Step 1
Start with making a Pastry cream. In a large enough bowl with the help of a Hand whisk, mix together sugar and egg yolk until slightly fluffy for about 1-2 minutes. Mix in corn starch, flour, and vanilla with until throughly incorporated and have a smooth paste
Step 2
Bring milk to boil in a saucepan on medium heat then remove it as soon as it starts simmering. Make sure it is simmering but not crazy boiling, see my tips above. Pour the warm milk over the egg yolk mixture slowly while whisking vigorously with a Hand whisk.
Step 3
Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook on medium heat for a few minutes until it thickens. Concretely it is approximately 1 min after the first boil. It might get lumpy first, don't worry just keep whisking and the cream will get smooth and glossy
Step 4
If in doubt, strain the pastry cream for a lump free, creamy end result
Step 5
Add in room temperature soft butter and mix with a Rubber spatula until completely incorporated. It is worth to add the butter in 3 stages and mix well after each addition. Place the cream into a shallow bowl and cover the entire surface with plastic wrap to avoid skin forming on top. Let it cool
Step 6
Cream butter for a few minutes until becomes really fluffy
Step 7
Similarly to the butter, cream powdered sugar with egg yolk for a couple of minutes until pale
Step 8
Using a Rubber spatula fold creamed butter into creamed egg yolk mixture until combined
Step 9
Sift in dry ingredients (flour, almond flour, baking powder, salt) and mix throughout. If the dough is too runny, chill it in the fridge for 10-15 minutes, otherwise, continue with spreading the dough onto a Silicone baking mat (or baking sheet) using an Offset spatula.
Step 10
Aim to spread the dough in a circle of 19cm / 7.5inches in diameter. Place a Mousse cake ring (adjustable in size) on top of the dough or use a spring-form (only the side part, not the bottom) so the dough won´t spread while baking
Step 11
Chill the dough in the fridge for 1hour before baking, or freeze for 15 minutes while preheating the oven to 180C / 356F.
Step 12
Bake it for 20-25 minutes, until risen and golden brown.
Step 13
Let it come to room temperature, then remove the cake ring
Step 14
Blend the raspberries and run in through a sieve to get rid of the seeds.
Step 15
Then, cook with sugar and lemon juice over medium heat until slightly thickens to be able to spread on the Sable Breton tart crust
Step 16
Crème mousseline can be made with room temp pastry cream and room temp butter. Make sure everything is at room temp otherwise the mixture might curdle
Step 17
Once pastry cream cooled to room temp, prepare the mousseline cream by whipping room temp butter first for 1-2 minutes
Step 18
Start adding in the room temp pastry cream in 4 stages until cream reaches a stable yet fluffy texture. Do not over whip the mixture as it can become runny
Step 19
For the raspberry mousseline cream mix 1/4 of the cream with a small amount of (one tablespoon) raspberry coulis
Step 20
Spread the raspberry confit on top of the tart then pipe creme mousseline on top altering between the vanilla bean and raspberry one
Step 21
Dust around the edges with powdered sugar, then place a few green leaves eg. mint, and raspberries on top
Step 22
Store in fridge
