How to Make Crustless Florentine Tart

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cook 10 oz (280g) frozen spinach according to package directions. Alternatively, wash and thoroughly dry 10 oz (280g) fresh spinach, remove stems, and wilt in a pan with 1 tablespoon of water over medium heat until tender.
  3. Once cooked, thoroughly cool the spinach and squeeze out as much excess water as possible using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the squeezed spinach with 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup (50g) grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg or mace, 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt, and 1 cup (225g) ricotta cheese. Mix well to combine.
  5. Lightly grease a 10-inch pie pan with olive oil (about 1 teaspoon).
  6. Spread the spinach mixture evenly into the prepared pie pan.
  7. Sprinkle 1/4 cup (30g) pine nuts evenly over the top.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tart is set and lightly golden brown.
  9. Let the tart cool completely on a wire rack before refrigerating for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
  10. Remove from the refrigerator about 1 hour before serving to allow it to come to room temperature.
