ENGADINER NUSSTORTE (SWISS NUT CAKE)
This recipe is from a swiss web site and has been posted here for the ZWT - 7 World Tour - Switzerland. Engadiner Nusstorte is a traditional sweet, caramelised nut (generally walnut) filled pastry from canton Graubünden in Switzerland. The modern filled Nusstorte was first widely available in the 1960s though it was invented in the 1920s.

Steps:
- Grease a 12" spring form pan and put aside until needed.
- For the filling: Put 12 oz sugar in a frying-pan, fry slowly until the sugar starts to foam, do not stir, because the sugar will get lumpy.
- Next add the walnuts, mix well and remove from the heat before the sugar gets too brown.
- Now add the cream immediately and let it boil down, remove from heat and allow to cool.
- For the dough: Mix the flour, margarine or butter and the remaining 5 oz of sugar, the egg and the salt and make a dough.
- Cut the dough into three peices, two of the same size and one slightly smaller.
- Roll the two peices of the same size to make up a bottom and a top of the cake in a 12" pan.
- Form a roll with the third piece and place it on the sides of the spring form pan .
- Pour the filling evenly on the bottom, and then cover the cake with the top peice.
- Bake in the oven at lower level at 400°F for 40-45 minutes.
- Open the spring form pan immediately after removing from the oven to prevent the cake from sticking to the pan.

FRUITY ALMOND PUFF PASTRY TART
We are making frangipane. It sounds super fancy, but it's code for a tasty tart filling times ten. It is most classically made with almonds, but is also tasty when you sub in the same amount of hazelnuts or pecans. The tart is usually either strawberry or raspberry with some sweet apricot jam to coat the fruit, but you can get creative with what you have on hand. Nuts with buttery puff pastry topped with tart fruit with a dash of jam? It takes me straight to the streets of Paris...

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Place the sheet of puff pastry in the center of a baking sheet fitted with parchment. Top the puff with another sheet of parchment. Place a baking sheet directly on top of the parchment on top of the puff pastry. This weighs down the puff as it bakes and makes it uniform.
- Place the baking sheet in the center of the oven and bake until the puff pastry is partially cooked and lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and take the baking sheet and top sheet of parchment off the pastry.
- While the pastry is baking, make the frangipane. In the bowl of the food processor, pulse the almonds until they become like a coarse, wet powder. Add the sugar, butter, flour, almond extract, cinnamon and egg and pulse until it forms a paste.
- Gently spread the frangipane in an even layer over the puff pastry, leaving a 1/2-inch border, and place the baking sheet back in the center of the oven. Reduce the oven temperature to 400 degrees F. Bake until the frangipane and pastry are browned, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool to room temperature.
- In a small pot, warm the jam over low heat until it melts slightly, about 30 seconds.
- Transfer the puff to a flat surface and use a serrated knife to gently cut into 9 even pieces. Arrange the pieces close together on a serving platter as if they make a whole tart. Drizzle some of the warmed jam over the top edges of the pastry and frangipane to create a "glue" for the raspberries to stick to the pastry. Arrange the raspberries over the top of each piece. Drizzle the remaining jam gently over the raspberries and finish with a sprinkle of sugar for added texture. Serve at room temperature. Refrigerate the leftovers (if there are any!!).
ENGADINER NUSSTORTE - SWISS NUT TART

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 175 °C / 350 °F. Grease a 24cm / 9.4 inch springform pan or line the bottom with parchment paper.
- Add flour, sugar, butter, lemon zest , egg and a pinch of salt into a bowl. Using two knives cut into it till you get a crumbly dough. Once the dough is crumbly, use your hands to knead it into a dough. Form a ball and cover with clingfilm. Place in the fridge to chill for at least 30 minutes.
- In a saucepan, bring sugar, water and honey to a boil while stirring. Boil until the sugar reaches a beautiful light brown color.
- Add the walnuts and give it a quick stir. Stir in the double cream. You'll notice that the walnuts will stick to the sugar and the double cream will look a bit runny. You may think it'll fail now but don't worry. The sugar and cream will start to mix and form a caramel, just give it some time. Bring the mixture to a boil and leave to simmer and turn into a dark golden brown caramel (15-20 minutes). Keep a close eye on the caramel while it's simmering, stir it occasionally. You want to make sure the caramel doesn't burn. When the caramel reaches a nice dark golden brown, thick consistency, take the pan off the heat and set aside to cool.
- Take 2/3 of your dough out of the fridge and put it into a springform, cover the bottom and make the sides 2-3cm / 0.8-1.1 inch high.
- Pour the cooled, thick walnut caramel into the springform and spread evenly over the pastry.
- Take the rest of the dough and roll it out to the size of your springform. Place the rolled out dough onto your filling and flip the sides over the cover and press lightly with a fork to seal the edges. Lightly prick the top of the tart with a fork.
- Lightly whisk the egg and brush the tart with the eggwash. Place the tart in the oven and bake approximately 35-50 minutes, until the tart has a golden color.

Steps:
- Cook the dried fruit by simmering in a saucepan of water until softened enough to mash.
- Drain well and allow to cool slightly before processing in a food processor to a thick, chunky pulp.
- Have this done in advance and at room temperature when ready to fill pastry.
- Set flour for the pastry dough in a bowl and using two forks or a pastry blender, cut in the butter pieces until the mixture resembles small pebbles.
- Add water a little at a time, mixing until the dough starts to form up a ball.
- Gather into a ball with your hands gently and knead on a very lightly floured surface just enough to make a smooth ball of dough- do not overwork the dough.
- Cover in plastic and chill while preparing filling.
- If you prefer, you may substitute a premade refrigerated pastry dough.
- Beat the eggs until they are thick and lemony.
- Beat in the granulated sugar 1 Tbsp at a time.
- Fold in the nuts.
- Roll out pastry dough on a lightly floured surface and cut to fit into the bottom of a 9-inch well greased springform pan.
- Spread the cooled mashed fruit over the dough and then pour the nut mixture over the fruit.
- Bake in a preheated 350°F oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the eggy filling is set.
- Chill, then remove sides of pan carefully, slice and serve.
- Store in the refrigerator.

FRESH FRUIT TART WITH ALMOND PRESS-IN CRUST
Eating fruit tarts is great. Rolling out dough on a brutally hot day isn't. Good thing this stunner has a no-fuss press-in crust.

Steps:
- Crust:
- Place a rack in the middle of oven; preheat to 350°F. Whisk egg yolks and 1 Tbsp. cold water in a small bowl to combine.
- Whisk all-purpose flour, almond flour, sugar, and salt in a medium bowl. Add butter and rub and smash into dry ingredients with your fingers to create large, shaggy pieces (you want some pieces that are flat and thin and some that are large and irregular).
- Drizzle egg yolk mixture over flour and, using a fork or your fingers, toss into dough to incorporate. Knead dough in bowl until it starts to come together (it will still look a little dry; although, if it looks too dry and doesn't come together, add 1-2 Tbsp. more water, but only if needed).
- Turn dough out onto a clean work surface and knead 1 or 2 more times. Divide dough in half, stack pieces, and press down firmly to smash together. Repeat process until dough is well combined and becomes slightly sticky, 2-3 more times. Press dough into bottom and 1" up sides of pan and prick all over with a fork. Freeze until very firm, 20-30 minutes.
- Bake crust until deep golden brown all over, 35-40 minutes. Let cool.
- Do Ahead: Crust can be baked 2 days ahead. Store tightly wrapped at room temperature.
- Custard and assembly:
- Bring milk and vanilla paste to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Remove from heat.
- Meanwhile, whisk egg yolks, sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a medium bowl, starting slowly-it won't want to combine easily at first-then vigorously whisk until mixture is very pale yellow and very thick, about 1 minute (the sugar should be nearly dissolved at this point). Whisking constantly, gradually add hot milk mixture. Return custard base to saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat, whisking constantly. Simmer, still whisking constantly, until custard is thickened and has no cornstarch taste, about 3 minutes.
- Remove custard from heat and add butter a couple of pieces at a time, whisking until fully melted before adding more, until all of the butter is incorporated. Transfer to a medium bowl and cover with plastic wrap, pressing directly against surface. Let cool.
- Vigorously whisk custard until smooth and slightly loosened. Scrape into crust and smooth surface. Top with berries.
- Do Ahead: Custard can be made 4 days ahead. Keep chilled.
