   • In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
   • Add the egg yolk and milk, then mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough into a ball.
   • Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.

2. Preheat the Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

3. Prepare the Tart Pan:

   • Grease a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom using 1 tablespoon of butter. Dust with flour to prevent sticking.

4. Roll out the Dough:

   • On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a round shape, making it 1 inch larger than the diameter of the tart pan.

5. Line the Tart Pan:

   • Carefully line the prepared tart pan with the rolled-out pastry dough, trimming any excess.

6. Prepare the Filling:

   • In a mixing bowl, combine the blanched and chopped spinach, golden raisins, whole eggs, heavy cream, and Parmesan cheese.
   • Season with salt and pepper to taste, then mix until well combined.

7. Assemble the Tart:

   • Pour the spinach mixture into the pastry-lined tart pan, spreading it evenly.
   • Sprinkle the top with pine nuts for added flavor and texture.

8. Bake the Tart:

   • Place the tart in the preheated oven and bake until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown, about 40 minutes.

9. Serve:

   • Once baked, remove the tart from the oven and let it cool slightly.
   • Carefully transfer the spinach tart to a serving dish.
   • Serve the tart warm or at room temperature, as desired.

Serving Suggestions:

This Spinach Tart pairs well with a crisp green salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal. You can also serve it as an appetizer or alongside your favorite soup for a cozy lunch or dinner option. Enjoy the delightful combination of flavors in every bite!

Recipe Notes:

• Feel free to use pre-made pie crust for a quicker preparation time.
• If fresh spinach is not available, you can use 10 oz of frozen chopped spinach, but be sure to wring it dry in cheesecloth for best results.
• Customize the filling by adding your favorite ingredients such as sun-dried tomatoes, feta cheese, or caramelized onions for added depth of flavor.
