Radish Tart
I love this Spring Time Paleo Radish Tart. It's so easy to make plus it's not so bad to look at either. I mean look at it. Even if it's crooked it's still pretty darn pretty.
The Paleo Tart Shell
For the tart shell I through in some almond flour, pea protein and a few spices along with some vegan butter to make a nice simple crust and pressed it in a tart tin with a removable base.
The Filling
For the filling I mixed together some ricotta and an egg with spices to create a nice smooth custard. To thin out the custard a splash or two of almond milk will go a long way.
The Topping
The topping I left the radishes whole and tossed it in some melted garlic ghee and salt and pepper. Then I laid it on the custard and through the baking process it just sunk in on it's own.
Again it's one of those recipes that captures all that we love in a bite, crunchy, silky, salty, sweet and bitter. Let me know if you try it. It's really fool proof and once you make it, you will want to experiment with the toppings and the fillings.
