Marbleized Lemon Tart with Sage

  1. Make the crust: Pulse flour, cornmeal, sugar, sage, salt, and zest in a food processor until combined.
  2. Add butter; pulse just until mixture resembles coarse meal.
  3. Whisk together egg yolks and ice water in a small bowl.
  4. Drizzle egg mixture evenly over flour mixture, and pulse just until dough holds together.
  5. Divide dough in half, and shape each portion into a disk.
  6. Wrap in plastic, and refrigerate 1 hour or up to 2 days.
  7. On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1 disk of dough to an 11-inch round.
  8. Gently press into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom; trim excess dough flush with rim.
  9. Refrigerate or freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
  10. Reserve remaining dough for another use (it can be frozen up to 3 months; thaw in refrigerator before using).
  11. Preheat oven to 375F.
  12. Pierce bottom of shell all over with a fork.
  13. Bake until golden brown, about 25 minutes.
  14. Let cool.
  15. Make the filling: In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over the water, and let stand until softened, about 5 minutes.
  16. Prepare an ice-water bath.
  17. Whisk together egg yolks, sugar, and salt in a large heatproof bowl.
  18. Gradually whisk in lemon juice.
  19. Place bowl over (not in) a pan of simmering water, and whisk constantly until mixture has thickened.
  20. Whisk in softened gelatin.
  21. Remove from heat, and whisk in butter, a few pieces at a time, until smooth.
  22. Let cool, stirring occasionally.
  23. Place bowl with yolk mixture over ice bath, and stir until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
  24. Pour curd into crust; smooth top.
  25. Dollop small spoonfuls of creme fraiche all over top.
  26. Using a wooden skewer or the tip of a knife, swirl creme fraiche into curd to create a marbleized pattern.
  27. Refrigerate until set, 2 hours, or, wrapped in plastic, up to 1 day.
