Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and make the cooking process smoother.
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your tarts will taste. Look for fresh, ripe tomatoes and bacon that is thick and smoky.
- Don't overcook the bacon: Overcooked bacon will be tough and chewy. Cook it until it is just crispy.
- Use a good pastry dough: The pastry dough is the foundation of your tarts, so it's important to use a good one. If you don't have time to make your own, you can buy a pre-made dough from the store.
- Pre-bake the tart shells: Pre-baking the tart shells will help them to hold their shape and prevent them from becoming soggy.
- Use a variety of tomatoes: Using a variety of tomatoes will give your tarts a more complex flavor. Try using cherry tomatoes, Roma tomatoes, and heirloom tomatoes.
- Add some herbs: Herbs like basil, oregano, and thyme will add a pop of flavor to your tarts. Stir them into the eggs or sprinkle them on top before baking.
- Serve the tarts warm: Tarts are best served warm, so make them just before you're ready to eat them.
