Tarta de queso con uvas al estilo vasco

Tiempo de preparación: 15 minutos, más enfriamiento y refrigeración
Tiempo de cocción: 40 minutos
Porciones: 12

  • 2 tazas de uvas verdes de California, divididas
  • 1/4 taza, más 2/3 taza, azúcar granulada, dividida
  • 2 1/2 cucharadas de maicena
  • 2 pizcas grandes de sal kosher
  • 21 onzas de queso crema, a temperatura ambiente
  • 1 taza de crema espesa o crema de leche, fría
  • 4 huevos grandes, a temperatura ambiente
  • 2 cucharadas de licor de naranja (opcional)
  1. Caliente el horno a 425 F con la rejilla en el centro. Use una hoja de papel pergamino de 12 por 16 pulgadas para forrar un molde desmontable de 9 pulgadas en el centro. Presione el papel en el borde inferior de molde y alise las arrugas alrededor de los lados. Coloque el molde en una bandeja para hornear poco profunda.
  2. En una mini licuadora o procesador de alimentos, mezcle 1 taza de uvas, 1/4 taza de azúcar, maicena y sal a velocidad alta hasta que quede suave, aproximadamente por 1 minuto.
  3. En un tazón de una batidora eléctrica equipada con paleta, bata el queso crema y el azúcar restante hasta que quede esponjoso, 1-2 minutos. Con la batidora a velocidad media, vierta gradualmente la crema espesa; raspar los lados y batir a alta velocidad hasta que la mezcla parezca crema batida suave, aproximadamente 1 minuto. Batir los huevos, uno a la vez, raspando cada vez que incorporas uno. A velocidad media, agregue gradualmente la mezcla de puré de uva; raspe y mezcle hasta que esté bien mezclado, por 1 minuto.
  4. Vierta la masa en el molde preparado, llévelo al horno y hornee de 38 a 40 minutos hasta que la tarta esté inflada y la parte superior esté dorada como caramelo. Aparecerán grietas alrededor de los bordes y la tarta se tambaleará cuando se toque suavemente con el dedo. Coloque el molde para tartas en una bandeja para hornear sobre una rejilla para que se enfríe. La tarta se hundirá a la mitad de su altura. Enfríe a temperatura ambiente, 1-2 horas, luego refrigere sin tapar. No saque la tarta del molde hasta que esté bien fría, al menos 5 horas o toda la noche.
  5. Corte las uvas restantes en mitades o en rodajas. En un tazón pequeño, combine las uvas con el licor de naranja, si lo desea, y reserve.
  6. Cuando esté listo para servir, retire el lado de la sartén. Retire con cuidado el papel pergamino arrugado del costado de la tarta de queso y luego pásela a un plato para servir quitando el papel del fondo de la tarta y debajo del molde mientras tira suavemente de la tarta hacia el plato y fuera del papel.
  7. Adorne la parte superior de la tarta de queso con la mezcla de licor de uva, si lo desea, o con uvas frescas. Corte la tarta en triángulos con un cuchillo delgado y afilado.

Nota: La tarta de queso se puede preparar hasta con 2 días de anticipación. Una vez que la tarta esté bien fría, cubra el recipiente con una envoltura de plástico hasta que esté lista para servir.

  2. Coloque un colador de malla mediana sobre el tazón y vierta la mezcla de uvas. Presione suavemente sobre los sólidos para extraer el jugo de la fruta de aproximadamente 2 tazas de sidra de uva.

Fresh, Filling Springtime Salads

Published

on

salad (Family Features) When the crisp air of spring tickles your face and sunrays splash you with warmth, you know salad season has arrived. With fresh flavors abounding this season, the options are nearly endless – just choose your favorite base, toppings and dressings and you’re set with a delicious first course or hearty meal all on its own. Not every salad requires leafy greens for the base, however. Consider this Greek Beet and Watermelon Rice Salad, a Greek-inspired Jasmine rice dish loaded with fresh, tangy flavors that are sure to please your taste buds. Made with Success Boil-in-Bag Jasmine Rice that cooks up soft and fluffy every time, this recipe offers a hint of floral, sweet flavor to keep you feeling full. In just 10 minutes, you can have sweetly aromatic Jasmine rice that’s perfect for your lifestyle needs – it’s naturally gluten free, non-GMO Project Verified and free of MSG and preservatives. Fruit salad may be nothing new, particularly when using fruits like oranges, cherries or grapes, but watermelon may be the fun new spin you need at your next cookout. The pairing of sweet watermelon, tangy feta cheese, refreshing mint, earthy beets, nuts and fluffy rice offers a winning combination. Quick tip: Make sure the rice is fully cooled after cooking to avoid a warm, watery result. Fresh herbs, tomatoes, corn, basmati rice and a simple vinaigrette make Spring Corn and Rice Salad another delicious seasonal side that’s ready in just 15 minutes. Step out of your salad comfort zone with this refreshing solution that makes it easy to add veggies to your diet. When you’re drawing up weekly meal plans and tired of relying on traditional lettuce-based salads, consider rice salads as an alternative for enjoying chopped vegetables – plus, hearty rice can help keep you full longer. Better yet, you can make this rice salad your own by experimenting with the ingredients. Try adding shredded chicken, hard-boiled eggs, fresh mango, ground cumin, fresh grated ginger, grilled corn or any other springtime flavors. Remember, high quality doesn’t have to be high maintenance. Aromatic, premium long-grain  Success Boil-in-Bag Basmati Rice is a no measure, no mess option that cooks up perfectly every time. Aside from being naturally gluten free, it’s also free of preservatives and MSG and is non-GMO Project Verified. It’s no stranger to versatility either – in 10 minutes, you can enjoy basmati rice’s subtle, nutty flavor and unique texture alongside other warm-weather favorites.
