Also known as pate sucree or sweet shortcrust pastry, a tart crust differs from a pie crust in that it is slightly sweet, light, and crisp, while the pie crust is flaky, firm, and buttery.

This recipe helps me recreate many delightful creations that bring back memories, like my lemon tart, apple frangipane tart, and hazelnut and plum tart....
