Rustic Ramp Tart
- 1/3 flaky butter crust recipe (see note)
- 3 large ramps
- 1 egg yolk
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 cup pecorino cheese
- NOTE: I am not a great baker and therefore have not come up with my own tart crust. My go-to favorite is from Emeril's Quiche Lorraine recipe: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/emeril-lagasse/quiche-lorraine-recipe/index.html. It always comes out perfectly flaky, buttery and delicious.
- Preheat the oven to 375.
- Roll out the tart dough until it is about 1/4" thick and in some semblance of a circle. Work around the outside of the dough and roll in about 1/2" of the edge and press down to create a bit of a bowl. Place onto a baking sheet.
- Finely mince the white parts of the ramps and throw them into a small bowl with the egg yolk, cream, and a bit of salt and pepper. Mix together well.
- Tear up the green leaves of the ramps and place them into the prepared dough, then pour the egg yolk mixture over top.
- Sprinkle with the pecorino cheese and bake 20-25 minutes or until the crust is crispy and the cheese is melted. Let rest a few minutes, then cut and serve.
