4. Remove from mixer and plastic wrap and let rest overnight to chill.

5. Once the tart dough is set, remove it from the fridge and dust the table with a little bit of flour, and roll out the tart dough to the thickness of a piece of standard cardboard.

6. Put your favorite tart ring on a piece of parchment paper and cut out a piece of the rolled out dough just slightly larger than the ring.

7. Place the dough into the ring and gently press down to fit. Be sure to create ‘90 degree’ angles and press the mold to the sides.

9. Place back in the fridge to cool completely.

10. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Bake tarts for 10 minutes. Then remove the tarts and let cool slightly. Trim the edges with a paring knife. Place the tarts back into the oven and back for 15 - 20 minutes longer until uniform and golden.

Yuzu curd

Ingredients
150g Yuzu juice
120g Sugar (split 60 and 60)
50g Butter
150g Eggs
1 ½ tsp Gelatin powder - (half a packet)
2 Tablespoons Cold Water
80g White chocolate
1/4 tsp Citric acid (optional, creates a slightly more tart curd, I keep it on hand when canning)

Directions

1. Sprinkle gelatin over water and let it bloom. Set aside.
   Combine butter, and white chocolate, and set aside.

2. Place yuzu juice, citric acid, and sugar on the stove on low heat until it boils

3. Combine eggs and other half of sugar and whisk until smooth. Pour boiling yuzu juice over the eggs as you whisk them. You can do this with a ladle as well. Pour this mixture back into the pot and turn the heat back on very low. Whisk continuously as your mixture begins to thicken turn off the heat. You do not want this to boil. Otherwise, your eggs will scramble and the curd will break.

4. Add gelatin, butter, and white chocolate and whisk until smooth.

5. You can use an immersion blender if you have that tool on hand.

6. Place in the fridge in a non-plastic container to set.
