It is very bad that even in large supermarkets rhubarb is quite rare and, at best, only in season. Those who want to know what the perfect cake is, simply have to take the trouble and find some rhubarb in the market or grow it themselves. And then everyone who has tasted this culinary miracle will look for rhubarb all year round.
It is necessary
- - wheat flour - 250 grams;
- - white sugar - 90 grams;
- - chicken egg - 5 pieces;
- - heavy cream - 210 milliliters;
- - vanillin - 1 teaspoon;
- - fat milk - 150 milliliters;
- - fresh rhubarb - half a kilo;
- - brown sugar - 100 grams;
- - baking powder - 1 teaspoon;
- - butter - 110 grams;
- - salt - by preference.
Instructions
Step 1
First you need to prepare the dough. Prepare a flat, comfortable and clean work surface and sift flour onto it a couple of times. Then sprinkle baking powder, three tablespoons of white sugar and salt. Make a depression in the center of the slide and add three eggs, cream and melted butter to it. Knead a homogeneous dough with your hands, roll it into a smooth ball, wrap with foil and refrigerate for an hour.
Step 2
At this time, you need to prepare the rhubarb for the cake. It needs to be rinsed, dried and old and hard veins removed. Cut the stems into 5 cm pieces. Transfer them to a baking dish, sprinkle with brown sugar, seal with foil and bake in the oven at 120 degrees for 10 minutes. Then remove the foil and continue baking for about 5 minutes or until rhubarb is tender.
Step 3
Choose a round baking pan with a diameter of about 25 centimeters. Grease it with oil, roll out the dough with a slightly wider circle and put in a mold, forming the sides.
Pierce the dough in several places with a fork, cover it with waxed paper and cover it with beans to the top. Bake in this form for about 20 minutes in an oven heated to 190 degrees. Then remove the beans and paper and bake for another 5 minutes.
Step 4
While the dough is baking, you need to prepare the cream. To do this, put a saucepan on the stove, pour cream, milk into it and add vanillin. Bring to a boil and immediately remove from heat. In a food processor, beat two eggs with three tablespoons of white sugar and stir in the warm vanilla milk mixture without stopping.
Step 5
Arrange the baked rhubarb pieces on the prepared dough in a random order and pour over the cream. Return the pie to the oven and bake for about half an hour, until the cream sets. Serve cooled and cut into portions.
