Best Strawberry Tart Recipe

How to Make the Best Strawberry Tart Recipe.

We made our basic tart dough, then we rolled it out and blind baked it into a tart shell. Also we have some vanilla custard/pastry cream made up so the last thing we have to do is slice some strawberries and assemble this lovely dessert.

Line up all your ingredients. The first thing we want to do is place a small dab of pastry cream onto our serving plate to hold the tart shell in place.

: All ingredients are ready to prepare the strawberry tart.

: Place a little custard on the serving platter which is on a decorators stand to help anchor the shell while you fill it.

Place the tart shell on the serving plate. Fill with vanilla custard.

: Carefully transfer the shell to the serving board.

: Fill the shell with the vanilla custard.

Add the strawberry slices, starting from the outside edge working you way to the center.

: Add the cut strawberries starting from the outside edge working towards the center.

: Almost done.

And you are done. If you like the shinny fruit that you see in the bakery, that is easy to do. Just melt some apricot jam in a pot until it is liquid then use a pastry brush to brush it on. The apricot jam gives it a nice shine and helps preserve the fruit. This tart must be refrigerated until serving since the custard is highly perishable.

: Our strawberry tart. Make sure it is kept refrigerated until serving time.
