So, how to make Tomato Tart?

Steps to make Tomato Tart

1

Prepare crust

2

In a food processor, gently pulse the flour and 1 teaspoon of salt, before adding the butter and pulsing for a further 12-15 times, until the butter is the size of peas.

2

Add egg yolks

2

Add egg yolks and pulse a few more times to combine batter.

3

Add ice water

2

With the blender still running, add the ice water and continue pulsing until the dough starts to stick together.

4

Refrigerate

30

Roll out the dough onto a flat surface and into a disk shape. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

5

Preheat oven and prepare baking sheet

10

Preheat the oven to 450 °F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

6

Prepare seasoning

2

In a food processor, gently mix the parsley, basil, garlic, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and pepper each until finely minced.

7

Add oil

3

With blender still running, add olive oil and continue processing until combined.

8

Season tomatoes

2

In a mixing bowl, pour the seasoning over the tomatoes and toss gently to coat then set aside for later.

9

Prepare pastry

5

On a well-floured, flat surface, roll out the chilled dough into an 11x17-inch rectangle shape and transfer to the baking sheet. Cover pastry with another sheet pan or dried beans and place in the oven.

10

Bake pastry

10

Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes then remove the top sheet pan or baking beans, if using. Using a fork, lightly pierce the pastry, evenly, all over and place back in the oven to bake for a further 8-10 minutes, until lightly browned. If any spots in the pastry begin to bubble while baking, pierce through with the fork.

11

Cool

15

Remove from heat and allow to cool for 15 minutes.

12

Reheat oven

10

Lower the oven to 375 °F.

13

Add mustard and cheese

10

Using a pastry brush, brush dijon mustard over the cooled crust. Sprinkle a thick layer of Gruyere cheese over the pastry and reserve ½ cup for topping. Sprinkle ½ cup Parmesan cheese on top of the Gruyere cheese layer.

14

Add tomatoes

3

Place tomatoes, in overlapping rows, on top of the cheese. If there is any herb seasoning left, strain through a very fine mesh strainer, discarding the liquid and add the left-over garlic and herb mix over the tomatoes.

15

Top with cheese

2

Top with sprinkles of the remaining ½ cup Gruyere cheese and 2 tablespoons Parmesan.

16

Bake

30

Bake for 30 minutes at 375 °F.

17

Serve

15

Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
