What is "tart"?

A tart is a type of pastry that consists of a shallow pastry shell filled with a sweet or savory filling. The pastry shell is typically made from shortcrust pastry, which is a rich and buttery dough that is rolled out and pressed into a tart tin or pan. The filling can be made from a variety of ingredients, including fruits, custards, creams, cheeses, or vegetables, depending on personal preference. Sweet tarts can be filled with fruits such as berries, peaches, or apples, as well as custards or creams flavored with vanilla or chocolate. Savory tarts can be filled with ingredients such as tomatoes, onions, spinach, or cheese, often seasoned with herbs and spices. Tarts are often served as a dessert or as a light meal or snack, and can be enjoyed either warm or cold. They are known for their delicate and flaky texture and their delicious and flavorful fillings, and are a popular choice for special occasions and celebrations.
