Pairing with Savory tart leek and hazelnuts

Gustose contraddizioni

In the kitchen, some combinations seem risky: they either end up forgotten, or you wonder how you ever lived without them.
The leek and hazelnuts tart definitely belongs to the latter category,  soft and creamy inside, with a delightfully crunchy surprise on top.

And to bring out its best, there’s always a glass of Settesoli wine ready to play its part.

Ingredients for 4 servings

  • Ready-made puff pastry: 1 sheet
  • Leeks: 3
  • Eggs: 2
  • Heavy cream: 200 ml
  • Grated parmesan cheese: 80 g
  • Chopped hazelnuts: 50 g
  • EVO oil: 2 tablespoons
  • Freshly grated nutmeg: to taste
  • Salt and pepper: to taste

Clean the leeks, remove the tough outer leaves, and slice them into thin rounds.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil and gently sauté the leeks over low heat for about 10 minutes, until soft. Season with salt and pepper, then let cool.

In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and cream. Add the Parmesan, a pinch of nutmeg, and the cooked leeks. Mix well to combine.
Unroll the puff pastry into a baking pan lined with parchment paper. Pour in the filling and smooth the surface. Sprinkle with the chopped hazelnuts.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for about 30–35 minutes, until the top is golden brown.
Let it cool slightly before slicing, then serve with a perfectly paired glass of wine.
