here's a recipe for Faroe Islands Rabarbur Tart:
Ingredients:
For the pastry crust:
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg yolk
- 2-3 tablespoons cold water
For the rhubarb filling:
- 4 cups rhubarb, chopped into 1-inch pieces
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust according to tartness of rhubarb)
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the topping:
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon rolled oats (optional)
Instructions:
1- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and granulated sugar. Add the cold, cubed butter and rub it into the flour mixture using your fingertips until it resembles breadcrumbs.
3- Add the egg yolk and cold water to the mixture. Use a fork or your hands to bring the dough together. If it's too dry, add a little more cold water, one tablespoon at a time. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
4- Form the dough into a ball, flatten it into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
5- While the dough is chilling, prepare the rhubarb filling. In a medium mixing bowl, toss the chopped rhubarb with granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest, and vanilla extract until the rhubarb is well coated. Set aside.
6- Once the dough has chilled, roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a circle large enough to fit your tart pan. Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough to the tart pan, pressing it gently into the bottom and sides. Trim any excess dough hanging over the edges.
7- Spread the prepared rhubarb filling evenly over the pastry crust.
8- For the topping, sprinkle the granulated sugar and rolled oats (if using) over the rhubarb filling.
9- Place the tart in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the rhubarb filling is bubbly.
10- Remove the tart from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Enjoy your Faroe Islands Rabarbur Tart, a delightful treat bursting with the flavors of locally grown rhubarb!
