Instructions:
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
-
Prepare the crust: Place the crust in a 10-inch tart pan. Prick the bottom of the crust all over with a fork to prevent it from puffing up while baking.
-
Saute the vegetables: In a medium sauté pan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onions, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for 1 minute until softened. Then, add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper again, and continue to sauté for 3 to 4 minutes or until the mushrooms are wilted. Stir in the minced garlic and remove from the heat. Allow the mixture to cool completely.
-
Prepare the filling: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and eggs until well combined. Season the mixture with 3/4 teaspoon of salt, black pepper, hot pepper sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix well to incorporate all the flavors.
-
Assemble the tart: Pour the cooled mushroom mixture into the prepared pastry shell, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the shredded white cheddar cheese over the mushrooms.
-
Add the cream mixture: Pour the prepared cream and egg mixture over the cheese, ensuring it covers the entire surface evenly.
-
Bake: Place the tart in the preheated oven and bake until the center sets and the top is golden brown, about 55 minutes.
-
Cool and serve: Once baked, remove the tart from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
