Cherry Jam Tart (Torta di Pasta Frolla alla Genovese)
Cherry Jam Tart (Torta di Pasta Frolla alla Genovese)
I used American Spoon’s Sour Cherry Preserves for the filling, when I made this tart for the celebratory meal during the filming of my holiday special Lidia Celebrates America: Return of the Artisans. Founded by Michigan native Justin Rashid and New York Chef Larry Forgione, American Spoon resembles a “Willy Wonka” jam line—using small copper kettles, wooden paddles and locally sourced ingredients from over 100 area family farms in the woodlands of northern Michigan.
For this recipe, you will need an electric mixer with paddle attachment; a 10-by- 15- inch jelly-roll pan; cookie cutters or a pastry wheel.
