Cranberry Curd Tart
Table of Contents
When I first saw NYT Food's Instagram post featuring a cranberry curd tart I knew I needed to make it if only because of how gorgeous it was. But each time I made it I couldn't figure out how to photograph it so that the picture would do it justice. Which meant I just kept making it over and over again. Awful, I know. Then this last time I got a pomegranate in my Boston Organics delivery and decided to try sprinkling some on top of the tart for some contrast, and it finally looked as good as it tasted! They also give the tart a little crunch and freshness to cut all the richness.
For the crust, instead of the using the hazelnut crust in the original recipe, I used Smitten Kitchen's "great unshrinkable sweet tart shell" because hazelnuts are expensive and it's pretty much a no-fail recipe. To save time and effort, I usually end up just pressing the dough into the tart pan right after making it (starting with the edges), docking it, and then freezing it for 30 minutes before blind baking it with the buttered aluminum foil on top. Feel free to use whatever tart crust you prefer, though, as long as it's blind baked beforehand. I can see Thomas Keller's pine crust tart crust being amazing for this recipe.
