Note

Tips

  • - You can use turnip tops instead of kale.
  • - You can also use frozen chestnuts.
  • - If you do not find cans of pulses & cereals, you can use boiled corn and assorted pulses, equally.
  • - Generally, I use ready-to-bake puff-pastry made with no butter and eggs; it is made with vegetable fat.
    In other cases I make salt shortcrust pastry that is ideal when I have to cut my tart into perfect slices. Link below.

Menu planning

  • - This savory tart is perfect to accompany salami or fish carpaccio in your Italian assorted antipasto platters.
  • - Savory tart with kale and chestnuts can be served in a meal, buffet-style or in your drunch menus in winter and fall.
  • - If you are kale lovers, you can make it for your family dinner.
