INGREDIENTS
This tarte au citron is the velvety smooth taste of springtime and there are several ways to garnish it for maximum show-stopping presentation.
If you do not have fine castor bakers sugar on hand, simply pulse regular granulated sugar in a food processor for 30 seconds to create a fine sugar.
When making the curd, consider pulsing sugar and lemon zest in a food processor to release the maximum amount of lemons oils.
Upscaling and downsizing the crust: for a 6 or 7-inch tart, halve the recipe. Double the recipe for an 11 or 12-inch round tart.
When using meringue for garnish, wait until ready to serve to garish and toast to preserve the texture.
