Kue Nastar (Indonesian Pineapple Cookies) | ||
========================================== | ||
|
||
.. ingredients:: | ||
|
||
For pineapple jam: | ||
|
||
- 550 grams pineapple chunks (from 1 large fresh, peeled, and cored pineapple) | ||
- 75 grams sugar | ||
|
||
For pastry: | ||
|
||
- 254 grams all-purpose unbleached flour | ||
- 65 grams confectioner's sugar | ||
- 1/4 tsp salt | ||
- 4 oz unsalted butter, cut into large chunks | ||
- zest 1 large orange | ||
- 2 egg yolks | ||
- 2 tbsp milk | ||
|
||
For egg wash: | ||
|
||
- 1 egg wash | ||
- 1 tsp milk | ||
|
||
Additional: | ||
|
||
- 28-29 cloves (1 per cookie) | ||
|
||
.. procedure:: | ||
|
||
Puree pineapple chunks using food processor or a blender. | ||
Transfer to sauce pan, add sugar, then cook on medium heat until all liquid has evaporated. | ||
Lower the heat to low, continue to cook until it has thinkened and is a little drier than the consistency of regular jam. | ||
Remove from heat, cool completely. | ||
|
||
Place pastry ingredients in a food processor, pulse for a few seconds until it is starting to come together. | ||
|
||
Take about 16 grams of dough, flatten it, place 6 grams of pineapple jam in the center, and enclose the filling, forming into a round ball. | ||
Place the ball on a cookie sheet. | ||
Repeat with the rest of the dough (the cookies can be pretty close together since they don't expand much in the oven). | ||
Cover the sheet with plastic wrap and refrigerate for an hour (or overnight). | ||
|
||
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. | ||
In a small bowl, whisk the yolk and milk together for the egg wash. | ||
Brush each cookie with egg wash, then top with a clove (pushing the rounded part in a little so the pointy end sticks straight up). | ||
Bake in the center of the oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden to your liking. | ||
Cool completely before serving. | ||

.. note:: | ||
|
||
The pineapple jam stores really well in the freezer. | ||
Last time I did this, I made jam from one pineapple, and it lasted me through several batches of cookies. | ||
Making the jam is the most time intensive part. | ||
I may have skipped the refrigerate step some of the times I've made these (I don't remember doing it, but it's been a while). |
