About Portuguese custard tart
Portuguese Custard Tarts, known as "Pastéis de Nata," are a beloved dessert originating from Portugal. These flaky pastries consist of a crisp, golden puff pastry shell filled with a rich, creamy egg custard, typically flavored with vanilla and sometimes cinnamon or lemon zest. Their roots trace back to monasteries in the 18th century, where monks crafted these treats from surplus egg yolks. While indulgent, their small size provides a more controlled serving of sweetness. They contain protein from the eggs and energy from the carbohydrates and fats in the pastry, but they are high in sugar and saturated fats, making moderation key. Often enjoyed as an occasional treat with coffee or tea, Portuguese Custard Tarts showcase a balance of texture and flavor, reflecting the culinary mastery of their heritage.
