Rosemary Manchego Tart Dough Recipes

ROSEMARY-MANCHEGO TART DOUGH

Steps:

• Finely grate parsnip (you will need 1/2 cup). Place on a clean kitchen towel (do not use paper towels), and squeeze to extract as much liquid as possible.
• Pulse parsnip, flour, salt, sugar, pepper, butter, cheese, and rosemary in a food processor. Add yolk, and pulse to combine. With machine running, add ice water in a slow, steady stream, processing until dough just comes together (no longer than 15 seconds). Shape into a disk, and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 days).

APPLE-ONION TARTS

Steps:

• Heat oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add apples and onions, and cook until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until very soft and caramelized, about 35 minutes. Add vinegar and salt, and cook 5 minutes. Let cool.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to a generous 1/8 inch thick. Cut out six 7-inch rounds, gathering scraps and rerolling dough if needed. Place on parchment-lined baking sheets.
• Puree half the apple-onion mixture in a food processor until smooth. Using an offset spatula, spread 3 tablespoons apple-onion puree over each dough round, leaving a 1-inch border around edges. Sprinkle each with 2 tablespoons cheese. Season with pepper. Top each with a generous tablespoon of remaining apple-onion mixture, and sprinkle with 2 teaspoons cheese. Fold edges of dough in, crimping with your fingers. Refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Bake until edges are golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve tarts warm or at room temperature.

Spoon a thin layer into mini phyllo shells. Top each with a cube of Manchego cheese and bake at 425°F until the cheese melts, about 8 minutes. Top with chopped parsley if desired.

ROSEMARY DOUGH

Steps:

• Brush a large bowl with oil; set aside. Stir together water, sugar, and yeast in a medium bowl until yeast has dissolved. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
• Stir together flour, rosemary, and salt in a medium bowl. Add oil to yeast mixture; stir into flour mixture until a dough forms. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface; knead with floured hands until smooth, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to oiled bowl; turn to coat. Cover with plastic wrap; let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in bulk, about 45 minutes.
• Remove plastic wrap; punch down dough. Shape into a round. Cover with plastic wrap; let rise again until doubled in bulk, about 30 minutes.
