ZUCCHINI TART WITH GRUYERE CHEESE AND HERBS
This tart is wonderful picnic, potluck or party food--it's great served warm, cold or at room temperature! Simple and very tasty, I often make this tart when fresh zucchini are in season. For ease of preparation, I've used a crescent roll crust, but you may use a regular shortcrust pastry if you wish. You will need a 9 or 10-inch tart tin with a removable bottom. P.S. If you don't have a tart or quiche pan, just use a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400F degrees.
- TO MAKE CRUST:.
- Unfold crescent dough from the tube and press dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of tart pan to form a crust, pressing gently to seal any perforations; spread crust with pesto. (NOTE: If you will be using a shortcrust pastry recipe instead of the crescent roll dough, you will need to blind-bake it before adding the filling).
- TO MAKE FILLING:.
- In a large skillet, saute the zucchini, onion, and garlic in the olive oil until softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in the parsley and the herbes de Provence, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let cool slightly before stirring in the beaten eggs and cheese.
- With a slotted spoon, transfer the filling into the prepared tart shell and spread evenly; sprinkle the top with a little extra grated cheese. I transfer the tart to a baking sheet to catch any overflow. Bake at 400 F until set and crust is golden, about 16 to 19 minutes.
- Remove to a wire rack and let cool slightly, about 10 minutes, before removing sides of pan.
- TIP: For ease of removal, place the tart on a large can, then carefully pull the sides of the pan down around it (you may need to run a knife around sides of crust to loosen).
- Slide tart off the bottom portion of the pan onto a rimless serving dish or cutting board (or leave it on the base to serve). Let rest 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
- Good served warm, cold or at room temperature.
MUSHROOM-GRUYERE TART
The whole-wheat and olive oil crust for this savory tart is based on a recipe for crackers. The real surprise here is the addition of tahini in the crust; it makes the whole tart taste more complex. This recipe appears in our cookbook, "A New Way to Bake" (Clarkson Potter).

Steps:
- Crust: Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together both flours and salt. Stir in tahini, oil, and 3 tablespoons water. Knead in bowl until a ball forms; add up to 1 tablespoon more water, if needed. Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface. Roll dough into a 12-inch round and fit it into a 9 1/2-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Trim flush with rim. Prick bottom of dough all over with a fork. Bake, rotating pan halfway through, until crust is golden brown and crisp, about 35 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack.
- Filling: Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium. Add shallot, garlic, and red-pepper flakes; cook, stirring, until shallot is softened, about 4 minutes. Add mushrooms and salt. Cook until mushrooms are tender and golden brown in spots, 6 to 8 minutes. Let cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, combine cheese, eggs, parsley, and mushroom mixture. Pour filling into crust. Bake tart, rotating pan halfway through, until just set, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack and let tart cool slightly, about 10 minutes. Top with parsley, and serve warm or at room temperature with more red-pepper flakes. (Tart can be refrigerated, covered, overnight; bring to room temperature or reheat before serving.)
