  • Banana Custard Tart
    Banana Custard Tart British puddings and custard are synonymous with each other. The go hand in hand; treacle tart and custard, apple pie and custard. Even the French who recon they've invented everything ever cooked, every dish in the food chain, every recipe, begrudgingly acknowledge that custard is British - why can't they call it that though? Crème Anglaise! There is custard and a custard, the latter we take to be baked - like baked egg custard, cabinet pudding, diplomat pudding, crème caramel, bread and butter pudding, lemon curd tart and this week's banana custard tart recipe. One of my favourite desserts being banana custard. The simple perfection of custard made to the exact velocity so as to suspend perfectly, the sliced banana. Cut the banana too thin and it disintegrates, too thick and it sinks to the bottom. At home I'm not adverse to using Birds custard powder - although I'd be chucked out the chef's magic circle if I used it on the dessert menu at work. Doctor Bird invented the powder because his wife was allergic to eggs. Incidentally, Chinese restaurants use custard powder and sugar to dip meat in before deep frying for things like deep fried chilli beef. The corn flour element to custard powder gives the meat a chewy crisp coating. Serves 6 Ingredients For the pastry 1 egg 1 egg yolk 75g icing sugar 115g softened butter 300g plain flour For the banana mix 50g butter 4 or 5 bananas, diced 25ml dark rum 25g brown sugar For the custard 4 egg yolks 50g caster sugar 550ml whipping cream For the caramel sauce 115g caster sugar 50ml water 115ml double cream Method To make the pastry, mix the egg, egg yolk and icing sugar together.

  • Lemon Meringue Tart Is a Variation of Our Lemon Chess Tart, a Favorite We’Ve Been Making at the Café Since Day One
    INGREDIENTS: MACRINA BAKERY Makes one 10" tart LEMON TART 2-1/4 cups granulated sugar 2 tablespoons white cornmeal LEMON MERINGUE 1-1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 6 eggs TART 1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest 3/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice 1/4 cup whole milk 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted 1 pre-baked (10-inch) Flaky Pie Dough tart shell LAVENDER MERINGUE* 4 egg whites 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 teaspoon dried lavender, ground 3/4 cup powdered sugar, sifted DIRECTIONS: MAKING THE TART Prepare all of the ingredients and let them sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 325°F Sift sugar, cornmeal and flour into a large bowl. Crack the eggs into the sugar mixture one at a time, whisking between each addition. Continue whisking as you add the lemon zest, lemon juice, milk, and melted butter, making sure each ingredient is thoroughly incorporated before adding another. Make sure that your pre-baked tart shell is not cracked, then place it on a rimmed baking sheet. Pour the filling into the shell, until it reaches just below the top. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until the center is set and the surface is golden brown. Check the tart after the first 15 minutes of baking to make sure it is browning evenly. If one side of the tart is browning more quickly than the other, carefully rotate the baking sheet to even out the baking. Let the tart cool on a wire rack for at least 1 hour.

  • MACRINA BAKERY Make One Batch of Flaky Pie Dough
    DIRECTIONS: MACRINA BAKERY Make one batch of Flaky Pie Dough. Alternatively, ready-to- bake disks are available for purchase at your neighborhood Macrina. If you choose to make the Flaky Pie Dough recipe, divide the recipe in half to make two disks. Use one for this YOGURT HONEY FIG recipe and freeze the extra for later use. Keep the disk for this & RASPBERRY TART recipe refrigerated until you are ready to use it. On a floured work surface, roll out the Flaky Pie Dough disk so that its diameter is just under 14 inches and it’s approximately 1/8-inch thick. Fold the dough circle in half and lift it onto the 10-inch tart pan, gently pressing it down and around the sides. Roll the overhanging dough into the pan creating a folded edge about 1/2-inch above the pan. Press around the edge to get a uniform thickness for even baking. Chill for at least 30 minutes before baking. Preheat oven to 350°F. Fill the chilled tart shell with a parchment paper liner and pie weights (or dried beans). Bake on the center rack for 35 to 45 minutes. When it’s finished, the sides should be golden brown. Remove the parchment paper and pie weights and let cool. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, cream the eggs and honey together on medium speed for 3 to 5 minutes. Add the yogurt and vanilla and continue to mix for 1 minute. Sift the all-purpose flour onto a sheet of parchment paper.

  • Farmer's Market Strawberry Custard Tart
    By: FineMark’s Executive Chef, Lisa Fidler Farmer’s Market Strawberry Custard Tart Sweet Tart Shell Ingredients • 1 Cup All-purpose Flour • ½ teaspoon Kosher Salt • ½ Cup Cold Unsalted Butter, cut in 8 pieces • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Paste • ¼ Cup Confectioner's Sugar Directions • Place all dry ingredients in the bowl of a food processor and pulse to mix; add the butter to the flour mixture and pulse until the butter is the size of peas. Open the processor and drizzle the vanilla extract over the mixture. Pulse until the dough just comes together. • Gather into a ball, press into a disk, wrap and refrigerate until firm - at least 30 minutes. • Remove dough from the refrigerator and roll out on a lightly floured surface to fit the circumference of the tart pan - or alternatively, press the dough evenly into the pan by pulling chunks off the main disk, working quickly. • Freeze tart in the pan until hard, about one hour. • Meanwhile, preheat oven to 450°. • Remove the tart pan/crust from the freezer and dock (prick with a fork) all over, including the junction of the sides with the bottom, but be sure not to pierce the dough through to the pan. • Immediately place the frozen tart shell onto a sheet pan and into the preheated oven. Bake for exactly 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and, depending on the kind of filling you've chosen, let the tart shell cool slightly or completely before filling. www.finemarkbank.com By: FineMark’s Executive Chef, Lisa Fidler Farmer’s Market Strawberry Custard Tart (part 2) Vanilla Bean Pastry Cream Ingredients • 1/3 Cup Sugar • 1 Cup Half-n-Half • 5 Egg Yolks • 1 Tablespoon Vanilla Bean paste • 1 ½ Tablespoon Cornstarch • 1 Tablespoon Unsalted Butter • 1 Cup Milk Directions • In a medium saucepan, heat the milk, heavy cream and vanilla to a boil over medium heat.
