Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and diced
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 Earl Grey tea bags
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 teaspoons gelatin powder
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
  • 2 tablespoons lemon zest
  • 1/4 cup raspberry jam

Мethod of preparation

To begin, make the pastry crust by combining flour, sugar, salt, and butter in a food processor until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water and pulse until the dough forms. Chill for an hour before rolling out and baking in a 9-inch tart pan at 350°F until golden. Allow to cool.

For the filling, steep Earl Grey tea bags in hot heavy cream for 15 minutes, then remove the bags. Sprinkle gelatin over cold water to bloom, then heat gently until dissolved and mix into the tea-infused cream. Pour this mixture into the baked crust and chill until set.

Top with fresh raspberries, brush with melted raspberry jam for a glossy finish, and sprinkle lemon zest over the top. Chill until ready to serve. This Raspberry Earl Grey Tart combines the rich flavors of Earl Grey tea with the fresh tartness of raspberries, creating a delightful balance that's both refreshing and sophisticated.
