LEEK AND CHANTERELLE TART

Steps:

• Make crust: In a medium bowl, mix flour, salt, and pepper. Rub butter into flour until most of it looks like cornmeal but some larger, pea-size pieces remain. Drizzle in 3 tablespoons ice-cold water while stirring quickly with a fork. Or, pulse flour, salt, pepper, and butter in a food processor until a coarse, cornmeal-textured mixture forms, then drizzle in ice water until dough comes together. Turn dough onto a large piece of plastic wrap and use wrap to press dough into a 1-in.-thick disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 30 minutes and up to 2 days.
• Preheat oven to 375. Lightly flour a work surface. Unwrap dough; with a rolling pin gently roll it, turning dough 90 degrees between each roll, into a 12 inch circle.
• Place rolled-out dough in a 9 1/2 inches tart pan. Trim edges flush with pan edges. Cover dough with a large piece of aluminum foil and weigh down with pie weights, dried beans, or uncooked rice.
• Bake crust 20 minutes. Lift foil and weights off crust and bake until beginning to turn golden, about 10 minutes. Let crust cool to room temperature.
• Meanwhile, make filling: Melt butter in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add leeks and salt and cook, stirring, until leeks are soft, about 3 minutes. Turn heat to high and add mushrooms. Cook, stirring constantly, until mushrooms have given off their liquid 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in thyme, cream, and pepper, then turn off heat and let cool to room temperature.
• Spread half of the grated cheese over tart crust. Spread leek-mushroom mixture on top and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake until cheese is melted and golden, about 25 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes before cutting. Serve warm or at room temperature.

RUSTIC BACON AND APPLE TART (TOP CHEF CANADA)

Steps:

• Tart Crust.
• Place the walnuts into a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Add in the next 3 ingredients and pulse a few times to combine. Next, toss in the cubed butter and pulse until the flour/walnut mixture resembles a small crumble. Slowly pour in the cold water while pulsing until a soft dough forms. Remove from food processor and place onto a floured surface. Form into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and let chill in the fridge for about an hour.
• Apple Bacon Filling.
• Cook the bacon in a large pan on the stove until very crispy. Remove from pan, leaving some of the rendered bacon fat. Place the apple slices in the pan and sauté for 5 minutes on medium-high heat. Next, add in the next six ingredients, stir to combine and let simmer on low heat for another 10 minutes. Carefully sprinkle in the flour to help the filling thicken. Return the crispy bacon to the pan and remove from heat to let cool before filling the tarts.
• Assembly.
• Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Roll out the chilled dough to approximately 1/4" thickness and press into prepared tart shells or tray. Fill each tart with a couple spoonfuls of the apple bacon filling and bake in the oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes.

ROQUEFORT, LEEK AND WALNUT TART

Steps:

• Blend together flour, baking powder and half the salt in a bowl or a food processor. Beat egg yolk with 5 tablespoons cold water. Stir in olive oil. Pour this mixture over the flour mixture and beat with a fork if using a bowl, or pulse about a dozen times in the processor, until dough starts to come together. Add another teaspoon or two of water if mixture is too dry.
• Gather dough together and knead briefly on a lightly floured surface to form into a ball. Roll and trim to make an oblong 9 by 13 inches or a 12-inch round. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Fold up a half-inch border all around either shape. Heat oven to 400 degrees.
• Spread bacon in a heavy skillet and cook until very lightly browned. Stir in leeks and remaining salt and cook until softened and translucent. Stir in walnuts, sauté about 30 seconds, and remove from heat. Mash Roquefort and work in crème fraîche. Spread on pastry. Scatter leek, bacon and walnut mixture evenly on top. Bake 20 minutes, allow to cool briefly, cut in squares or wedges and serve.
