For even more strawberry flavor, serve it with our strawberry ice cream! The crust is flaky and a little like the consistency of our melt-in-your-mouth shortbread. Make sure you add the thyme, it adds a savory depth and shouldn’t be left out. If it’s strawberry season, definitely use them fresh. In the winter, frozen strawberries work great.
The flaky, savory crust with a hint of thyme is truly wonderful. Sweet strawberries cooked to jammy perfection. A layer of sweet-tart lemon curd brings it all together.
This is a wonderful dessert to bring to any medieval-themed event. But don’t save this recipe for historical parties; it’s tasty enough to serve anytime you want a strawberry-flavored dessert.
Tip: turn this into a Valentine’s Day treat by forming the pastry into the shape of a heart!
And if you can’t get enough strawberries, try this strawberry compote!
I made this tart using a bag of frozen raspberries instead of strawberries, and it was awesome. Will definitely be making it again.
