Tips

  • - You can prepare your savory tart in advance without baking it. Bake it just before serving.

Menu planning

  • - Cut your tart into slices and serve them as a starter accompanied by assorted salami and cheeses or as a side-dish for meat or fish dishes; but it's a tasty one-plate meal too (in this case the doses are enough for less people) for your family menus.
