Method
Crust Preparation
Make the Crust
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in ice water, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Form into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Filling Preparation
Prepare the Filling
In another bowl, combine strawberries, sugar, almond extract, chopped basil, and cornstarch. Toss until the strawberries are well coated and set aside.
Assembly & Baking
Assemble and Bake
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to fit a tart pan. Place the dough in the pan and fill it with the strawberry mixture. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling. Sprinkle sliced almonds on top. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly.
Serve
Allow to cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar and serving.
