Wild Mushroom Tarte Recipe

Prepare the Puff Pastry

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to fit your tart pan. Place the pastry in the pan and prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling.

Make the Mushroom Duxelles

In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add finely chopped shallots and garlic, and sauté until softened. Add the wild mushrooms and thyme, cooking until the mushrooms release their moisture and the mixture becomes dry. Season with salt and pepper.

Prepare the Black Garlic Vinaigrette

In a small bowl, mash the black garlic cloves into a paste. Whisk in olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Assemble and Bake

Spread the mushroom duxelles evenly over the puff pastry. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is golden and puffed.

Serve

Remove the tart from the oven, let it cool slightly, then drizzle with the black garlic vinaigrette before slicing and serving.
