Steps:
- Crust: Lightly beat yolk and 2 tablespoons ice water in a small bowl until combined.
- Pulse flour, sugar, and salt in a food processor to combine. Add butter and process until mixture resembles coarse meal, about 15 seconds. With machine running, add yolk mixture in a slow, steady stream. Pulse until mixture holds together; if dough is still too dry, add additional ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Shape dough into a disk and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate until firm, at least 30 minutes and up to overnight.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees with racks in middle and bottom. Coat bottom and sides of a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray. Let dough stand until pliable. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough slightly thicker than 1/8 inch. Cut out an 11-inch round. Fit into bottom and up sides of prepared pan. Freeze 15 minutes.
- Filling: Stir together rhubarb, strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, salt, and lemon juice in a large bowl. Pour into tart shell. Bake, with a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet on bottom rack to catch juices, until bubbling in center, about 1 hour, 15 minutes. (If browning too quickly, tent with foil during last 15 minutes.) Remove from oven. Release sides of pan immediately. Let tart cool on pan base on a wire rack before cutting into wedges and serving warm or room temperature.

Steps:
- Whisk together 1 cup flour, 1 tablespoon sugar, and salt. Blend in butter with your fingertips or a pastry blender until most of mixture resembles coarse meal with remainder in small (roughly pea-size) lumps. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons water and stir with a fork until incorporated.
- Gently squeeze a small handful: It should hold together without crumbling apart. If it doesn't, blend in remaining 1/2 tablespoon water.
- Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and smear 3 times in a forward motion to help distribute fat. Gather dough and form it, rotating on work surface, into a disk. Chill dough, wrapped in plastic wrap, until firm, at least 1 hour.
- Roll out dough between sheets of wax paper, 2 overlapping sheets each for top and bottom, into a 12-inch round and chill until firm, about 15 minutes.
- Pulse almonds with 2 tablespoons sugar and remaining 2 tablespoons flour in a food processor until finely ground (be careful not to grind to a paste).
- Cut rhubarb crosswise, holding knife at a 45-degree angle, into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Remove top sheets of wax paper and invert dough onto a large baking sheet, then remove remaining wax paper (now on top). Fold edge of crust in to form a 1/2-inch border, pressing to seal to bottom crust. Spread ground almonds over crust (except border). Top with rhubarb, overlapping slices and arranging them decoratively . Score edge of crust decoratively, then chill tart 15 minutes.
- Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup sugar evenly over rhubarb and bake in lower third of oven until crust is golden brown on edges and rhubarb is tender, 35 to 45 minutes.
- Cool tart on baking sheet on a rack, then brush rhubarb with enough preserves to coat evenly.

RHUBARB TART
The rhubarb flavor in this tart balances nicely with the honey and amaretto. The mascarpone cheese makes it rich and creamy. Sometimes I'll even double the rhubarb for really sumptuous tarts. -Ellen Riley, Murfreesboro, Tennessee

RHUBARB-FLAN TARTS
This is a riff on Jean-Georges's grandmother's rhubarb tart. It's not her recipe for the pastry or the streusel, but the notion of macerating the rhubarb before baking and adding the flan came from her. Mustard may not be a traditional ingredient for desserts, but it adds a definite edge to the jam and it's my nod to Alsace, from where Jean-Georges hails. You'll have leftover jam. Try pairing it with cheese or with a sizzling steak.

Steps:
- Tie the cinnamon, clove, mace, and mustard seeds in a few layers of cheesecloth. Put the spice sachet in a saucepan with the wine and vinegar and bring to a boil over medium heat. Add the rhubarb, bring to a simmer, and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
- Drain to get rid of the excess liquid. Remove the spice sachet and puree the rhubarb in a food processor.
- Set up an ice bath in a large bowl.
- Bring the rhubarb back to a simmer. Mix the sugar and xanthan gum and whisk in, a few grains at a time (you don't want the xanthan gum to clump). Scrape out into a medium bowl and set into the ice bath, stirring often to chill down quickly. Once cool, refrigerate until ready to serve or for up to 1 week.
- Peel the rhubarb and cut into tiny dice. Toss it with the sugar and macerate for at least 2 hours.
- Set up an ice bath in a large bowl.
- Put the cream and vanilla seeds (rinse, dry, and save the pod for another use) in a small saucepan and heat to just below a simmer.
- Whisk the sugar and cornstarch together.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg until smooth; gradually whisk in the dry ingredients, beating until smooth.
- Slowly add half the warm cream to the egg mixture and whisk for about 1 minute to temper it. Off of the heat, scrape the egg mixture into the pan and mix well with an immersion blender. Strain into a small bowl and set into the ice bath to chill down quickly, stirring often. Refrigerate until ready to use or for up to 1 day.
- Roll half the dough 1/16 inch thick on a lightly floured work surface. Transfer to a Silpat- or parchment-lined baking sheet and chill for 30 minutes. Cut out eight 2 1/4 x 4-inch rectangles and line eight 3/4 x 3 1/4-inch tart molds with the dough (or cut 3 1/2-inch circles and line 2 1/4-inch tart rings). Place them on the baking sheet and chill for 30 minutes.
- Heat the oven to 375°F or 350°F on convection.
- Strain the rhubarb filling and fill the tart shells to overflowing. Bake until the rhubarb is starting to brown, about 20 minutes.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (300°F if you're using convection).
- Pour some of the flan into each tart and top each with a generous amount of the graham streusel. Bake until the streusel is browned and the filling is bubbling, about 20 minutes.
- Let cool for at least a few minutes before unmolding. You can serve the tarts warm or at room temperature.
- Spoon some mustard-rhubarb jam onto dessert plates and spread it with the back of a spoon. Dust the tarts with confectioners' sugar, set them on the jam, and serve.
- Try making this as a single large tart in a 9-inch tart pan. You could doctor some good all-fruit jam from the grocery store with crushed mustard seeds instead of making the jam.
