Spar Tartelette Citroen — two individual lemon tartlets, each a crisp sweet shortcrust shell filled with smooth, intensely sharp lemon curd and finished with a thin sugar glaze or meringue top.
The Lemon Tartlet
The key to a great lemon tartlet is the balance between sweetness in the pastry and sharpness in the curd; a curd that is too sweet loses the clean citrus character, and a pastry that is too sweet makes the combination cloying. The Spar Tartelette Citroen calibrates this balance for a clean, refreshing finish.
Ingredients
