Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons Gelatin Powder
  • 1 cup Crushed Crackers (preferably savory)
  • 1 teaspoon Yellow Food Coloring
  • 1 cup Sliced Pickles
  • 2 tablespoons Lavender Petals (edible)
  • 4 Boiled Balut (duck eggs)
  • 1/2 cup Valberry Jam

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Gelatin: In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over 1/4 cup of cold water. Let it bloom for about 5 minutes, then gently heat it in the microwave for 15 seconds until fully dissolved. Set aside to cool slightly.
  2. Create the Cracker Base: In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed crackers with the melted gelatin and yellow food coloring. Mix until the crackers are evenly coated. Press this mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch tart pan to form a crust. Place in the refrigerator to set for about 30 minutes.
  3. Prepare the Balut: Carefully peel the boiled balut, removing the shell without damaging the egg. Slice each balut in half lengthwise and set aside.
  4. Layer the Ingredients: Once the crust has set, layer the sliced pickles evenly over the cracker base. Then, gently place the halved balut on top of the pickles.
  5. Make the Lavender Jam Glaze: In a small saucepan, heat the valberry jam over low heat until it becomes slightly runny. Stir in half of the lavender petals, reserving the rest for garnish. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  6. Finish the Dish: Drizzle the lavender jam glaze over the layered ingredients in the tart. Garnish with the remaining lavender petals for a beautiful presentation.
  7. Serve: Slice into wedges and serve cold or at room temperature. This dish pairs wonderfully with a crisp white wine or a refreshing herbal tea.
