What is it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A tart is a pastry made with a tender, shallow crust. For this tart, you'll bake the crust first, and then fill it with an almond-scented cream topped with fresh strawberries and sliced almonds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What's in it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The highlight of this tart is, of course, fresh strawberries which are coated in a glossy glaze made from red currant jelly and almond extract. The filling is a cinch to make, and all you need to do is whip mascarpone cheese, cream cheese and honey together - it has a richness and delicate tartness that provides balance for fresh, vibrant berries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lastly, the crust is made with butter and three types of flour, which gives the tart shell a delicate, tender texture and loads of flavor. It's this blend of all-purpose, whole wheat pastry, and superfine almond flours that complement the fresh flavor of the berries and the almond extract that infuses the tart's filling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tips for making fruit tarts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Putting together the crust is the most complicated part of making a strawberry tart. A food processor helps the tart shell come together, and you'll need to pay attention to temperature (cold is better), but once you have the tart shell finished assembling the tart is a breeze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
