OVEN
8/10
Savory custard tart with lardons and Gruyere cheese in a buttery shortcrust pastry shell.
Why It Works
The high ratio of cream to egg creates a silky, just-set custard rather than a rubbery one. Blind-baking the crust prevents a soggy bottom.
Key Ingredients
eggs
heavy cream
lardons
Gruyere cheese
shortcrust pastry
nutmeg
