BLACKBERRY JAM CROSTATA
With a press-in-the-pan buttery cookie crust and a tangy jam filling that's topped with almonds and Demerara sugar, this crostata is simple, homey and utterly delightful. A touch of whole-wheat flour gives the crust complexity and a gentle nutty flavor, while homemade blackberry jam spiked with lemon verbena makes the confection festive enough for guests. This recipe is adapted from Elizabeth Minchilli, a food writer in Rome, who often buys excellent-quality cherry jam for the filling. If you'd like to substitute store-bought jam, use 1 1/2 cups.

Steps:
- Make the jam: In a medium saucepan, stir together blackberries, blueberries, sugar and lemon verbena, if using. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally at first, then more frequently as the mixture starts to bubble and reduce.
- When mixture has reduced and looks syrupy (about 30 minutes total), stir in lemon juice and zest. Taste and add sugar if necessary. (This depends on how sweet your berries were to begin with.) Cook for 3 minutes longer, stirring frequently to prevent burning. When the jam is thickened and shiny but still slightly runnier than you expect jam to be, take it off the heat; it will continue to thicken as it cools.
- Scrape jam into a bowl or heatproof container, stir in vanilla and let cool to room temperature. Taste and stir in a little more lemon juice if the jam seems very sweet. At this point, the cooled jam can be chilled for up to 1 week.
- Make the dough: In a medium bowl, whisk together all-purpose and whole-wheat flours, and set aside. In a second bowl and using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in egg yolks, lemon zest, vanilla, salt and almond extract until combined, then beat in flour mixture.
- Scoop 1/2 cup of the dough into a bowl or container, cover and chill. Transfer remaining dough to a 9- or 10-inch tart pan and use floured fingers to press evenly into bottom and sides. Chill crust in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.
- When ready to bake, heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread jam evenly into crust, then using your fingers, crumble reserved 1/2 cup dough over jam. Sprinkle with almonds and Demerara sugar.
- Bake until golden, 38 to 48 minutes. Let cool completely to room temperature before serving.

Steps:
- Begin by preheating your oven to 400 degrees F. Also line a baking sheet with parchment paper so it will be ready after you've rolled out the crust.
- In a large bowl combine blackberries, sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, cinnamon, almond extract, and cornstarch. Stir until combined; then set aside.
- On a lightly floured work surface, roll out your pie dough into a large circle about 1/4" thick. Transfer the pie dough to your baking sheet.
- Pour the blackberry mixture onto the center of the dough. Gently pull the side of the dough up and around the blackberries, leaving some of the fruit in the center still exposed.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water. Brush on the pie crust; then sprinkle generously with the sanding sugar.
- Bake the crostata at 400 degrees F for about 40 - 50 minutes or until the fruit is bubbly and the crust is golden.
- For a firm filling, allow the crostata to cool completely before cutting and serving. Or serve warm if you prefer a slightly runnier filling.

Steps:
- PREHEAT oven to 180°C GREASE a 26cm round shallow baking tin with a little butter. MIX the butter and flour in a large bowl or free-standing electric mixer, until it resembles fine sand. ADD the egg yolks, sugar, lemon zest, vanilla extract and baking powder. MIX until well combined and the mixture starts to form a dough. If it seems a little dry, add a splash of rum, Amaretto or milk. COVER the dough with cling film and rest in the fridge for 30 minutes. CUT off one quarter of the dough and set aside. ROLL out the remaining pastry on a floured surface until it's just under1cm thick and large enough to line the prepared tin. SPOON the jam into the pastry case and spread to form an even surface. FOLD over any excess pastry around the sides to create a 2cm border. ROLL out the remaining quarter of the dough and cut into long strips, about 2.5cm wide. (Use a pasta cutter to create a crinkled edge if you have one) CREATE with the cut strips a lattice effect over the top of the jam. BAKE for 30-45 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown. LEAVE to cool in its tin before serving.

Steps:
- Mix the flour, sugar, and lemon peel, in a food processor. Add the butter. Pulse until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. Add salt.

Transfer the dough onto a heavy baking sheet that has been lined with a silpat or parchment paper. Stir the lemon juice into the preserve 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.

Form a flat disk and wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 20 minutes to overnight.

With the extra dough make strips to create a lattice finish. Brush top lightly with milk and bake in pre heated oven at 350° (180°) for 25-30 minutes or until golden. Let cool then slice, enjoy!

- In a large bowl, using a fork, stir together the all-purpose flour, cake flour, sugar, lemon zest and salt. Using your fingertips, work in the butter until the dough resembles coarse meal. Make a well in the center and add the whole egg. Gently blend the ingredients with a fork to form a soft dough. Gather the dough into a ball and flatten it into a disk. Wrap the disk in plastic and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 350°. Using a knife, cut two-thirds of the dough from the disk; wrap the rest in plastic and refrigerate. Roll out the dough between 2 large sheets of wax paper to a 10-inch round about 1/8 inch thick; refrigerate the dough until chilled but pliable, about 5 minutes. Peel off the wax paper and fit the dough into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Patch any weak spots and refrigerate the shell. Roll out the remaining dough between sheets of wax paper into a 9-by-6-inch rectangle about 1/8 inch thick. Refrigerate until chilled.
- 3.Spoon the jam into the tart shell and spread it evenly. Cut the dough rectangle lengthwise into 12 strips. Arrange half of the strips across the tart; for a decorative look, twist the strips first. (Discard the wax paper.) Working in the opposite direction, repeat with the remaining strips to form a lattice. Brush the lattice with the egg yolk wash. Bake the tart on the bottom rack of the oven for 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crisp. Serve at room temperature.
