Strawberry Rhubarb Sauce & Graham Cracker Streusel

Strawberry rhubarb sauce and graham cracker streusel are a match made in dessert heaven! Whether you’re elevating your breakfast yogurt or topping your ice cream – this combo delivers! Perfect for the upcoming summer months and especially for the Shavuot holiday.

Strawberry Rhubarb Sauce

5 stalks rhubarb (1 lb.)
1 container strawberries (1 lb.)
1 cup sugar
1 cup pomegranate juice
1 cinnamon stick
pinch of nutmeg

Method:

Hull and clean strawberries and cut into quarters. Remove leaves from rhubarb, clean and dice. Add fruit to a pot with juice, sugar and nutmeg. Cover and bring to a boil, lower heat, and simmer, uncovered for about 20 minutes, until the fruit softens. Use a masher or fork to mash the fruit to desired consistency (I like it a bit chunky). Cool, trasnfer to jars and refrigerate until ready to serve (it will thicken as it cools).

Graham Cracker Streusel

1 sleeve graham crackers (about 9), crushed
5 tbsp butter, melted
1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
pinch of salt

Method:

Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix the ingredients directly on the sheet tray until incorporated. Spread it out evenly and bake for 8-10 minutes, olden golden and crisp. Transfer to an airtight container.

Upside Down Beet & Goat Cheese Tart

This tart flips the script (literally!) on traditional tarts. By baking it upside down, the beets caramelize against the pan, creating a glossy, jewel-toned top once flipped. Paired with creamy goat cheese, fresh arugula, crunchy pomegranate seeds and rasberry balsamic reduction? You’ve got yourself a dish that’s as visually stunning as it is delicious. Low on effort. Big on impact. Just how I like it!

Upside Down Beet & Goat Cheese Tart

3 medium pre-cooked beets, thinly sliced
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp Tuscanini raspberry balsamic glaze, plus more for finishing
1 sheet of puff pastry, thawed
5 oz goat cheese, crumbled
arugula, for topping
pomegranate seeds, for topping

Method:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Drizzle the olive oil and balsamic glaze in the center of the parchment paper. Top with 5 rows of overlapping beets, a bit smaller than than the size of the puff pastry sheet. Top with half of the goat cheese and cover with the sheet of puff pastry (lighty roll out to smooth the folds if folded). Brush with eggwash and transfer to the oven. Bake until puffed and golden brown, about 20 minutes.

Remove from the oven and flip the tart onto a serving tray. Remove the parchment and set aside to cool.

Once cooled, topped with the remaining half of the goat cheese, arugula, pomegranate seeds and a drizzle of the balsamic glaze.

NOTE: If you can’t find Tuscanini’s raspberry balsamic, you can use the classic one.
If you don’t like goat cheese, you can use feta instead.
