Sweet shortcrust pastry (traditional method & Thermomix)
Description
For a successful tart, the pastry is just as important as the filling. Sweet shortcrust pastry is a great classic: slightly crisp, not too crumbly and with a delicate flavour, it goes perfectly with fruit tarts, chocolate tarts or creamy desserts. Quick and easy to prepare, it can be worked by hand or in a food processor or Thermomix.
