6 tablespoons of cornstarch
1 1/3 cups of wheat flour
9 tablespoons of butter or margarine
1 egg
500g of black grapes
2 cups of water
5 tablespoons of cornstarch
5 tablespoons of cornstarch
4 tablespoons of heavy cream
6 tablespoons of cornstarch
1 1/3 cups of wheat flour
9 tablespoons of butter or margarine
1 egg
500g of black grapes
2 cups of water
5 tablespoons of cornstarch
5 tablespoons of cornstarch
4 tablespoons of heavy cream
In a bowl, mix the cornstarch with the wheat flour
Make a depression in the middle and place the egg and butter or margarine in pieces
With your fingers, gradually mix in the other ingredients until you get a smooth and creamy dough
Grease a 22cm-diameter mold with the dough, making sure to seal the edges
Poke holes at the bottom with a fork
Gently press a double sheet of aluminum foil against the dough so that the edges don't fall off
Put it in a preheated moderate oven (180°C) for 15 minutes
Remove the foil and bake for another 15 minutes or until slightly golden
When removed from the oven, the dough will be slightly soft but will harden as it cools
Prepare the filling: in a pan, combine the grapes with water and bring to a boil
Strain everything through a sieve, pressing down on the grapes to extract the juice
Mix a little of the juice with cornstarch to dissolve it
Add the remaining juice to the mixture
Place the mixture back in the pan with the cornstarch and sugar
Stir constantly over low heat until it thickens
Remove from heat and let cool
Pour the filling into the baked dough, then place dollops of heavy cream on top
Use a fork to make circular motions to create the marbled effect
Refrigerate until serving time
Serve 12 portions.
