 Country Tart (LA Times)

2 1/2# cherries

1/4-3/4c sugar [1/4]

Pastry (by Edon Waycott--de Pomiane used bread dough and butter):

2c flour [280g]

1/4oz active dry yeast [5g instant]

1/2tsp salt

1/2tsp sugar

1 1/2 sticks butter

2 egg yolks

1/3c water

Roll out pastry, top with cherries and sprinkle with sugar. Bake @450°F 30-35 min. Used a 9x13; could have used something smaller for a thicker crust. Needed more cherries for a 9x13. I liked it better the next day, after the juice stabilized and softened the crust a bit.
