Apricot & pistachio tart
I also think it would be fun to live in Greece and go to lunch with friends in Paris. And that’s the origin of this recipe. My friend Sandy, (who lives in Greece and goes to lunch with friends in Paris) sent me this “non-recipe” for a dessert she had. She described it thus…
…dessert one of those fabulous french tarts (er tartes) – tart dough, then a pate of crushed or somehow pated pastichios – may have had another ingredient in pate, i don’t know. maybe a bit of a liquer or rose water or something. (it was from a pastry shop so i couldn’t ask). and on top apricots. in a sense it was like a tarte with pistachio pate instead of custard under the fruit, but the apricot was not raw – it was baked.
Well! With my obsession with frangipane, and making frangipane out of hazelnuts or other non-almond nuts(which makes it no longer frangipane!) OF COURSE I had to try this!! I made a simple paté sucrée crust, with a hint of cardamom. I made a pistachio frangipane (an imaginary beast!), and then I just sliced very ripe apricots, and sprinkled them with sugar because they’re quite tart! I liked the resulting tart very much indeed, but I have to admit that my boys wouldn’t try it because they don’t like apricots. And the apricots were tart. It was a tart tart. This appealed to me very much! I think it would be nice with some lightly whipped, lightly sweetened whipped cream. The tart won’t last for days in pristine form, because the fruit softens the crust. So eat up!!

CRUST
1 3/4 cups flour
1/3 cup sugar
healthy pinch salt
1/4 t cardamom
6 T cold butter – cut into tiny cubes
1 egg
Mix the flour, salt and cardamom. Cut in the butter. Work it in with your fingers till you have a crumby consistency. Stir in the egg. Knead for a few minutes to the butter and egg are well integrated. Wrap and chill, baby, chill.
THE PISTACHIO FILLING
1 cup pistachios – ground as finely as you can
4 T flour
pinch salt
6 T softened butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 t vanilla
2 eggs
Cream the butter and sugar together. Add the vanilla and eggs and beat till nice and frothy.
Grind the pistachios with the flour. Add the salt. Mix these with the eggs and butter. Beat very well, till everything is combined and seems quite smooth.
Preheat the oven to 375.
Roll/press the dough into a buttered/floured tart pan. You probably won’t be able to roll it out the whole way, because it’s so soft and buttery. (I couldn’t!) So you’ll roll it into a flat, thick disc, and then put it in your tart pan and use your palm and fingers to press it out and build a nice crust up the sides of the tart pan.
Bake this for about five minutes – just till it stops being shiny.
Spread the pistachio mixture in the baked tart crust.
3 APRICOTS
Don’t peel the apricots, but cut them in half lengthwise and remove the pits. Then place them cut side down, and slice them into 1/4 ish inch slices, in an arc. Transfer them, holding the slices together, and set them on the pistachio cream. Fan them out into a pretty pattern. Repeat with each apricot. Sprinkle 2 T of sugar on the apricot slices.
Bake for about 20 minutes, till the pistachio cream is puffed and brown.
Let this cool before you try to cut it.
Out of the Ordinary 
I blog often and I truly appreciate your content.
This great article has really peaked my interest.
I am going to take a note of your blog and keep checking for
new details about once a week. I subscribed to your RSS feed as well.
Do they possess that ideal lawn that you wish you had on your property.
The Birmingham Lawn Care must also give you insight to get rid of the
moss in the lawn and then the lawn will really look good in its newly fed soft soil and the green grass that are going to cover the soil of your lawn to bring in the velvety feel underneath your feet.
So, alternative choices for aerating your lawn are to rent
a machine from your local home and garden center or
simply hire someone to do it for you.
I do not know whether it’s just me or if perhaps everybody else encountering problems with your website.
It looks like some of the written text on your
posts are running off the screen. Can someone else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening
to them too? This may be a problem with my internet browser because I’ve had this happen before.
Many thanks
