- Place a 9-inch cake ring on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment.
- Roll out the dough between sheets of parchment to an 11-inch circle (1/8 inch thick).
- Refrigerate 15 minutes.
- Peel off the parchment; press the dough into the ring.
- Trim flush with the top edge of the ring.
- Refrigerate until cold, about 30 minutes.

- Let cool completely, stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, put the whites and cream of tartar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment.
- Add a pinch of salt.
- Beat on low speed until foamy.
- With the mixer running, gradually add the remaining 1/4 cup sugar.
- On medium-high speed, beat until stiff, glossy peaks form.
- Gently fold the pastry cream and 1 cup berries into the meringue.
- Pour the mixture into the tart shell, making swirls and peaks.
- Bake until golden, 40 to 45 minutes.
- Let cool on a wire rack.
