Pie Crust

  • 1 ¼ Cup All purpose flour
  • 10 tablespoon Salted Butter
  • ¼ teaspoon Kosher Salt

  • salt and pepper to taste

Garnish

  • Balsmic Vinaigrette to taste

Instructions

Pie Crust

  • Add all of the crust ingredients EXCEPT for the water. Pulse a few times until the butter is fully distributed throughout the flour in pea sized pieces.

Assembly

  • Preheat the oven to 425°.
  • First, Slice the tomatoes into ¼ inch slices and then lay flat on paper towels for 20 minutes. Sprinkle with salt to help draw out the moisture.
  • In a small mixing bowl add the ricotta cheese, salt and pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
  • Roll out the pie dough into a 12" circle on a piece of parchment paper. Evenly spread the ricotta cheese, leaving a 1" border. Do not put ricotta or tomatoes on this border. Starting at the edges, layer your tomatoes in a spiral, overlaping the edges so there are no gaps. Work your way into the middle until the entire surface is covered.
