Categories     Dessert

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
5 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
12 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
8 large pears, washed
3 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tbsp water
3/4 cup fig preserves
1/4 tsp salt

Steps:

  • Position one oven rack to middle, and move the second rack to the top slot.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a bowl, mix together flour, sugar and salt. Add melted butter and combine to form dough.
  • Transfer dough to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. With your hands press dough down to spread on bottom and onto the rims of the pan.
  • Place in the oven on the middle rack and bake for 30 minutes, or until crust turns golden brown. When ready remove crust from oven and let sit to cool. Leave oven on.
  • Meanwhile, heat the fig preserves in microwave for about 40 seconds. Pour heated fig preserves through a mesh strainer to separate chunks from liquid.
  • Now, slice five pears into 1/2-inch slices, discarding core.
  • Heat 1 tbsp of butter in a large cast iron skillet. Add pear slices and 1 tbsp water. Cover and cook on medium heat until pears are slightly tender; about 3 minutes.
  • Remove pears onto a large platter and let sit to cool.
  • Take the remaining three pears and cut them in the same manner.
  • Now melt 2 tbsp of butter in previously used cast iron skillet. Add newly-sliced pears, chunks of fig reserves, and salt. Cook on medium heat, covered, for ten minutes; stir occasionally until pears are very tender.
  • Take a potato masher and mash the pears and fig reserves into a puree. Let cook for another 5-7 minutes or until pureed mixture reduces and thickens.
  • Transfer pear-fig puree onto the now cooled crust; spread evenly.
  • Now, take the cooled pear slices and begin to assemble them in layered circles, starting at the outer edges (see photo).
  • Place tart on the middle rack of the oven. Bake in 350 degree F-heated oven for 30 minutes.
  • Warm up the strained liquid fig preserves for 20 seconds in the microwave.
  • When tart is ready, remove from oven and brush surface of the pears evenly with the warmed fig liquid.
  • Return to oven and place on the top rack. Broil very briefly; watching carefully until pears gain a nice caramelized look.
  • Remove from oven and let cool for at least 1 1/2 hours before serving.
  • When ready, place the bottom of the tart pan on a wide can of food. Hold the ring part of the pan and carefully slide it downwards (see photo).
  • Cut pear fig tart into eight slices and serve. Enjoy!

PEAR TARTE - MEDIEVAL PEAR PIE



Pear Tarte - Medieval Pear Pie image

I have translated this from The English Huswife by Gervase Markham 1615 AD. It's unusual in that before this time pies were almost always made with a single crust while this one has two. Often a two crusted pie was called a coffin in that time period. Rosewater can be found in most healthfood stores or Middle Eastern groceries in the US.

FRENCH PEAR PIE



French Pear Pie image

Fruit pies always make a good dessert, I think. Based on the reviews, I don't think any changes are necessary for this adopted recipe. The reviewer's suggestion of lemon juice instead of orange juice is a great idea if you're like me and always have lemons or lemon juice but rarely keep orange juice in the house.

PEAR TARTE TATIN



Pear Tarte Tatin image

Tarte tatin is a classic French dessert, essentially an upside-down pie. Pears are caramelized in a sugar-butter mixture in an oven-safe skillet, covered with crust, and baked in the oven.

Provided by Bibi

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     French

Time 1h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (15 ounce) package ready-to-use refrigerated pie crust
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground ginger
2 tablespoons white sugar
5 firm pears
2 tablespoons good quality bourbon whiskey
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
⅔ cup white sugar
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Remove refrigerated pie crust from package, and follow manufacturer's suggestions for unrolling crust. Set aside.
  • Combine nutmeg, ginger, and 2 tablespoons sugar in a small bowl.
  • Peel, quarter, and core 4 pears. Slice each quarter into 3 slices, from core end to bottom, and place in a large bowl. Cut remaining pear in half; peel, and core one half and add to the bowl. Peel, core, and slice the other half as directed above and add to the bowl. Drizzle pears with bourbon and sprinkle with spice-sugar mix, tossing to evenly coat.
  • Melt butter in a 9-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add 2/3 cup white sugar and salt to the melted butter, stirring to combine until mixture bubbles, 2 to 3 minutes. Place the single pear half in the center of the skillet. Fan remaining pear slices around the center, core end to the outside of the skillet and stem end toward the center. If possible, turn the pieces in the same direction. Keep adding pear slices, filling in any gaps, until they are all in the skillet.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, undisturbed, until pears are fork-tender and color develops to the liquid, about 20 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place a baking sheet on a rack in the lower third of the oven.
  • Remove skillet from heat and place unbaked pie shell on top of the fruit, using a fork to tuck the edges of the pie shell toward the bottom of the skillet. Place skillet on the prepared baking sheet in the preheated oven. Reduce temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bake until crust is brown, 28 to 30 minutes. Remove from oven. Place a heat-safe plate, larger than the skillet, upside down over the crust.
  • Use oven mitts to grab the plate and skillet together and quickly flip the skillet contents onto the plate; this move is tricky and requires some forearm strength and dexterity. After the flip, if the contents are not centered on the plate, use a spatula to gently move to the center. Add any fruit that remained in the skillet, and drizzle any remaining liquid over the top of the tarte tatin.
  • Allow to sit 15-20 minutes, then serve warm.
