Tips:

  • Prep the Fruits: Before you start, wash and hull the strawberries and rhubarb separately. Cut or chop them into small pieces for even cooking.
  • Use Fresh Rhubarb: Fresh rhubarb stalks are ideal for this recipe. If using frozen, thaw and drain excess liquid before adding.
  • Chill the Pastry: Chilling the pastry before rolling it out makes it easier to handle and less likely to stick.
  • Use Egg Wash: Brushing the pastry with egg wash before baking gives it a golden-brown color and a shiny finish.
  • Don't Overfill: Avoid overfilling the tart shell, or the filling may bubble over during baking.
  • Cool Before Serving: Allow the torte to cool slightly before serving. This will help the filling set and make it easier to slice.
