I am so anxious for summer to arrive, it's hardly funny. This year has been a crazy one, to say the least, so the summer break promises just that - a little break with lots of warm (hot! yay!) sunshine. Summer also means the garden will be producing tomatoes and zucchini like crazy, of which I will not complain about for one single second.
I made this tart a few weeks ago with summer in mind. Of course, the tomatoes and zucchini came from the local grocery, but as soon as summer hits, I know this tart will taste that much better with just-picked fresh vegetables from out back.
Notes: I really love this crust. I use it all the time when making savory tarts. I love that it uses all whole-grain flour and olive oil. It's tender and flavorful. It's also a great one to add additional herbs to. I might try adding a little fresh basil to the dough next time. Also, this tart will feed five hungry people. I tried to stretch it to 7 one night and Dad was not happy. He wanted more. I like it when people want more... It means I did pretty good, right?

ReplyDeletewe make a tart like this every summer. Your blog is beautiful, and makes my mouth water, so happy to find you!
ReplyDeleteI pinned this. My niece is absolutely crazy about zucchini and I try to make it for her when she visits. She thinks zucchini is gourmet. She was out of college before she knew what it was. She accuses my sister of child abuse. :)
ReplyDeleteLol! Isn't zucchini wonderful!? I hope you enjoy this tart - it's a great summer dish!
