Zubereitung von Mushroom Almond Tart
- **Make the Crust:** Whisk together flour and salt in a large bowl. Cut in the chilled butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in egg yolks and 2 tablespoons of ice water. Add more ice water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
- Gently knead the dough a few times until it forms a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour.
- **Assemble the Tart:** Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Butter an 8-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
- Roll out 2/3 of the dough to 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Carefully transfer to the tart pan, pressing it into the bottom and up the sides. Trim any excess dough.
- Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork and chill for 30 minutes.
- **Make the Filling:** Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add shallot and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook until softened and liquid has evaporated, about 4-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Let the mushroom mixture cool completely.
- In a bowl, whisk together heavy cream, egg, egg yolks, and nutmeg. Stir in the cooled mushroom mixture, parsley, and ground almonds. Season to taste.
- Pour the filling into the chilled tart shell.
- Roll out the remaining dough to 1/8-inch thickness and cut into 8 strips, approximately 8 inches long and 1/2 inch wide. Chill for 30 minutes.
- **Bake the Tart:** Place a baking sheet on the lower rack of the oven. Arrange 4 pastry strips parallel to each other across the top of the tart, pressing gently into the filling. Trim any excess and repeat with remaining strips to form a diamond pattern.
- Brush the pastry strips with egg wash. Sprinkle slivered almonds between the strips and brush with remaining egg wash.
- Bake for 10 minutes at 425°F (220°C). Reduce oven temperature to 400°F (200°C) and bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is set.
- Let cool for 12 minutes before carefully removing the tart from the pan. Serve warm or at room temperature.
