Strawberry Lime Tart
- 13 cup lime juice
- 1/4 cup butter, unsalted
- 13 cup sugar
- 4 each egg yolks
- 2 pints strawberries
- PREPARE AND REFRIGERATE tart shell.
- For the lime curdL
- Combine the lime juice, butter and sugar in a heavy, non-reactive pan.
- Place over low heat and bring to a boil over low heat.
- Meanwhile, whisk the yolks in a bowl until liquid.
- When the lime mixture boils, whisk half of it into the yolks.
- Return the remaining lime mixture to a boil and whisk in the yolk mixture.
- Whisk constantly until the mixture thickens and begins to simmer around the edge of the pan, about 2 minutes.
- Pour the lime curd into a non-reactive bowl, press plastic wrap against the surface and refrigerate up to 1 week.
- Pierce the dough with a fork at 1-inch intervals.
- Cut a 14-inch disk of parchment or wax paper and line the dough with it, making sure it fits flat against the side of the tart shell.
- Fill with dried beans or pie weights and bake about 20 minutes, until the dough appears dull and dry when a corner of the paper is lifted.
- Remove the tart shell from the oven, remove the paper containing the weights, and return the shell to the oven for 5 to 10 minutes longer, until it is lightly colored.
- Do not overbake or the shell will be dry and tough.
- Cool on a rack.
- To assemble the tart:
- Spread the lime curd evenly in the tart shell.
- Arrange the strawberry slices, overlapping, in concentric or straight rows on the lime curd.
- Sprinkle with white sugar just before serving.
