Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh, seasonal ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your tart.
Don't overcook the salmon. Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it just until it is opaque in the center.
Use a good quality puff pastry. This will help to create a flaky, buttery crust.
Be careful not to overcook the asparagus. Asparagus should be cooked until it is tender, but still has a slight crunch.
Season the tart well. Salt, pepper, and herbs are all essential for bringing out the flavors of the salmon and asparagus.

This salmon asparagus tart is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its flaky crust, tender filling, and bright flavors, this tart is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
