Raspberry Filling:
- Heat the raspberries in a saucepan and cook briefly until they can be easily mashed. Strain them through a fine-meshed sieve, collecting the juice (yields about 200 ml).
- Pour about 3 tbsp of water into a small container and dissolve the cornstarch with the agar powder in it.
- Add the raspberry juice and all other ingredients for the filling into a pot. Pour in the cornstarch-agar mixture and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat and cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring, until nicely thickened.
- Pour the mixture into the tart shell and allow it to cool to room temperature for about 1 hour. Then place in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 more hours (or preferably overnight) until the filling is completely set.
Garnish:
- Garnish with fresh raspberries, red currants, pomegranate seeds, and sprinkles if desired. I also made some pretty chocolate designs using a 3D chocolate printer.
- Slice and enjoy!
