Floral Weave for Shortcrust Pastry: How to Make an Original and Beautiful Tart

Ingredients:
For the Shortcrust Pastry:
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup ice water (as needed)
For the Filling (customizable based on preference):
- Fresh fruits (berries, sliced peaches, or other favorites)
- Jam or preserves for glazing
Cooking Steps:
Step 1: In a food processor, combine flour, cold butter, sugar, and salt. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 2: Slowly add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, pulsing until the dough just comes together.
Step 3: Turn the dough onto a floured surface, knead briefly, and form it into a disc. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Step 4: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 5: Roll out the chilled shortcrust pastry on a floured surface to fit your tart pan. Gently press the pastry into the pan, ensuring an even layer along the base and sides. Trim any excess.
Step 6: Prepare your desired fruit filling and arrange it evenly over the pastry.
Step 7: Using the excess pastry, cut strips to create a floral weave. Lay the strips over the filling, creating a lattice pattern.
Step 8: Trim the edges and press them into the sides of the tart to seal.
Step 9: Optional: Brush the lattice with jam or preserves for a glossy finish.
Step 10: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly.
Step 11: Allow the tart to cool before slicing and serving. Admire and enjoy the beauty and taste of your Floral Weave Shortcrust Pastry Tart.
Perfect for special occasions or when you want to impress with both taste and presentation, this tart is a delightful culinary masterpiece.
