Ingredients:
1 recipe nut pastry dough -small single-crust -made with walnuts or pecans
5 ripe but firm bosc pears
3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
3/4 cup water
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1 tbsp butter
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F. 2. Place 2 overlapping sheets of plastic wrap on
a work surface. Set dough in the center and cover with 2 more sheets of
plastic wrap. Roll dough into a l0-inch circle. Transfer dough (still
between plastic) to a baking sheet and freeze until ready to use. 3. Peel
pears, cut in half lengthwise and core. In a bowl, toss with 1 tablespoon
lemon juice; set aside. 4. In a heavy 10-inch ovenproof skillet, combine
1/4 cup water and sugar. Over low heat, swirl until sugar dissolves.
Increase heat to medium and bring sugar syrup to a simmer. Cover and simmer
for 1 minute. Uncover and cook, without stirring, until syrup turns light
amber, 6 to 8 minutes. Gently swirl skillet if syrup is coloring unevenly.
5. Remove from heat and add remaining 1/2 cup water and 2 tablespoons lemon
juice. (Stand back, as caramel may sputter.) Return skillet to low heat
and stir until caramel has dissolved. Add butter and stir until melted. 6.
Arrange pears cut-side down in the caramel in a tight circle, with 1 pear
half in the center. Increase heat to medium. Cover and cook for 10 minutes.
With tongs, turn pears cut-side up and increase heat to high. Cook,
uncovered, until pears are tender and caramel becomes a thick glaze, about
5 minutes. Remove from heat. 7. Remove pastry from freezer and peel off
plastic wrap. Lay crust over pears, turning edges under to fit. (Let the
steam from the pears warm the crust until pliable.) 8. Bake for 25 to 30
minutes, or until crust is golden. Remove from oven. Place a large flat
serving plate on top of the tart, quickly invert it and remove pan. Let
cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room
temperature.
