This delicious dessert is a large version of the individual tartlets served at Racines. The thin, crisp pastry shell is filled with a layer of almond cream made from both finely ground and coarsely chopped nuts that give the tart layers of texture.
Ingredient:
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 5 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 large egg yolk
- 2 to 3 tablespoons ice water
- Apple Tart
- 1 cup (about 4 ounces) slivered almonds
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus 1 tablespoon melted butter, for brushing
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon dark rum
- 3 large Golden Delicious apples—peeled, halved, cored and sliced 1/8 inch thick
