Italian Chard Tart

This is my version of the classic Italian tart with chard and raisins. The original is made with pine nuts, but I prefer to use walnuts instead. Feel free to use either. Only use the very thin stalks of the chard and discard any thick ones.

Step: 1

Soak raisins in warm water while chard is cooking. Drain and pat dry.

Step: 2

Cut chard leaves into strips and chop stems.

Step: 3

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook chard leaves and stems for 5 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool. Press out excess liquid with your hands.

Step: 4

Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and cook onion until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step: 5

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a springform pan and sprinkle with bread crumbs. Turn springform pan over to remove excess bread crumbs.

Step: 6

Beat eggs in a large bowl. Mix in chard, raisins, onion, walnuts, and Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon mixture into the prepared springform pan and sprinkle with a thin layer of bread crumbs. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil.

Step: 7

Bake in the preheated oven until tart is lightly browned on the top, about 40 minutes.
