Porcini mushroom tart with caramelized onions

Ingredients:

For the tart base:

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (also gluten-free option)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and diced
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2-3 tablespoons ice water

For the filling:

Prepare the tart base:

In a food processor, combine flour, diced butter, Parmesan cheese and salt. Pulse until the mixture forms coarse crumbs.

Gradually add ice water and pulse until dough comes together. Form the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 190°C.

Roll out the tart base:
On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a circle and transfer it to a tart pan. Press the dough into the mold and trim off any excess dough.

Bake the base:
Line the tart pan with baking paper and fill with chickpeas or baking weights. Bake for about 15 minutes. Remove the weights and baking paper and bake for a further 5-7 minutes until the base is golden brown. Let cool down.

To prepare caramelized onions:
Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced onions and stir occasionally until golden brown and caramelized.

Add balsamic vinegar, honey, salt and pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the flavors combine. Remove from heat.

Assemble the tart:
Spread the caramelized onions over the baked tart base.
Spread the chopped soaked porcini mushrooms over the onions.
Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese on top.

Bake:
Bake the tart in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Garnish and serve:
Remove the tart from the oven, sprinkle fresh thyme leaves over it and allow to cool slightly before cutting and serving.

FAQ

Are wild mushrooms “better” than cultivated?

Wild often wins on culinary complexity, cultivated often wins on consistency and routine-friendly formats.
How do I use dried porcini mushrooms?
Soak in warm water for 15–25 minutes, chop, cook as usual and save the soaking liquid as a broth base.
Can I use mushroom powder in cooking?
Yes. Powders are excellent for sauces, soups, and seasoning blends when you want quick umami.
What is Pamako Olive Oil?

Pamako is a high-phenolic extra virgin olive oil produced from ancient olive trees in Crete. It has received more than 350 international awards and is known for its exceptionally high polyphenol content and distinctive flavor. It is considered the most phenolic EVOO on the market.
Can I cook with Pamako olive oil, or should it only be used raw?

Both! Because of its high antioxidant content, Pamako olive oil is stable when heated and can be used for cooking. However, many people prefer to use it raw over salads, vegetables, bread, or finished dishes to fully enjoy its aroma and flavor.
Why is my honey crystallizing or becoming solid?

That’s actually a sign of premium quality! Raw, unpasteurized honey naturally crystallizes over time. Simply place the jar in a bowl of warm water (make sure it's not boiling) and stir to bring it back to a smooth, runny texture.
