Easy Tomato And Smoked Feta Tart Recipe

• 1 teaspoon liquid smoke
• 5 ounces block feta cheese, with 1 cup of its brine (see note)
• 1 1/2 pounds ripe beefsteak tomatoes (about 2 large), cut into slices
• 1/2 pound cherry tomatoes, split in half
• Kosher salt
• 1/2 recipe
• 2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for finishing
• 1 tablespoon minced fresh oregano, marjoram, and/or thyme leaves
• 2 tablespoons minced fresh delicate herbs, such as parsley, mint, basil, tarragon, and/or chives

1. Adjust an oven rack to the center position and preheat oven to 400u0b0F. Add liquid smoke to feta brine, cutting or crumbling the cheese to make sure it is submerged. Set feta and brine aside.
2. Place beefsteak tomato slices and halved cherry tomatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with two layers of paper towels or a clean kitchen towel. Season with salt. Flip tomatoes and season second side. Set aside for 15 minutes, then blot excess liquid with more paper towels.
3. Carefully roll out cold pie dough into a circle that overlaps a 10-inch fluted tart pan. Use your rolling pin to carefully transfer dough to pan. Push it into corners with your fingertips and trim off excess with a butter knife. Transfer to freezer for 5 minutes.
4. Remove tart crust from freezer. Using the back of a spoon, spread mustard evenly over bottom surface. Layer tomatoes into tart crust, fitting them as tightly together as possible. Drain smoky feta cheese and crumble over the top. Season with black pepper. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil and sprinkle with oregano, marjoram, and/or thyme leaves.
5. Transfer tart to oven and bake until bottom is well browned and crisp and top is sizzling, with tomatoes and cheese lightly browned and most of the liquid evaporated, about 1 hour. Remove from oven and let cool to room temperature. Sprinkle with remaining herbs, drizzle with a little more olive oil, and serve.
