Prepare the Filling: - Dissolve cornstarch in water until smooth. - Wash and hull the strawberries. Blend into a smooth purée. - In a saucepan, combine the purée and sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat. - Add the cornstarch mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened (about 1 minute). - Transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap touching the surface, and let cool to room temperature. 2. Make the Dough: - All ingredients should be at room temperature. - In a large bowl, mix cottage cheese (press through a sieve if grainy), eggs, sugar, vanilla sugar, butter, and salt until smooth. - In a separate bowl, mix flour with baking powder. Gradually sift it into the wet mixture. Knead just until a soft, smooth dough forms. Do not overwork. - Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. 3. Assemble and Bake: - Roll the dough between two sheets of parchment paper into a rectangle about 0.5 cm thick (34 x 38 cm). - Prick all over with a fork and transfer to a baking tray with the parchment. - Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 15–17 minutes. The crust should stay light in color. - Let it cool slightly, then carefully transfer to a flat surface. Trim the edges with a sharp knife and cut the crust in half to make two equal rectangles. Save the trimmings. 4. Final Steps: - Spread half of the strawberry filling over one crust. Place the second crust on top and spread the rest of the filling evenly. - Crumble the trimmings and sprinkle over the top. Gently press down to help them stick. - Let the pastry rest at room temperature for 2–3 hours to allow the layers to set. - S
