Strawberry Crostata With Walnuts Recipes

Steps:

• Mix the flour, sugar, and lemon peel, in a food processor. Next add the cubed butter, in increments. Pulse until the mixture resembles a coarse meal, then add the salt. Pulse in the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until moist clumps form. Gather the dough into a ball; flatten into a disk. Wrap the dough in plastic and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
• Position the rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Roll out the dough on a floured surface to an 11-inch round. Transfer the dough onto a heavy baking sheet that has been lined with a silicon pad or parchment paper. Stir the lemon juice into the preserves and spread the preserves on top of dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold the dough border over the filling to form an 8-inch round, pleating loosely and pinching to seal any cracks in the dough.
• Bake the crostata until the crust is golden, 35 to 40 minutes. Allow to cool. Sprinkle with the almonds and dust with the powdered sugar, if you wish. Slide a metal spatula under the crust to free the crostata from the baking sheet and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• To make the dough combine flour, butter, sugar and salt in a food processor and pulse until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. With the machine running, slowly add ice water just until dough forms. Cover and chill for 30 minutes.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough into an 11-inch round. Transfer the dough to a baking sheet.
• In a bowl combine cranberries, walnuts, sugar and dark brown sugar and toss together. Place cranberry mixture in the tart shell, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border around the outside edge. Raise the borders of dough to enclose the sides of the tart, draping it over the fruit. Gently press the edge of the folded dough onto the baking sheet, being careful not to mash the fruit. Pinch the pleats that form from the draping.
• Bake the tart for 15 to 18 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the berries are juicy. Cool the crostata on a rack for 10 minutes and dust with confectioner's sugar.
