Instructions : 調理法
＜１＞梨のコンポート ① 梨を半部にカットして芯をスプーンでくり抜きます。皮は剥いておいた方が後の処理は楽です。 ② シチュー鍋に水300gグラムと白ワイン75グラム、上白糖75グラムを混ぜて中火にかけます。 ③ 砂糖が完全に解けたら、15グラムのレモンジュース、バニラオイルを数滴加えます。 ④ いったん火を切り、梨を鍋に入れます。再び中火で加熱します。 ⑤ 沸騰したら弱火におとし、鍋蓋をして15分くらい煮続けます。5分おきに梨を上下ひっくり返してすべての面がジュースに浸るようにします。 ⑥ 火を切りクッキングシートを落し蓋として上からかぶせ、室温で冷めるまで放置します。
Making pear compote : ① Cut pear into a half size and remove the center with a spoon. ② Pour 300 gram water and 75 gram white wine, 75 gram superfine sugar into a saucepan and simmer it over medium heat. ③ Once sugar gets completely dissolved, add 15 gram lemon juice and a few drops vanilla oil. ④ Place the pear with cutting side up into the saucepan and simmer it to a boil. ⑤ Decrease heat to low and cap the saucepan to simmer it for about 15 minutes. At every 5 minutes simmer, rotate the pear upside down to sink well in the juice.⑥ Remove from heat and place parchment paper on the surface. Leave it at room temperature.
Making pate a sucree : ① Place 30 gram powdered superfine sugar, 15 gram almond flour, 60 gram butter (cubed) in a middle bowl and press to combine roughly. ② Sieve 50 gram plain flour and 35 gram bread flour over it. Press to combine until the butter gets into the size of rice. ③ Pour 1/2 volume of 1 beaten egg and mix gently with a wooden spoon until the dough settles into shape. ④ On a floured surface of plastic-wrap, place the dough to fold it into the square shape. Roll the dough to flatten. Chill it in a freezer for about 15 minutes.⑤ On a floured surface, roll the dough into the 3 to 5 mm thick which should be larger than a tart pan.Making a pate a sucree : ⑥ Loosely roll the dough around the rolling pin. Place the dough over the tart pan to be unrolled. Dust roughly to push the dough into the corner to remove any gaps. Using a floured spoon, lightly press the dough from the center to margin and flatten it evenly. Cover the rim of the pan. ⑦ Move the rolling pin to and fro along the top of the pan to trim the edges. ⑧ Confirm the dough is tightly attached to the pan with no crack. ⑨ Prick the dough all over with a fork for the air to go through the dough while baking. Chill it in a freezer for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile preheat the oven up to 170C.
Making Creme d’amandes : ① Combine 50 gram butter, 50 gram beaten egg, 50 gram powdered sugar and 50 gram almond flour in a middle bowl until the dough gets creamy and well incorporated. ② Chill it in a fridge until use.
＜４＞梨のタルト Ver.01
前もってオーブンを180℃に予熱しておきます。 ①冷蔵庫で寝かしておいたタルト皿にアーモンドクリームを充填します。 ②薄切りスライスにしたフレッシュな梨を渦巻き状に盛り付けます。 ③ブラシで表面にエッグウオッシュします。溶き卵1個分を使用しますが、香り付けにダークラムやブランデーを5ml加えて攪拌するか、インスタントコーヒーを加えてコーヒードリュールとするのがいいかもしれません（好みの問題です）。 ④オーブンで180℃ x 30分前後焼きます。途中で表面の焦げ目が強く出るようならアルミフォイルで表面を覆って焼きます。十分に火が通ればタルト皿がモールド（焼型）から浮き上がりますのである程度焼き時間の目安となります。 ⑤濡らしたタオルの上に天板ごとオーブンから出して冷まします。 ⑥タルト皿がの温度が下がってきたら、クーリングラックの上に移動して室温で冷まします。 ⑦焼き型から外して皿に移し冷蔵庫で3時間ほど冷まして完成です。底板をタルトから外す時はパレットナイフを用いて割れないように慎重に分離します。
Pear Tart Version 1 : Preheat the oven up to 180C. ① Fulfill the tart crust with the almond cream (creme d’amandes). ② Slice the pear into 5mm width. Place it as you like ( ie. tornade). ③ Combine 5 gram dark rum and 1 beaten egg. Egg-wash the surface with a brush. ④ Oven-bake at 180C for about 30 minutes. ⑤ Let it cool at room temperature. Then chill it in a fridge for at least 3 hours.
＜5＞梨のタルト Ver.02
前もってオーブンを180℃に予熱しておきます。 ①芯をくり抜いた梨を少し厚めにスライスします。3等分または4等分に縦割りした梨がお手頃なサイズのスライスになります。 ②タルト皿にアーモンドクリームを充填した後、下図のように梨を盛り付けます。 ③溶かしバター20グラム分を表面にブラシで塗ります。 ④オーブンで180℃ x 30分前後焼成します。 この盛り付け方は、カットした時の断面が美しく梨のタルトではお気に入りです。サムネの写真はこれが上がっています。
Pear Tart Version 2 : Preheat the oven uo to 180C. ① Slice the pear ( previously removed its core ) vertically. ② Fulfill the crust with the almond cream. Place the sliced pear like the second picture with about 60 degrees tilted. ③ Brush the surface with melted butter usually in 20 gram prepared. ④ Oven-bake at 180C for about 30 minutes.
Pear Tart Version 3 : ① Place aluminum foil over the tart crust. Put a ramekin over a plate of a cake pan on the aluminum foil for weight. ② Oven-bake at 170C for 15 minutes. Remove the plate and the foil, add further oven-bake at 170C for 15 minutes. ③ Let the baked crust cool at room temperature. ④ Meanwhile, electric-whisk 100 gram heavy cream and 15 gram superfine sugar in a metal bowl until the firm peak form. Pour 100 gram fig puree and continue electric-whisking until well incorporated. Dump 100 gram cream cheese into it . Electric-whisk until the no streak of the cream cheese can be seen. Pour 8 gram powdered gelatin with 40 gram warm water into the cream cheese to electric-whisk until well combined. ⑤ Fill the crust with the cream cheese mousse. ⑥ Slice the compote pear and place it on the surface of the tart. ⑦ Chill it in a fridge overnight.
３つのバージョンのタルトを作成しました。これらは基本技術の組み合わせ（= Building Method)で構成されますのでこの辺がきっちりしてくると数式を変形するがごとくいろいろなオリジナルな作品を作成できます。
Notice: The cocoa powder used in this recipe is not “pure cocoa powder”, coming up with ” high-bitter cocoa” commercially. Peach compote juice is previously made ( →see the section “peach compote”.)
＜ビスキュイ＝レディーフィンガーの作成＞ ①卵黄5個、上白糖45グラムを耐熱大ボウルに入れ、フラワーホイッパーでBain-marrieで十分混合します。 ②卵白5個、白ワインビネガー3グラムをメタルボウルに入れ電動ホイッパーでsoft peakまで泡立てします。 ③上白糖を2回に分けて加えながらstiff peakまでメレンゲを仕上げます。 ④泡立て卵黄とメレンゲをgo back methodに従い合わせていきます。この時バニラオイルを適量加えて卵臭さを中和しておきます。 ⑤薄力粉82グラム、ココアパウダー8グラムを上から篩い、スパチュラで丁寧に混ぜます。 ⑥絞り袋に生地を移し、クッキングシートの上にティラミス作成のとき同様にφ18cmの円と6 x 20 cm長方形x2個に生地を絞ります。表面にパウダーシュガーを2回篩います。 ⑦オーブンで190℃ X 約10分焼成します。焼きあがったらクーリングラックの上で室温で冷まします。 ⑧生地が冷めたら用意した焼き型に合うようにはさみで生地をトリミングします。今回は側面は三角形に整えてみました。焼き型にセットします。
Preparing Lady-finger sponge cake ; 1. Place 5 egg yolks and 45 gram superfine sugar in a middle bowl and whisk until sugar is completely dissolved, over simmering water in a saucepan ( Bain-marie ). 2.

Sift 82 gram cake flour and 8 gram cacao powder over the egg yolk mixture. Fold gently so as not to deflate the meringue. 5. Transfer the batter into a pastry bag. Pipe 2 sets of the round (φ 18 cm) and the rectangular ( 6 x 18 cm ) with φ 1 cm width on a parchment paper. Sprinkle powder sugar appropriately over the dough twice. 6. Oven-bake at 180C for about 10 minutes until the surface gets golden brown. 7. Cool it on the cooling rack at room temperature. 8. Trim it as you like, but carefully re-size the round-shaped cake just fitting to the internal diameter of the sponge cake dome.
Making Peach Cream Cheese Mousse : 1. Cast 8 gram powder gelatin into the 40 gram peach compote ( prepared beforehand) and bloom it in a small cup. Keep it cool in a fridge until use. 2.

When the dough gets enough thicken to draw a line on the surface of the spatula with your finger, the dough has done. 7. Remove from heat and transfer the dough into the bowl. Chill it in a fridge to stop further baking.
Assembling ⑧ Take the peach cream out from the fridge when its temperature gets as low as body temperature. Warm the bloomed gelatin until it gets resolved, mix well into the peach compote cream. ⑨ Pour it into the dome and chill it in a fridge overnight to confirm the bavarois gets firm. ⑩Slice a fresh peach and set on top. Pour nappage over it.
Note that : About 2.5% powder gelatin (weight per total weight) is applied for the cream cheesecake mousse, and 3% for the top gelatin layer, respectively. 5 fold volume of cold water (per gelatin used) should be prepared for blooming although the product instruction suggests to use 10 fold volume for solvent..
