Step-by-step method

At a glance

This tart comes together in a few stages: a buttery shortcrust, a soft almond filling, and layers of strawberry purée and white chocolate ganache. Some parts rest overnight, so the prep stretches across two days, but each step feels calm and structured. The only delicate moment shows up when whipping the ganache, since stopping at the right texture keeps it smooth and silky.

    Ganache base

    Soak the gelatin in water. Heat half of the cream with half of the vanilla just below boiling point and dissolve the gelatin in it. Pour the hot mixture over the chocolate, stir, then add the remaining cold cream. Blend with an immersion blender, keeping it at the bottom. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.

    Ingredients

    • 115 gram White Chocolate 35%
    • 375 gram Whipping Cream 33%
    • 3 gram Powdered Gelatin (dry)
    • 13 gram Water
    • 1 piece Vanilla Bean
  2. 2/11

    Refreshing strawberry purée

    Let the gelatin bloom in water. Simmer the strawberries with sugar and lemon, then blend with an immersion blender. Stir the gelatin into the hot purée and mix until completely dissolved. Cover with plastic wrap directly on the surface and refrigerate.

    Ingredients

    • 250 gram Strawberries (frozen)
    • 40 gram Granulated Sugar
    • 4 gram Powdered Gelatin (dry)
    • 24 gram Water
    • 1 teaspoon Lemon Juice
  3. 3/11

    Preparing the shortcrust pastry

    Mix the dry ingredients, add the cold butter, and use a stand mixer with a paddle attachment to create a crumbly mixture. Add the egg and quickly work into a smooth dough. Press it a few times with the heel of your hand to ensure there are no visible butter pieces. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
