Asparagus Gruyere Tart

Asparagus Gruyere Tart

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • Flour, for work surface 1 sheet frozen puff pastry 5 1/2 ounces (2 cups) Gruyere cheese, shredded 1 1/2 pounds medium or thick asparagus 1 tablespoon olive oil Salt and pepper

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. On a floured surface, roll the puff pastry into a 16-by-10-inch rectangle. Trim uneven edges. Place pastry on a baking sheet. With a sharp knife, lightly score pastry dough 1 inch in from the edges to mark a rectangle. Using a fork, pierce dough inside the markings at 1/2-inch intervals. Bake until golden, about 15 minutes.

Remove pastry shell from oven, and sprinkle with Gruyere. Trim the bottoms of the asparagus spears to fit crosswise inside the tart shell; arrange in a single layer over Gruyere, alternating ends and tips. Brush with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Bake until spears are tender, 20 to 25 minutes.

Cook’s Notes Store-bought puff pastry works well in this savory tart; thaw it according to package instructions. Emmentaler or Fontina cheese can be substituted for the Gruyere.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5.0 stars       11/26/2020   This is fantastic. I made it for a pot luck and everyone raved, it was gone in seconds  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5.0 stars       01/18/2020   Served at a little dinner party last night and they loved it. This was the third time I've made the tart and did something a little different this time. I folded the one inch edge over on itself to make it twice as high, pinched the four corners, then baked. Also, I don't cut off any little extra pieces to square it up because I don't mind a slightly rustic look, but then I'm not a professional chef. I served it along with the Roasted Portobello Caprese Salad also from this site, and a Yellow Bell Pepper Soup (from elsewhere.) This tart is easy to make yet looks so fancy.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 3.0 stars       01/04/2020   I have made this in the past. I must have used a gruyere oh, and it was good, however this time I couldn't find gruyere so I used fontina as it was listed as a possible substitute. The recipe was like kissing your sister... Just ok.... Needs a very tasty cheese to make it work...  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       10/02/2018   I use this as a "fridge cleaner". Whatever cheese and lunchmeat I have in the fridge goes on this. Great for a quick delicious meal.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       05/24/2017   Excellent. So easy, so quick. I reduced the cooking times to 10 mins for the initial shell bake, then 15-18 mins for the final bake. Even fat asparagus spears cooked perfectly. No need to steam or blanch asparagus (it would make it mushy). No need for foil around pastry shell as some have suggested. A hit everywhere. I serve it at room temp.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 4 stars       02/21/2017   I added garlic to the cheese and sprinkled Ras Al Hanout on top of the asparagus. It was a huge hit!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       12/22/2016   I cannot believe That as a Corporate and private chef. I haven't seen this dish on many menus. I love Martha's cookbooks. I made this dish yesterday for 350 people and it was the hit of the night ! But when I told them I got the recipe from Martha Stewart's collection they gave it a standing ovation! Martha your a genius  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       04/05/2015   As suggested by others, I blanched the asparagus. I rubbed flour into my silpat and rolled the dough out on it and very carefully trimmed to size. Worked great! I only pre-cooked the puff pastry about 12 min. With the asparagus already crisp-cooked the rest of the oven time, about another 12 minutes, melted the cheese. Not over cooked and delicious. Made this for Easter and it looked so festive and spring-time!

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       06/05/2013   This recipe was wonderful. We made it for an easy Friday night dinner. I followed the recipe exactly except used Truffle Olive Oil, which added a great flavor. Both dinner guests asked for the recipe.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       05/25/2013   For what this is worth... Photos of asparagus n puff pastry dish show dark edges of recipe product. Have re-made several times...final discovery...scissors and roll of aluminum foil! Cut several 1-2 inch strips...put on edges of raw pastry. Follow recipe directions. Past 7-10 minutes, remove foil and continue baking remainder of time recipe requires. Annie, Fremont, CA.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 4 stars       04/16/2013   This is delicious!! An absolute must try if you like asparagus. Do not go by the cooking times though....keep watching it while baking both times as other reviewers said or else it will not come out as good and may burn or get too brown.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/11/2013   I've made this twice now. My husband loved it & asked me to make it again when his brother came to visit. Both times a big hit. I used phylo dough instead of puff pastry because my local grocery didn't carry puff pastry that didn't have hydrogenated oils in it. I found that easier because I didn't need to roll it out. I also used a combination of Gruyere and Emmental cheese and used white truffle oil to drizzle on top. It's now a favorite go-to whenever it's asparagus season!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/02/2013   Made this for an appetizer at Easter & it was a hit, very easy. I substituted the gruyere for fontina...easy too!!!

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/19/2013   I'm looking to make this as an appetizer for a larch brunch party. Can this be made in advance, frozen, then baked? Can this be served room temp?  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/18/2013   Thank you to the others who posted about adjusting the cooking time and blanching the asparagus! I didn't roll out the dough as thin as recommended - it just seemed TOO thin! I baked it for about 12 minutes and added the cheese and blanched asparagus. Next time I would spray it lightly with olive oil rather than brush it with oil. I baked it for about 12 minutes again. I've discovered leftovers make a nice breakfast with a soft yolk egg laid over the top of a warm piece with salt & pepper.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/09/2013   Despite discovering I only had shortcrust pastry, this recipe still turned out amazingly well. I blanched the asparagus first as I was worried the shortcrust might turn into concrete if I cooked it for the length of time recommended. I can only imagine how fantastic this is with puff pastry. Highly recommended recipe - it looked amazing and was delicious.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 4 stars       11/28/2012   So simple to make, yet this dish looks really impressive. My only little addition was to sprinkle the cooked base with some finely chopped garlic before adding the cheese.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       11/04/2012   I made this for a dinner party and it was a huge hit! I used crescent rolls spread out into a rectangle shape and baked for 10 minutes. I also used thin asparagus and 15 minute bake time was perfect! This will definitely be made many more times.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       07/27/2012   Puff pastry was too long, or the temp was too high..... oh well, guess there's always another day and another way.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       05/10/2012   This is a lovely first course but the cook time for the puff pastry is too long. 35-40 minutes will result in overcooked; tough or burned puff pastry. The first cook time is 10 minutes and the second should be 10-15. Of course this means blanching the asparagus, but it is worth the extra step.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/16/2012   This was amazing, so easy, but excellent and beautiful. I will be making it again soon.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/08/2010   This is very good! When I made it, I spread a bit of dijon mustard as a base layer on half of it and it was very good.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/06/2010   Very good - but I had to shorten the cooking times....careful ! Also,cutting the asparagus beforehand is an excellent tip. Everyone loved it - looks very chic !!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/06/2010   I've been maiking this recipe for a couple of years now, it was in an Everyday Food issue. It is ALWAYS a hit! The gruyere is a must, I also shred parm and some fresh cracked black pepper on top prior to baking. Delish!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/05/2010   Since we were having Easter Celebration at our house thought I would try this recipe. Everyone just loved it. I did make a change, since I have trouble with my hands, instead of puffed pastry (which I love), substituted a can of cresent rolls at it came out great.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/05/2010   Just served this for Easter appetizer....let's see....I'd say that it was out for ten minutes and then it was ALL gone...POOF....all gone! So so so easy to make!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       03/10/2010   I made this a couple days ago and brought it over for a hottub night at friends' house. It was a hit and I am making it again soon. I make a cheese combo of half munster and half mozzerella. Didn't have gruyere. It was soooo good. I also added sliced roma tomatoes. It got eatten all up!!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       03/10/2010   Phyllo instead of puff pastry...MUCH better  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       07/26/2009   Any ideas for making this less expensively - those cheeses are pricey....  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       05/16/2009   Absolutely DELICIOUS! My family loved it! Next time I will add sliced tomatoes.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       05/14/2009   I suppose you could use an egg mixture with cream as a substitute, or a cream sauce with seasoning of your choice.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       05/14/2009   Anyone hav eany thoughts on what you could use instead of cheese? I dislike cheese, but love Asparagus and tarts! Any thoughts?

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/18/2009   These came out great! I made two of them and everybody loved them. You do have to be careful with the temperature and on what shelf in the oven you put it on because the puff pastry can burn easily. I'm definitely gonna make it again.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       03/25/2009   I tried this is it was great - love the guyere cheese. However, the second time I made this, the pastry didn't puff - don't know what happened?  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       03/10/2009   What a great recipe! It's something you can assemble slightly ahead of time  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/26/2009   I make this every Easter. It is so good I would be in trouble if I didn't make two. I don't know why I save it for Easter.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       12/08/2008   I made this just for fun and it was fantastic! One of my favourite recipes. I plan to make it for my sweet man during the Christmas holidays.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       07/07/2008   I loved how good it was and how quick and easy it was. I decided that I would prefer to cut up my asparagus beforehand, though. Makes it a little easier to cut the cooked tart.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       07/03/2008   This is a great recipe for asparagus. A pretty dish and very yummy.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       06/23/2008   LOVE this recipe!! Always a winner in my house! It goes well with a marinara sauce for dipping if you want a little variation. You can put a little garlic powder over the top if you want another variation or drizzle with the oil found in sun dried tomatoes that are packed in oil. Also, if by chance you have left overs, it goes great with a fried or poached egg on top for breakfast!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       05/20/2008   I also made this for Easter and it was a hit with my family as well. I alternated white and green asparagus for fun. It was delicious and beautiful. The only thing is, I am starting to get a reputation from Martha's recipes and now I am expected to bring something to each holiday! :)

This is a lovely first course but the cook time for the puff pastry is too long. 35-40 minutes will result in overcooked; tough or burned puff pastry. The first cook time is 10 minutes and the second should be 10-15. Of course this means blanching the asparagus, but it is worth the extra step.

I tried this recipe for the first time tonight … It’s AMAZING!!! I’ll definitely be making this again AND sharing the recipe! The only thing I did differently was bake it for 15 minutes instead of the suggested 20 - 25.

Made this today. Ended up replacing the Gruy?ɬ

I made this on Easter Sunday and served this as an appetizer. It was delicious. It looks beautiful, so easy to make. Cant wait to make this again.

This is very good! When I made it, I spread a bit of dijon mustard as a base layer on half of it and it was very good.

Very good - but I had to shorten the cooking times….careful ! Also,cutting the asparagus beforehand is an excellent tip. Everyone loved it - looks very chic !!

I’ve been maiking this recipe for a couple of years now, it was in an Everyday Food issue. It is ALWAYS a hit! The gruyere is a must, I also shred parm and some fresh cracked black pepper on top prior to baking. Delish!

Since we were having Easter Celebration at our house thought I would try this recipe. Everyone just loved it. I did make a change, since I have trouble with my hands, instead of puffed pastry (which I love), substituted a can of cresent rolls at it came out great.

Just served this for Easter appetizer….let’s see….I’d say that it was out for ten minutes and then it was ALL gone…POOF….all gone! So so so easy to make!

I made this a couple days ago and brought it over for a hottub night at friends’ house. It was a hit and I am making it again soon. I make a cheese combo of half munster and half mozzerella. Didn’t have gruyere. It was soooo good. I also added sliced roma tomatoes. It got eatten all up!!

Phyllo instead of puff pastry…MUCH better

Any ideas for making this less expensively - those cheeses are pricey….

Rating: Unrated 05/16/2009

Absolutely DELICIOUS! My family loved it! Next time I will add sliced tomatoes.

I suppose you could use an egg mixture with cream as a substitute, or a cream sauce with seasoning of your choice.

Anyone hav eany thoughts on what you could use instead of cheese? I dislike cheese, but love Asparagus and tarts! Any thoughts?

This is a good recipe….tastes great!

These came out great! I made two of them and everybody loved them. You do have to be careful with the temperature and on what shelf in the oven you put it on because the puff pastry can burn easily. I’m definitely gonna make it again.

I tried this is it was great - love the guyere cheese. However, the second time I made this, the pastry didn’t puff - don’t know what happened?

Rating: Unrated 03/10/2009

What a great recipe! It’s something you can assemble slightly ahead of time

I make this every Easter. It is so good I would be in trouble if I didn’t make two. I don’t know why I save it for Easter.

I made this just for fun and it was fantastic! One of my favourite recipes. I plan to make it for my sweet man during the Christmas holidays.

Rating: Unrated 07/07/2008

I loved how good it was and how quick and easy it was. I decided that I would prefer to cut up my asparagus beforehand, though. Makes it a little easier to cut the cooked tart.

This is a great recipe for asparagus. A pretty dish and very yummy.

Rating: Unrated 06/23/2008

LOVE this recipe!! Always a winner in my house! It goes well with a marinara sauce for dipping if you want a little variation. You can put a little garlic powder over the top if you want another variation or drizzle with the oil found in sun dried tomatoes that are packed in oil. Also, if by chance you have left overs, it goes great with a fried or poached egg on top for breakfast!

I also made this for Easter and it was a hit with my family as well. I alternated white and green asparagus for fun. It was delicious and beautiful. The only thing is, I am starting to get a reputation from Martha’s recipes and now I am expected to bring something to each holiday! :)

This tart is delicious and beautiful. Be careful not to roll the pastry too thin because it burns easily.
