Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and diced
- 1/4 cup ice-cold water
- 1 cup ripe blueberries
- 1/2 cup yuzu curd (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon coarse sugar (for topping)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sea salt, and granulated sugar.
- Incorporate the chilled, diced butter using your fingertips or a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles a sandy texture.
- Slowly drizzle in the ice-cold water, mixing gently until the dough forms.
- Shape the dough into a flat disk, wrap it in plastic, and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least half an hour.
- While the dough is chilling, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
- Once the dough is ready, roll it out on a floured surface to a thickness of about 1/8 inch.
- Use a 5-inch round cutter or a bowl to cut out circles and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Spoon approximately 2 tablespoons of yuzu curd onto the center of each dough circle, leaving a 1-inch border.
- Scatter a handful of blueberries over the curd.
- Gently fold the edges of the dough over the filling, creating pleats to form a charming rustic border.
- Brush the folded edges with the beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar for a delightful crunch.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and the blueberries are bubbling.
- Let the pastries cool for a few minutes before enjoying.
Notes
- For an extra layer of flavor, consider mixing a teaspoon of vanilla extract into the yuzu curd before filling the pastries.
- You can also swap out the blueberries for raspberries or blackberries for a delightful variation.
