How to Make Strawberry Tart Cuor Di Fragola

  1. Preheat oven to 340°F (170°C). Grease a 9-10 inch (25cm) heart-shaped tart pan with butter and sprinkle generously with sesame seeds.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, water, and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the lemon zest and sesame oil; mix well.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, gently folding until just combined.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared tart pan and bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  7. Let the crust cool in the pan for 15 minutes before carefully removing it and placing it on a serving plate.
  8. While the crust bakes, prepare the strawberry filling: Clean and halve the strawberries.
  9. In a small saucepan, gently simmer the milk with the ginger slices for about 5 minutes.
  10. Remove from heat and let steep for 5 minutes. Remove the ginger slices.
  11. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, cornstarch, agar-agar powder, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  12. Slowly whisk the ginger-infused milk into the egg mixture.
  13. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the custard thickens (about 5-7 minutes).
  14. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  15. Spread the cooled custard evenly over the tart crust.
  16. Arrange the halved strawberries attractively on top of the custard.
  17. Prepare the jelly according to package instructions, or gently heat homemade jelly until melted and smooth.
