RHUBARB CUSTARD TART



Rhubarb Custard Tart image

The secret to the success of this stunning rhubarb tart is blind-baking the crust. Pop it in the oven before making the filling, so it gets firm and crunchy, and you'll prevent a soggy bottom as the creamy custard and tart rhubarb stalks get baked in.

Time 2h25m

Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt (we use Diamond Crystal)
10 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
4 to 5 tablespoons ice-cold water
1 pound rhubarb, halved lengthwise into 3/4-inch stalks if thick
1 1/4 cups sugar
1/3 cup unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (we use Diamond Crystal)
2 large eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon pure vanilla paste or extract

Steps:

  • Dough: Pulse flour, sugar, and salt in a food processor until combined. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal, with some pea-size pieces remaining. Drizzle 4 tablespoons ice water over mixture; pulse several times to combine. Add more water as needed, pulsing until mixture holds together when pinched. Shape dough into a rectangle and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 1 day, or freeze up to 3 months; thaw completely in refrigerator before using.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 12-by-15-inch rectangle, about 1/8 inch thick. Transfer to a 9-by-12 1/2-inch rimmed baking sheet or a fluted tart pan with a removable bottom, fitting dough into corners and folding over extra to create a double-layered edge. Refrigerate 15 minutes.
  • Line dough with parchment and fill to top with dry rice or beans, or pie weights. Bake until edges are golden and bottom is beginning to dry out, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove parchment and pie weights; continue baking until golden brown on bottom, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes.
  • Filling: Meanwhile, cut rhubarb into 11-inch lengths (if some are shorter, that's okay). Using a sharp knife, score rhubarb along rounded sides on a diagonal at 2-inch intervals (this helps heat penetrate and break up the fibers, so the tart is easier to slice once cooked).
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup sugar, flour, salt, eggs, cream, and vanilla; pour mixture into cooled crust. Arrange rhubarb lengthwise over top, scored-sides up; sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup sugar. Bake until tart is puffed, golden, and just set in center, 45 to 55 minutes.
  • Let cool on a wire rack at least 1 hour before serving. To serve, run a spatula under tart to release from sheet, then slide onto a cutting board. Cut into squares; serve at room temperature or chilled. Tart is best eaten the day it's made, but can be refrigerated, covered, up to 1 day.

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

Custard
2 (13.5-oz.) cans unsweetened full-fat coconut milk
5 large egg yolks
3/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. sugar
1/3 cup cornstarch or 1/2 cup tapioca starch (if keeping Passover, use tapioca starch)
3/4 tsp. kosher salt
3 Tbsp. virgin coconut oil, room temperature
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
Crust
2 2/3 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
2 large egg whites
3 Tbsp. virgin coconut oil, room temperature
2 Tbsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. kosher salt
Rhubarb Syrup and Assembly
2 1/4 tsp. kosher gelatin
1/2 cup strawberry jelly
1 lb. rhubarb, cut into 1/3" pieces
1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
Special Equipment
A 10" tart pan with removable bottom

Steps:

  • Custard
  • Bring coconut milk to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Whisk egg yolks, sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a medium bowl to combine. Whisking constantly, gradually add 1 cup warmed coconut milk to egg yolk mixture. Whisking constantly, add egg mixture to milk mixture in saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, 7 minutes (mixture should start bubbling halfway through and thicken to a pudding consistency, but be sure to cook the full 7 minutes).
  • Strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl. Immediately whisk in coconut oil and vanilla. Cover bowl with plastic, pressing on surface of custard. Chill until set, at least 2 hours.
  • Do Ahead: Custard can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.
  • Crust
  • Preheat oven to 325°. Toast coconut on a rimmed baking sheet, tossing once, until golden, 7-10 minutes. Let cool.
  • Lightly coat tart pan with nonstick spray. Mix toasted coconut, egg whites, oil, sugar, and salt with a rubber spatula in a large bowl until combined and the consistency of a stiff paste.
  • Transfer coconut mixture to tart pan. Using your hands, press mixture evenly onto bottom and up sides of pan. Bake crust until edges are lightly brown and bottom is set and just barely golden, about 10 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack and let crust cool.
  • Do Ahead: Crust can be baked 1 day ahead. Wrap with plastic and store at room temperature.
  • Rhubarb Syrup and Assembly
  • Sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup water in a small bowl. Let sit 10 minutes.
  • Combine jelly and 1 cup water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Add bloomed gelatin and mix to combine. Add rhubarb, reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until rhubarb is lighter pink in color and slightly softened, 2-4 minutes depending on thickness of stalks. Mix in lemon juice. Turn off heat and let rhubarb come to room temperature in syrup (about 1 hour). Strain cooled rhubarb through a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl; reserve syrup.
  • Whisk chilled custard until creamy. Spoon custard into tart shell; smooth with an offset spatula.
  • Scatter rhubarb in an even layer over custard. Pour 1/4 cup rhubarb syrup over fruit, tilting pan to evenly distribute. Chill 20 minutes, then repeat with 1/4 cup rhubarb syrup. Chill tart at least 3 hours and up to overnight before serving.
