Crust

Nectarine Caramel

Method

Prepare the Crust

  1. 1

    Make the Tart Crust

    In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, mixing until the dough comes together. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Bake the Crust

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the chilled dough and fit it into a tart pan. Prick the bottom with a fork and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden. Allow to cool.

Make the Nectarine Caramel

  1. 3

    Prepare the Nectarines

    Slice the nectarines and remove the pits. In a saucepan, melt the sugar over medium heat until it caramelizes. Add butter and nectarines, stirring gently until they're coated and softened. Stir in the vanilla extract and cook for an additional minute.

Make the Tarragon Cream

  1. 4

    Whip the Cream

    In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add powdered sugar, tarragon, and vanilla extract, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.

Assemble the Tart

  1. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Spread the tarragon cream over the cooled tart crust. Spoon the warm nectarine caramel over the cream. Serve immediately or chill for later.
