RUSTIC PEACH TART WITH BERRIES This recipe came from an estate sale. I obtained it when I purchased the family collection from the Sockwell Estate in Lancaster, Texas in 1988. Ingredients:
1-2/3 cups all purpose flour |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon granulated sugar |
8 tablespoons cold unsalted butter cut into 1/2 dices |
1/2 cup cold water |
2/3 cup plus 1 teaspoon sugar |
3 tablespoons cornstarch |
3 pounds ripe but firm peaches peeled and sliced 1/2 thick |
1 cup blueberries |
Directions:
1. Place flour, salt and sugar in a bowl then cut in cold butter with a pastry cutter.
2. When the mixture looks like breadcrumbs add water and mix with fingers to bring into a ball.
3. Knead lightly to get the mixture to come together.
4. Place in wax paper in refrigerator to chill at least 20 minutes.
5. To make filling in a large bowl whisk 2/3 cup sugar with cornstarch then gently toss in peaches.
6. Let sit 15 minutes tossing occasionally then stir in blueberries.
7. Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to about 14” around.
8. Transfer to a parchment lined or nonstick baking sheet.
9. Mound filling into center then brush edges with water and fold sides up around fruit.
10. Leave large opening in middle then brush water on top edges and sprinkle with sugar.
11. Bake on lower rack of preheated 400 oven for 35 minutes then allow to cool 5 minutes.
12. Remove from baking sheet and serve warm or at room temperature.
