Tarta cu crema de vanilie si fructe (Vanilla Cream Fruit Tart)

Share



         Stiti cum e cu vorba aia, ai grija ce-ti doresti ca s-ar putea sa se indeplineasca? :)) pai da, a venit vara, dar a venit si umezeala odata cu vara si a transformat aerul in irespirabil; toate bune si frumoase, problema e ca mi-a cam luat cheful de a sta in bucatarie si a prepara mancaruri bune, de aceea e cam slaba si activitatea pe blog :) apetitul a scazut si el ce-i drept putin, dar tot mai fac cate ceva bun din cand in cand, mai ales dulce...si daca tot e vara si mananc fructe cu kilogramele, am zis sa fac si eu o tarta cu fructe, ca mi-am cumparat forma de tarta de vreo 2 luni si inca nu am folosit-o :)))
         Prilejul perfect a venit cu provocarea lunii iulie "Dulce Romanie", pe care o gazduieste Flory de la RETETE FEL DE FEL luna aceasta si care a propus ca ingredient si fructele de padure, dupa care eu sunt innebunita, asa ca indata m-am pus pe treaba :) Eu ii multumesc de invitatie la provocare si va rog sa-i faceti o vizita, pentru ca are niste retete minunate, tot una si una! Si acum sa vedem dulcegaria :)
         You know what they say, be careful what you wish for because your wish may come true? :) well yes, summer is definitely here but it also brought humidity and made the air unbreathable; everything's fine, but the problem is that I don't want to stay in the kitchen anymore and prepare delicious meals, that's why the activity on my blog is pretty low lately :) my appetite has decreased also, but I still make yummy things from time to time, especially sweet things...and since lately I'm eating lots of fruits, I wanted to make a fruit tart, since I bought a fruit pan 2 months ago and I never used it :)))
         The perfect occasion came with July's "Sweet Romania" challenge hosted by Flory from Retete fel de fel who chose as an ingredient Berries, which are perfect since I totally love them, I couldn't miss them. I want to thank her for the invitation and I suggest all of you to visit her blog, she has some amazing recipes posted! And now let's see the recipe for the tart :)

Ingrediente/ Ingredients:

  Pt aluat/For the dough:  Sursa/Source

    125 g faina/125 g all purpose flour
    110 g unt/110 g butter
    1 ou/1 egg
    25 g zahar praf/25 g icing sugar
    1 lingura lapte/1 tablespoon with milk

Forma de tarta cu fund detasabil/ fluted tart pan with removable bottom







Pt crema de vanilie/For the vanilla cream: 

   3 galbenusuri/3 egg yolks
   400 ml lapte/400 ml milk
   25 g faina/25 g all purpose flour
   25 g amidon/25 g corn starch
   70 g zahar/70 g sugar
   vanilie/vanilla

Pt topping/For the topping:


   fructe: afine, zmeura, capsuni/ fruits: blueberry, raspberry, starwberry
 
Cum se face/How it's made:
   
Mai intai facem aluatul: intr-un bol punem faina amestecata cu zaharul, oul , untul rece taiat cubulete si laptele
We first make the dough: in a bowl we add the flour, sugar, cold butter, the egg and the milk.


Amestecam cu mana ingredientele pana se aduna laolalta, punem aluatul in folie alimentara si dam la frigider pentru minim 30 de minute, eu l-am lasat 1 ora; cu cat il lasati mai mult cu atat va fi mai fraged.
We combine the ingredients until we form a ball, we place the dough in saran wrap and we place it in the fridge for at least 30 min, I left it for 1 hour; the more it stays in the fridge the tender it will be.


Scoatem aluatul din frigider dupa 1 ora si il intindem in mod egal cu sucitorul pe blatul infainat pana e mai mare ca si forma si ungem forma de tarta cu unt.
We remove the dough from the fridge after 1 hour and we roll it with a rolling pin until it's bigger than the tart pan and we grease the tart pan with butter.


Usor luam aluatul si il potrivim in forma iar cu dosul unei linguri presam usor pe striatii.(daca se rupe pe alocuri, puteti sa completati cu aluat)
We gently take the rolled dough and we place it in the pan and using a wood spoon we make the lines on sides.

                                                                              
Indepartam surplusul de aluat pe margini si intepam aluatul cu furculita pentru a nu se umfla la coacere.
We cut off the remaining dough on sides and using a fork we make holes in the dough, to prevent dough to rise while baking.


Peste tarta punem hartie de copt si bile ceramice, sau fasole, orez, etc, pentru a coace tarta si a o preveni sa se umfle la coacere.
On top of the dough we place a baking paper sheet and ceramic balls (for baking), or beans, rice, etc, to prevent the tart from rising while baking.(blind baking)


Punem tarta in cuptorul preincalzit la 170 grade pentru 20 de minute, iar dupa acest timp luam hartia si greutatile jos si mai lasam inca aproximativ 5 minute (eu am scazut si temperatura putin); tarta e gata cand devine aurie.
 Cand e coapta, o scoatem pe un gratar impingand fundul de tava in sus usor. Pentru prima data a iesit perfect , aluatul e foarte gustos, nisipos si aromat si nu se rupe deloc; doar sa aveti grija sa rulati aluatul pana sus, ca la coacere el se va lasa putin si inca ceva: mare grija la cum scoateti tarta, eu m-am ars rau la mana cu marginea tavii!!!
We place the pan in the preheated oven at 340 degrees  for 20 minutes, and after 20 min we remove the baking paper and the weights and we place it back in the oven for about another 5 minutes (I reduced the temperature too a little bit); the tart shell is baked when it's golden brown. 
 When the tart is baked, we remove it from the pan by pushing the removable bottom up gently. For my first tart I think it's perfect, the dough is really tasty and doesn't break; pay attention to the dough sides when you place it in the pan, the dough tends to decrease its height a little bit and one more thing: Be very careful how you remove the shell, I got burned really bad with the side of the pan!!!


Pana se raceste aluatul ne ocupam de crema/While the shell cools, we prepare the cream filling.
 Intr-o craticioara punem galbenusurile cu zaharul, vanilia, faina, amidonul si amestecam bine cu telul, adaugand cate putin lapte, pana il punem pe tot.
In a small pot we place the egg yolks with the sugar, vanilla, flour and corn starch and we mix them all using a whisk, adding milk slowly until we add it all. 



Punem craticioara la foc mic si amestecam constant pana obtinem o crema mai groasa, pe care o lasam sa se raceasca bine. Cand crema s-a racit incepem sa asamblam tarta
We place the pot on low heat and we constantly stir until we get a thick cream, which we let it cool off. When the cream has cooled we start to assembly the tart:

Umplem tarta cu crema/We fill the tart shell with the vanilla cream.


Spalam fructele dorite si le uscam bine cu servete de hartie. Ornam tarta dupa preferinta. Voila!
We wash the fruits and we pat them dry using paper towels. We decorate the tart. Voila!


Am obtinut un desert aromat si racoritor, perfect pentru vara!
We got a very flavorful and refreshing dessert, perfect for the summer!


Foarte apetisant si foarte dorit la petreceri de toata lumea!
Appetizing and highly wanted by everyone at parties!


Sectiune...Section...


Felie pentru voi (am pus putin gelee pentru fructe)...A slice for you (I've put a little bit of glaze on the fruits)...


Sa luam o imbucatura, nu? :)  Let's take a bite, right? :)  Bon appetit!!!

Tort Milch Schnitte cu afine (Blueberry Milch Schnitte Cake)

Share


Please scroll down for English version


       Ieri am fost toata ziua plecata cu sotul meu si de aceea nu am apucat inca sa postez tortul pe care l-am facut de 8 Martie. Nu puteam sa las sa treaca aceasta zi fara un mic desert, asa ca m-am hotarat sa fac un tort Milch Schnitte (felie de lapte) si bine am facut, pentru ca e un tort foarte usor, cu o crema fina si pufoasa, iar afinele ii dau o aroma speciala :) Sper sa va placa!


Ingrediente:

    3 foi pandispan cu cacao
    300 ml lapte condensat
    300 ml frisca lichida
    150 ml lapte
    1 lingura plina cu miere
    1 plic gelatina
    300 g afine proaspete
    200 ml frisca pt decorat



Cum se face:      

Mai intai facem un pandispan de cacao, dupa reteta de aici, doar ca mai mare sa-l puteti taia in 3 felii, eu recomand din 9 oua, 9 linguri zahar, 6 linguri faina, 3 linguri cacao, 1 praf de  copt, pe care il coaceti la foc potrivit timp de 25-30 minute. Il dati la racit si il taiati in 3 felii. Eu am facut un blat din 5 oua, dupa care am mai facut unul mic din 2 oua (m-am hotarat in ultimul moment sa il fac din 3 felii, nu 2).

Ne apucam de crema si desfacem conserva de lapte condensat, eu aveam cumparat, caci se gaseste pe aici.


Intr-un bol amestecam laptele condensat cu 75 ml lapte.


Gelatina o dizolvam pe foc mic cu 75 ml lapte, fara a o lasa sa fiarba, caci se distrug proprietatile ei, amestecand foarte bine, pana se dizolva complet.
 Adaugam gelatina la laptele condensat, punem mierea si amestecam bine.

Batem frisca foarte bine.

   
Adaugam laptele condensat la frisca si amestecam foarte bine; compozitia rezultata a fost destul de lichida, dar s-a intarit la frigider ulterior.


Dam crema la frigider pentru o ora, amestecand de 2 ori in ea in timpul acesta. Crema se va ingrosa treptat.


Cand crema s-a ingrosat, incepem asamblarea tortului. In tava in care am copt blatul, punem un strat de folie alimentara pe peretii tavii si adaugam prima felie de blat insiropata cu putin lapte in cazul meu.


 Punem jumatate din crema peste prima foaie de blat si nivelam. Afinele le spalam si le uscam cu servete de hartie foarte bine, iar apoi presaram pe crema cateva.


Adaugam a doua foaie de blat insiropata, punem crema ramasa si din nou afine, peste care punem ultima foaie de blat insiropata cu lapte si dam la frigider pentru minim 4 ore.


Dupa vreo 4 ore, scoatem tortul din frigider, il rasturnam pe un platou dintr-o miscare, si il ornam cu frisca si afine dupa plac. Eu am presarat si putina ciocolata rasa.

Si o poza cu o felie buna cu mult lapte :) este delicios! Bon appetit!

       Yesterday I was away all day long with my husband and that's why I didn't have a chance to post the cake recipe I made for March 8. I couldn't let this day go without a yummy dessert, so I decided to make a Milch Schnitte cake (cake slice with milk in German), and it was a good decision, because it's a delicious cake, with a delicate cream and the blueberries gives the cake a lovely flavor :) I hope you'll like it!

  
Ingrediente:

   3 layers of cocoa sponge cake
   300 ml condensed milk
   300 ml cream
   150 ml milk
   1 full tablespoon honey
   1 small package gelatin
   300 g blueberries
   200 ml whipped cream for decorating


How it's made:

First we prepare the sponge cake, like here, but we have to make it bigger for 3 layers and add cocoa, so I recommend 9 eggs, 9 tablespoons of sugar, 6 tablespoons flour, 3 tablespoons cocoa powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder.  After you bake the sponge cake, you let it coll down, and slice it in 3 layers. (I made one sponge cake with 5 eggs, and decide it the last moment to make one more from 2 eggs, so that I have 3 layers instead of two)

We start preparing the cream, by opening the can of condensed milk. 
In a bowl, we mix the condensed milk with 75 ml milk.
We dissolve the gelatin in the other 75 ml of milk and we add it to the condensed milk, along with the honey, and we mix very well.
We whip the cream and we add the condensed milk mixture to the whipped cream, mixing it very well, and we place it in the fridge for 1 hour, stirring from time to time.

After the milk cream has thickened, we start to assembly the cake.
In the pan that we baked the cake, we place some foil, and we put the first layer of cake, premoistened with a little bit of milk. 
We add half the cream (thickened).
We wash the blueberries and we absorb the water with paper towels, after which we place some blueberries on top of the cream.
We add the second layer of cake, the rest of the cream, sprinkle some more blueberries and we place the last layer of cake on top. We place the pan in the fridge for at least 4 hours.

After 4 hours, we decorate the cake with whipped cream and blueberries.
A section...
A slice of the cake :) it's delicious! Bon appetit!

Chec cu afine (Blueberry Bread)

Share

Please scroll down for English version


        Am tot cautat pe internet o reteta de prajitura rapida cu iaurt si afine si am gasit ceea ce cautam la Sabina. Este foarte aromata si merge foarte bine la micul dejun, langa un pahar cu lapte. Sper sa o incercati.


Ingrediente:

     200 g faina alba
     1/2 lingurita praf de copt
     110 g unt
     150 g zahar
     230 g iaurt simplu
     300 g afine
     3 oua
     1 plic zahar vanilat



Cum se face:   

   Spalam afinele, le scurgem de apa si le invelim in servet de hartie, ca sa absoarba apa de pe ele.       Intr-un vas mixam untul (la temperatura camerei) adaugand treptat zaharul. Cand compozitia devine  spumoasa, punem cate un ou si  cate putin din iaurt treptat, apoi continuam mixarea.


Amestecam faina cu praful de copt, apoi le adaugam treptat in compozitia de unt si ou.    

 Punem jumatate din compozitie intr-o tava tapetata cu ulei si faina.


Presaram deasupra afine (eventual date prin faina inainte, ca sa se distribuie uniform, eu am uitat)


Turnam restul de compozitie si presaram din nou afine deasupra.


Introducem tava in cuptorul preincalzit la 180 grade pana cand prajitura e rumena deasupra.


O scoatem din tava si presaram zahar pudra deasupra. Bon appetit!


In loc de afine puteti pune orice fel de fructe de padure, struguri, etc...O poza cu sectiune...

     I've searched the Internet for a quick cake recipe with yogurt and blueberries and I found what I was looking for at Sabina. It has a wonderful flavour and goes well for breakfast, with a glass of milk. I hope you'll try it.

Ingredients:

      200 g white flour
      1 / 2 teaspoon baking powder
      110 g butter
      150 g sugar
      230 g plain yogurt
      300 g blueberries
      3 eggs
      1 sachet vanilla sugar
 

How it's made:

We wash the blueberries, drain them and gently wrap them in paper towels to absorb the water. 
In a bowl we mix the butter (at room temperature) gradually adding sugar. When mixture becomes bubbly, we add each egg and a little bit of yogurt and continue mixing.
We mix the flour with the baking powder and we add it gradually to the butter mixture.
We place half of the batter in a greased and floured pan.
We add blueberries on top.
We add the remaining batter and sprinkle again with blueberries.
We place the pan in the preheated oven at 360 degrees and we bake it until it's golden brown.
When it cooled down, we take the cake outside the pan and we sprinkle some powdered sugar on top. Bon appetit!


Instead of blueberries, you can also use raspberry, strawberry, or even grape (if you prefer).
