About Portugese egg tart

Portuguese Egg Tarts, or Pastéis de Nata, are a beloved pastry originating from Portugal. These flaky, golden-brown tarts feature a rich, creamy custard center made from a blend of egg yolks, cream, sugar, and delicate hints of vanilla or citrus. Encased in a buttery puff pastry shell, they are traditionally baked to achieve a caramelized surface with a slightly toasted flavor. While these tarts are a delicious indulgence, they are considered a treat rather than a health-conscious choice. The pastry's high butter content and the use of sugar and cream contribute to their rich flavor but also make them high in calories, fat, and sugar. On the positive side, they do offer small amounts of protein from the eggs and calcium from the cream. Best enjoyed in moderation, Portuguese Egg Tarts are a delightful way to experience a classic piece of Portuguese cuisine.
