- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into pieces, chilled
- 4 to 6 tablespoons ice water
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 3/4 cup fresh or frozen corn kernels
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 3 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 recipe Smoked Chile Collard Greens (page 174), drained on paper towels and cooled
- 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 4 (6- to 7-ounce) lamb porterhouse chops
- Parsley Oil (page 239; optional), for garnish
- To make the tart, combine the flour and salt in a food processor and pulse a few times to combine.
- Scatter the butter over the top of the flour and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal, 6 to 8 pulses.
- With the machine running, add 4 tablespoons ice water in a slow, steady stream through the feed tube.
- Pulse until the dough holds together without being wet or sticky.
- To test, squeeze a small amount together: If it holds together, it is ready.
- If it is crumbly, add up to 2 tablespoons more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time.
- Form the dough into a flat disk, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until cold, at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
- Roll out the dough to a 12-inch round on a floured surface.
- Transfer to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
- Trim the dough overhang to 1 inch.
- Fold the overhang in and press, forming a doublethick high-standing side.
- Pierce the crust all over with a fork.
- Freeze the crust for 30 minutes and up to 1 month.
- Position a rack in center of oven and preheat the oven to 400F.
- Bake the crust on a baking sheet, piercing with a fork if the crust bubbles in places, until light golden brown, about 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, keeping the crust on the baking sheet, and let cool slightly.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 350F.
- Heat the oil in a medium saute pan over high heat.
- Add the corn, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the corn is light golden brown and tender, about 5 minutes.
- Let cool slightly.
- Whisk together the eggs and cream cheese in a medium bowl until smooth.
- Whisk in the cream, corn, and collard greens and season with salt and pepper.
- Pour into the prepared tart shell and bake until the sides of the filling are slightly puffed and the center still jiggles slightly, about 40 minutes.
- Remove the tart from the oven and let cool at room temperature for at least 15 minutes before serving.
- The tart can be served hot or at room temperature.
- To make the barbecue sauce for the lamb chops, whisk together the mustard, ketchup, molasses, honey, maple syrup, and vinegar in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper.
- Cover and let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes or refrigerate for up to 2 days.
- Bring to room temperature before serving.
- Preheat the grill to high or heat a grill pan over high heat.
- Pour half of the barbecue sauce into a serving bowl and set aside.
- Season the lamb on both sides with salt and pepper and brush liberally with some of the rest of the sauce.
- Place the chops on the grill and cook until golden brown and slightly charred, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Brush with more of the sauce, turn the chops over, and continue grilling to medium, 2 to 3 minutes more, brushing the top with more of the sauce.
- Remove the chops from the grill, brush with some of the reserved sauce, and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Serve 1 chop per person with a slice of corn and collard green tart and the reserved sauce on the side.
- Garnish with parsley oil if desired.
