round to an ungreased baking sheet by rolling pastry around rolling pin and then unrolling onto baking sheet. Chill round on baking sheet until ready to use.
  • Toss tomatoes with 2 tablespoons oil, 2 teaspoons thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl until well coated. Roast tomatoes, cut sides up and in 1 layer, in foil-lined baking pan in middle of oven, 1 hour.
  • Brush pastry round with 2 teaspoons oil, then sprinkle with 1 teaspoon thyme. After roasting tomatoes 1 hour, move tomatoes in pan to lower third of oven and put pastry on baking sheet on middle rack. Bake pastry and tomatoes until pastry is golden brown and edges of tomatoes are slightly browned but still appear juicy, about 15 minutes.
  • While pastry is still warm, scatter 1/2 cup cheese shavings evenly over it. Top shavings with warm tomatoes, cut sides down and in 1 layer, then sprinkle evenly with remaining 1/2 teaspoon thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, pepper to taste, and additional cheese shavings if desired.

Herbed Tomato Tart Recipe image

We used basil, dill, thyme, and parsley, but just about any combination of herbs that pair well with tomatoes--such as oregano and tarragon--would work.

TOMATO AND GOAT CHEESE TART



Tomato and Goat Cheese Tart image

The tomato tarts and quiches I've been eating in Provence are delightful. Spreading mustard on the crust before you top it with tomatoes is a new idea that makes perfect sense to me, as mustard is such a perfect condiment for tomatoes.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, appetizer

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 yeasted olive oil pastry (1/2 recipe)
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 pounds ripe tomatoes
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 to 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, marjoram, basil or a combination, or 2 to 3 teaspoons fresh thyme or chopped rosemary
2 eggs
4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Oil a 10-inch tart pan and line it with the pastry. Keep in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
  • Brush the mustard over the bottom of the dough. Slice the tomatoes and arrange over the mustard in concentric circles, overlapping them slightly. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and the herbs.
  • Beat together the eggs and goat cheese. Season with salt and pepper and pour over the tomatoes. Drizzle on the olive oil. Place in the oven and bake 30 to 40 minutes, until the top is nicely browned. Remove from the heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.

ROASTED TOMATO TART WITH RICOTTA AND PESTO



Roasted Tomato Tart With Ricotta and Pesto image

Save those wider-than-tall, about-to-burst tomatoes for slicing and showering with flaky sea salt. For this recipe, you want smaller, sturdier varieties like kumato, Campari or petite heirlooms. Brushing the uncooked puff pastry with crème fraîche adds a subtle tanginess that you won't necessarily notice, but the tomatoes will taste better for it. You might be tempted to skip salting your tomatoes, but don't: It helps prevent a soggy crust while intensifying the flavor of your tomatoes. This tart is best enjoyed straight out of the oven, at its flaky prime, but it's also great at room temperature, or even cold, devoured directly from the fridge.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 small, multicolored tomatoes, such as heirloom, kumato or Campari (about 12 ounces total), sliced crosswise 1/4-inch thick
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 sheet packaged puff pastry, thawed (about 7 ounces)
3 tablespoons crème fraîche or sour cream
1/4 small red onion, very thinly sliced
Aleppo pepper or red-pepper flakes, for garnish (optional)
3/4 cup fresh ricotta
Store-bought or homemade pesto, for drizzling
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Fresh basil leaves, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Line a large baking sheet with paper towels. Set the sliced tomatoes on top in a single layer. In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Use it to season the tomatoes evenly on both sides, cover with another paper towel and let sit, 15 minutes, allowing the salt to draw moisture out of the tomatoes.
  • As the tomatoes sit, heat the oven to 400 degrees and set a rack in the middle of the oven. Working on a large sheet of parchment paper, roll out the puff pastry into a 9-by-11-inch rectangle, trimming any uneven edges. Prick the inside with a fork every few inches, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Using a pastry brush, coat the center of the puff pastry with the crème fraîche, leaving the border unbrushed.
  • Working within the border, layer the tomatoes and red onion on top of the tart, allowing them to overlap slightly. Transfer to a sheet pan and bake, rotating halfway through, until puff pastry is browned and puffed, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Sprinkle tomatoes with Aleppo pepper, if using. Dollop with fresh ricotta. Thin pesto with olive oil until it reaches the proper consistency for drizzling; drizzle on top of tart to taste. Top with basil, if using, and serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Select ripe and flavorful tomatoes: Choose tomatoes that are firm and have a deep red color. Avoid tomatoes that are bruised or have blemishes.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs add a burst of flavor to the tart. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
  • Don't overcrowd the tart pan: Make sure to leave some space between the tomatoes so that they can roast evenly.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is a key ingredient in this tart, so make sure to use a good quality oil that has a fruity flavor.
  • Serve the tart warm or at room temperature: This tart is best served warm or at room temperature. If you are serving it cold, let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

This roasted tomato and herb tart is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky crust, juicy tomatoes, and flavorful herbs, this tart is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a new recipe to try, give this roasted tomato and herb tart a try. You won't be disappointed!
