Tarta francesa de limón con crema de limón

Ingredientes

• 1 1/3 cup Flour
• 1/4 tsp Kosher salt
• 1/3 cup Powder sugar
• 1/2 cup Butter (cold, unsalted)
• 1 Egg (large)
• 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup Lemon juice
• 2 tbsp Lemon zest
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 1/4 tsp Kosher salt
• 2 Eggs (large)
• 4 Egg yolks (large)

Preparación

1. 1

   In a food processor, combine flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Add cold butter and blend until pea-sized pieces form. Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until a dough forms; avoid overmixing.

2. 2

   Chill the dough wrapped in plastic wrap for at least one hour.

3. 3

   Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface into a circle. Transfer to a 9-inch tart pan, trimming excess edges, and prick holes in the base. Freeze for 20 minutes.

4. 4

   Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C) and bake crust for 15-20 minutes until lightly golden brown. Let cool.

5. 5

   Prepare the lemon curd by whisking together lemon juice, zest, granulated sugar, butter, eggs, and yolks over low heat until thickened (about 10-15 minutes). Pour into the cooled crust and refrigerate until set.
