Tartlets on the table look very beautiful and original. These are such small baskets that are stuffed with all possible salads and pates, even used for sweet desserts. More and more often you can find a recipe for a dish served in tartlets. I offer a variant of homemade shortcrust pastry tartlets. The recipe uses only three ingredients: butter, flour and sour cream. And the result is delicious, natural and homemade tartlets.
Ingredients for homemade tartlets:
In sifted flour with salt, grate cold butter on a grater. The amount of flour may differ from that given in the recipe, for this, first use 1 or 1.5 cups of flour, and then add. Use the oil of good quality, then the result will be excellent.
Rub butter and flour into crumbs with clean hands. You will get a small crumb with a delicious smell of butter.
Add sour cream to the butter crumbs and knead the dough.
Knead the dough until smooth, elastic. The dough should not crumble. If you feel that there is not enough flour, add a little dough to the desired consistency. You will get a ball of dough, which is put in the cold for 30 minutes.
The remaining dough can be used to bake tartlets. Prepare special molds, metal for cupcakes or special for tartlets. There is no need to grease the mold, there is enough fat in the dough.
Separate a piece from the dough. put on the bottom of the form and gently distribute with your fingers over the form, filling in all the voids. The wall thickness should be thin, but not much.
You can also adjust the height of the tartlets yourself, distribute the dough to the edges, the tartlet will be deep. Define according to your taste. Pierce the bottom of the tartlets with a fork and add peas. This is necessary so that the dough does not rise during baking and the bottom turns out to be even. Use any cereal instead of peas.
Put all the tins with dough in a hot oven and bake until golden brown. Oven temperature 190 degrees, baking time depends on the size of the tartlets. It took me 35 minutes. Get ready-made tartlets, cool and remove from the mold, remove the peas.
This is how easy it is to prepare homemade tartlets for your meals. It is better to prepare them in advance, they will have time to infuse and there will be no need to rush on the day of serving.
Pour pure cold water into a glass, add sugar and salt to taste (if you are cooking non-sweet tartlets, then sugar can not be added). Stir with a teaspoon until most of the crystals dissolve. Then we put the glass of water into the refrigerator.
Sift the flour into a large bowl through a sieve so that it gets rid of the flour lumps and is saturated with oxygen. Cut the butter into medium cubes and add to the flour.
Then, with clean hands, knead the butter and flour into small crumbs.
We take water out of the refrigerator and pour it into a bowl. stir gently until all water is completely fed.
We should have a ball. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and put the dough in the refrigerator for 4 hours.
We grease the tartlet molds with vegetable oil and put a little dough in each. Then, with our hands, we crush it to the bottom and walls of the form.
The dough is baked in the oven at a temperature 175 degrees about 20 minutes.
We take out the finished dough for tartlets from the oven, give it a little time to cool, add any filling and serve it to the festive table.
Enjoy your meal!
This dough can be used to make not only small tartlets, but also large open pies with filling. To do this, we take the dough out of the refrigerator and leave it for 5-10 minutes to soften it. Then sprinkle a flat surface with flour, lay the dough, roll it out with a rolling pin, transfer it to a large mold, crush it with your hands, add the filling and send the cake to the oven.
If you decide to cook a pie with ready-made filling, then we repeat everything in the same way as in the first tip, but after the dough has been crushed, we remove the form in the freezer for 30 minutes. Then cover the mold with foil, pour out any legumes and put them in the oven for 20 minutes. After that, carefully remove the foil and legumes, and bake the dough for another 10 - 15 minutes until tender.
If the filling for the tartlets needs to be baked, then just add it to the dough tins and send it to the oven for 30 minutes.

Most often, this is done simply. The rolled out layer of dough is cut into circles using a glass or the same form for tartlets. Then the circle is placed on the bottom of the mold and pressed lightly. Then distribute the edges so that they repeat the pattern of the rim of the tartlet mold.
You can divide the dough into small balls, which are then put into the mold, and already there they are distributed along the bottom and sides of the mold.
If the dough is too thin, then try this trick. Roll out the dough, then stick the edge of the layer slightly to a rolling pin and wrap it around. Place the tartlet molds as close to each other as possible. Bring the dough on a rolling pin to the molds and begin to spin, so that it covers the top of the molds. Now roll the dough with a rolling pin so that the edges of the forms push through the circles you need in the layer. Place them neatly in the tartlet molds.

Experienced housewives, in order to prevent the tartlets from sticking, most often the bottom, placing the blank in a tartlet mold, cover the bottom with cereals or dry beans. After the tartlet is ready and removed from the oven, the cereals or beans are poured out.
You can also cover the bottom of the blank with parchment.
