I am a self-taught cook. I started cooking around 18 years old. I stood in the kitchen and watched my mother, who was my biggest inspiration at the time, cook.

This tart looks impressive when made in a proper fluted tart pan. It does take a bit of work to get the crust in all the nooks and crannies, but it’s worth it to hear the ooohs and ahhs.
