After we spent six months a 12 months in Italy, we at all times had a big backyard that I might as inspiration for my each day recipes. We planted a wide range of Italian tomatoes, my favourite being San Marzano, candy Datterini, and the Grapolli selection which I take advantage of to make my tomato jam.
Each summer season I ended up choosing a bowl stuffed with ripe cherry tomatoes from our backyard each day. I take advantage of these candy gems in salads, pasta dishes, egg quiches and cheese tarts like this favourite of mine. Ricotta and goat cheese are mixed to supply a creamy base layer for a topping of ripe, candy cherry tomatoes on this fast and simple tart.
I used a bought whole-wheat puff pastry for my crust, however you can use no matter tart crust you favor together with puff pastry, cracker crust, or piecrust. I selected to make use of candy cherry tomatoes for my tart to stability out the goat cheese, however any number of ripe, flavorful tomatoes can be utilized on this recipe, and recent herbs are important.
Buon Appetito!
