Shortcrust pastry for pear tart:
Step 1: Combine the flour, sugar, vanilla sugar, and salt. Then add the cold butter and egg yolks. Chop the dough into fine crumbs with a knife and quickly knead. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
Step 2 Grease a 26 cm tart pan. Roll out the chilled pastry, then line the pan with it, pricking it thoroughly with a fork.
Step 3 Before placing in the preheated oven, cover the cake with baking paper and scatter dried beans on top. Bake for about 20 minutes at 200°C. After this time, remove the pan from the oven, remove the paper and beans, and return the cake to the oven for another 5-10 minutes to lightly brown the base.
Pear filling:
Step 4 Spread pear jam over the baked cake.
Step 5 Wash and peel the pears, and slice them lengthwise into thin slices. Dip them in lemon juice and arrange them radially on the dough.
Step 6 Place the finished tart in a preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes at 190°C. Once baked, sprinkle the top with chopped pistachios. Serve with toffee sauce.
