VEGETABLE TART

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place a quarter-sheet pan or pie plate on a rimmed baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper.
• For the pie crust: In a food processor, pulse the flour, salt and butter together until the butter is the size of peas. Add the egg yolks and pulse until well combined. While pulsing, slowly add the ice water until the dough just comes together. Tip out onto a board and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
• When the dough is rested, roll out into a rectangle and place into the prepared baking sheet. Line with parchment paper and fill with pie weights. Blind bake for 20 minutes. Remove the weights and parchment and bake for another 10 minutes until golden. Set aside.
• Turn the oven temperature up to 375 degrees F.
• In a medium skillet over medium heat, drizzle in the olive oil. Add the garlic, thyme sprigs and onion and saute until translucent. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside to cool; discard the thyme.
• For the vegetables: Lay the zucchini, yellow squash and butternut squash on a parchment-lined half-sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake for about 5 minutes in the oven, just enough to partially cooked the vegetables.
• For the custard: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and half-and-half. Add the lemon zest, chopped thyme, and salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Cover the base of the pie crust with the cooked onions and sprinkle over half of the cheese. Arrange the vegetables on top, and then pour over the custard mixture carefully. Sprinkle over the rest of the cheese.
• Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the center is set. Cool for at least 20 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Put a rack in the center of the oven and heat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a silicone liner or parchment paper. If you like, you can sprinkle Gruyère or Cheddar onto the center of the liner or paper in an approximate 10-by-13-inch rectangle.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together egg, Parmesan, lemon zest or rosemary, garlic (if using), and pinch of salt and pepper until smooth. Beat in the crème fraîche until smooth.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry to form a 10-by-13-inch rectangle, about 1/8-inch thick. Transfer the dough to prepared baking sheet. (Place directly on top of the grated cheese, if applicable.) With a sharp knife, lightly score a 3/4-inch border around the edges of the puff pastry, making sure not to cut the pastry all the way through. Using a fork, prick the pastry all over inside the border at 1-inch intervals.
• Spread crème fraîche mixture evenly inside the scored border. Arrange vegetables in an even layer, using just enough to cover the surface in one layer. Scatter scallions and thyme or rosemary sprigs on top. Lightly drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Bake until the pastry is puffed and golden, and the vegetables are cooked through, about 25 to 35 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. Serve topped with microgreens, herbs or baby lettuces, and accompanied by lemon or lime wedges, for squeezing.
