Elegant and feminine, these tarts are fully “tarted up.” While the casual dollop of meringue on each tart reminds me of a generous helping of whipped cream, it is a light-as-air meringue that sweetens up the fresh berry filling.
Ingredients
Crust
| pastry flour, sifted |
Method
For the crust, blend the flour, sugar, and salt in a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Cut in the butter, on low speed, until a rough crumbly texture. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolk with the vinegar and cold water. Add this all at once to the flour mixture and blend. If the dough is still crumbly, add 1 to 2 Tbsp (15 to 30 mL) water. Shape the dough into a log, wrap in plastic wrap
