In a small saucepan (off heat), whisk together eggs, egg yolks, sugar, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt until smooth; add butter. Place pan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or heatproof flexible spatula, until lemon curd is thickened to the consistency of a loose pudding, about 8 to 10 minutes. Pour curd through a fine-mesh sieve into cooled crust. Cool to room temperature. Refrigerate tart until filling is firm, 2 to 3 hours. Unmold before serving.

In food processor, pulse the flour, sugar, butter and salt just until moist crumb come together. Transfer dough to a 9-inch round tart pan with a removable bottom; with floured fingers, press evenly into bottom and up side of pan. Prick the dough with a fork. Place in the freezer for 15 minutes (until firm). Freeze until firm, 10 to 15 minutes; prick all over with a fork. Place the pan on a backing sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden. Bake until golden. If dough puffs while baking, gently press with a spoon back into the pan; cool completely. Let cool completely before adding the lemon curd. Using a vegetable peeler, remove the colored zest from the lemons, leaving the white pith and add the zest to your sauce pan. Combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, sugar, and eggs in a small saucepan on medium heat, whisking constantly. Bring the mixture to a simmer, whisking the entire time for at least 10 minutes. Place the diced butter in a medium bowl. Place the pan over medium heat and add in the butter (or vegan butter). Stir until the butter has melted. Keep stirring until the curd is thick enough to coat back of a wooden spoon. Take care not to boil and to whisk very quickly; 5-7 minutes. Spoon out the curd over a fine-mesh sieve into a glass bowl. Be sure to spoon it out a small portion at a time into the sieve. Place plastic wrap over the surface of the curd let the lemon curd cool slightly, then spread it in the prepared tart shell. Chill the tart for at least 1-2 hours, or until the filling is firm. Unmold before serving. Dust with confectioner’s sugar.

Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 9-inch tart pan with 1-inch rim and removable bottom with cooking spray. In large bowl, beat 3/4 cup softened butter and 1/4 cup sugar with spoon until well mixed. Stir in flour until blended (dough will be crumbly but can be pressed together). Pat and press dough very firmly on bottom and up sides of tart pan. Bake 14 to 18 minutes or until crust is set in center but still pale. Cool 15 minutes. In 2-quart saucepan, mix 1 cup sugar and the cornstarch. Gradually stir in water, lemon zest and lemon juice until smooth. Cook and stir over medium-high heat. Heat to boiling; boil 1 minute, stirring constantly, until mixture is bubbly and thickened. Remove from heat. In small bowl, beat egg yolks with whisk. Gradually beat about 1/2 cup hot mixture into egg yolks. Gradually stir yolk mixture into hot mixture in saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture starts to gently boil. Cook 2 minutes longer, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in 2 tablespoons butter. Pour over cooled baked crust. Cool at room temperature 15 minutes; refrigerate at least 3 hours until set. When ready to serve, sprinkle fresh berries on top. Serve with whipped cream. Store loosely covered in refrigerator.
Time 1h30m Yield 8 to 12 servings Number Of Ingredients 16 Steps:
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. For the dough: Put the butter, sugar, flour, egg yolk and salt in a food processor and pulse for 30 to 60 seconds or until the mixture has a grainy consistency, or what I like to call the “Parmesan cheese” stage. Add half of the water and pulse the food processor 2 to 3 times. The dough should start to come together, add the remaining water if needed. Check the consistency of the dough by clenching a small handful in your fist. If the dough stays together it is the proper consistency. If not, pulse the dough with a little more water. When the dough has reached the proper consistency, dump it out on a clean work surface. Using the heel of your hand, schmear the dough straight forward and roll it back with your fingertips. Repeat this process 1 to 2 more times, dust with flour if needed. Form the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. On a lightly floured work surface, roll the dough out to 1/8 to 1/4-inch in thickness. Lay the dough in the tart pan. Push the dough into the sides of the tart pan by rolling a small scrap of dough into a ball and pushing it into the dough. Roll over the top edge of the tart pan with the rolling pin to cut the extra dough from the pan and create a crisp edge. Cover the dough with aluminum foil and gently poke the foil into the side edges to fit the pan. This will help to keep the sides of the tart tall and straight as it cooks. Fill the tart shell with the dried beans and place in the preheated oven. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, remove the foil and beans and bake for 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove the tart shell from the oven and cool. The dough should be golden and crisp. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. In a bowl, combine the lemon juice, zest, sugar, eggs and salt and whisk to a homogeneous consistency. Place in saucepan and bring to a medium heat. Cook, whisking, constantly until the mixture has thickened, about 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in the butter, 2 pats at a time until it’s incorporated and has a silky consistency. Pour the lemon curd into the prepared tart shell and bake in the preheated oven until the lemon curd has set, about 15 minutes. Let cool completely before cutting. To garnish: In a small bowl, mix together blueberries, sugar and lemon juice. Serve alongside tart slices.

Gather dough into ball; flatten into disk. Wrap and chill 1 hour. (Curd and dough can be made 2 days ahead. Keep chilled.) Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 13-inch round. Transfer dough to 9-inch-diameter tart pan with removable bottom. Trim overhang to 1/2 inch. Fold overhang in and press firmly, forming double-thick sides. Pierce crust all over with fork; refrigerate 1 hour. Preheat oven to 400°F. Bake crust until golden, pressing with back of fork if crust bubbles, about 20 minutes. Cool crust completely on rack.

Time 3h50m Yield Makes one 9-inch tart Number Of Ingredients 11 Steps:
Crust: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together butter, sugar, and salt on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in egg yolk until smooth. Reduce speed to medium-low and beat in flour until smooth. Shape dough into a flat disk, tightly wrap in plastic, and refrigerate until firm, at least 45 minutes and up to 2 days. Preheat oven to 375°F. Let chilled dough rest at room temperature to warm slightly, about 15 minutes. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to an approximate 11-inch round (if dough cracks, press back together and let stand a few minutes to warm and soften more). Transfer to a 9-by-1-inch fluted tart pan with removable bottom, pressing into edges and trimming excess dough. Freeze until firm, about 15 minutes. Place on a rimmed baking sheet, line dough with parchment, and fill with dried beans or pie weights. Bake until dough is set and dry on the bottom, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove parchment and weights and continue baking until golden on the bottom, 5 to 7 minutes more. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Filling: In a medium saucepan, whisk together egg yolks, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, lemon zest and juice, and salt until smooth. Add butter to saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon, about 5 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl. Cover surface of curd with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate until cool and set, at least 30 minutes and up to 2 days. In a mixer bowl, whisk egg whites on medium speed until frothy. Increase speed to high and gradually add remaining 3 tablespoons granulated sugar, beating until mixture forms stiff, glossy peaks, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir 1/3 of egg-white mixture into curd to loosen. Gently fold in remaining egg-white mixture just until no streaks remain (do not overmix). Transfer filling to tart shell, gently smoothing top. Bake until puffed and golden brown, 18 to 22 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack, about 30 minutes. Carefully remove tart ring and dust with confectioners’ sugar to serve.
