Grape Tart (Using Kyoho Grapes or Large Table Grapes)
- 1 Basic Tart Crust (Pate Sucree)
- 2 Egg yolks
- 100 ml Milk
- 30 grams Sugar
- 8 grams Cornstarch
- 60 ml Heavy cream
- 1 dash Vanilla essence
- 140 ml A. Heavy cream
- 50 grams A. Cream cheese
- 12 grams A. Sugar
- 1 bunch Grapes (Kyoho variety, large table grapes)
- Make the pastry (seeand rest it in the refrigerator.
- Slice the pastry into 10 pieces.
- Roll each piece of pastry into a circle.
- I used a muffin tin with 5.5cm diameter bottoms this time.
- Line each muffin tin cup with the pastry, making the sides about 2cm high.
- Pierce the bottoms, and refrigerate the pastry (30 minutes or so).
- Make the filling.
- Please refer to the "Egg Tart" recipe.
- The ingredient amounts for the egg tart are different from the ones for these tarts, but the method is the same.
- Cut the grapes into half, peel and drain off any excess moisture.
- (Half the grapes will be added to the filling, and the other half will be used as decoration.)
- These are the Kyoho grapes I used.
- One bunch was just enough this time, but keep in mind that each bunch has a different number of grapes.
- Add the filling from Step 4 inside the pastry lined muffin cups in Step 3, and top with 3 grape halves each.
- Bake in a preheated 180C oven for about 25 minutes.
- After the tarts have cooled a bit, take them out of the tin and cool on a rack.
- Make the cream for the topping.
- Mix the A. cream cheese until soft.
- Add the sugar to the heavy cream and whip it.
- Combine the whipped cream and cream cheese.
- Mound the cream on top of the cooled tarts.
- Add the rest of the grape halves to finish.
- Chill well before serving.
- Here's how it looks cut in half.
- The tarts are best eaten after they've been chilling for more than half a day.
- I recommend waiting more than a day, when the filling and the crust have melded together.
