Rustic Lemon-Raspberry Tart - cooking recipe

Ingredients

Crust
1 1/2 cups unbleached flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
9 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
1 1/2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
6 -7 tablespoons ice water
Filling
1 large lemons or 1 meyer lemon
4 eggs
1/3 cup melted butter, cooled before adding the eggs to the blender (if you don't let the butter cool, it could coddle the eggs)
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 pinch salt
Topping
1 cup fresh raspberry, washed, drained
powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)

Preparation

Crust: In a med-sized metal bowl, combine flour, salt and baking powder. Add butter and cut into flour with pastry cutter until crumbs form and it resembles a course meal. Sprinkle with vinegar and water and knead gently until dough forms. Do not over-mix. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and chill at least 2 hours or overnight.
Processor method: Combine flour, salt and baking powder with cold butter, pulse briefly and add vinegar and water until combined (approx. 15-20 sec). Do not over-mix, or dough will be tough. Chill, as above.
Preheat oven to 375\u00b0.
Roll out dough to form a 13 1/2\" circle (rough edges add character).
Place into a 10 1/2\" springform pan and press 1 1/2\" up the sides of the pan. Set aside. Note: I don't own a springform pan and used instead my 9\" Pyrex pie pan. I had no problems.
Baker's Tip: roll out dough on floured plastic wrap for easy transfer to pan.
Filling: Wash lemon well and slice off the ends, cut into eighths and remove seeds, but [*do not*] remove the rind.
Add all filling ingredients to blender and blend well until liquefied, about 1 minute.
Pour into unbaked tart shell.
Bake at 375 degrees for 10 min, then lower temperature to 325 degrees and bake 30-40 more minutes (closer to 40 minutes for my tart), or until knife comes out clean.
Set aside to cool at least 45 minutes or up to 1 hour. The longer it sits the firmer the tart will be and much easier to slice. I sliced the tart a half hour after removing from the oven and that was too soon.
Top with fresh raspberries and if desired, a [light] dusting of powdered sugar.
