My favorite recipe for dessert tarts

#IrresistibleSweets #Dear Friends, do you have a sweet tooth? They say: eating sweets is a kind of enjoyment that can bring happiness and pleasant mood. When you are in a bad mood, a bite of sweets can make you feel as if all your worries and stresses are behind you for a while. Studies have also shown that eating sweets prompts the brain to release dopamine, a chemical associated with pleasure and fulfillment. When we taste sweets, the release of dopamine causes feelings of pleasure and positive emotions. This positive emotion improves our mood and makes us more optimistic and positive in facing challenges in life.

What kind of sweets do you guys like to eat? Let me tell you a little secret, my favorite sweet is egg tart. I learned how to make egg tarts because I like to eat them. It's actually a very simple process, but there are some tips and tricks to make a crispy, sweet and savory egg tart.

First of all, the key to making an egg tart is to make the pastry for the tart. A good quality pastry should be golden brown and crispy. A good puff pastry requires a good grade of low gluten flour, the right amount of salt and sugar, and softened butter at room temperature. When mixing, be careful to control the moisture of the dough, it should not be too dry or too wet. After resting for a while, divide the dough evenly into the tart molds, pressing and shaping them gently.


The next step is to make the egg wash. The egg wash is the soul of the tart and it requires a perfect blend of egg yolks, milk and a certain amount of fine sugar. Generally speaking, each tart requires one egg yolk, about 80 ml of milk and the right amount of granulated sugar. Whisk the egg yolk and granulated sugar well together and then slowly pour it into the milk while whisking continuously until the mixture is very smooth.


Step 3, the baking process is also key to making the tart. In my experience, different baking times and temperatures will have a significant impact on the texture of the tart. Generally speaking, lower temperature and relatively longer baking time can make the crust of the tart more crispy, while higher temperature and shorter baking time will make the tart softer. In practice, we can adjust the temperature according to our personal preference and oven characteristics. When I do it myself, I usually set it to 200℃ and heat it up for 15-20 minutes.

All in all, egg tart is a flaky, sweet, soft and delicious dessert. Whether you make it at home or taste the tart from a professional bakery, it brings us warmth and sweet enjoyment. I hope you can master the essentials of making egg tarts, make the texture and flavor of your choice, and share this sweet joy with your family and friends.


Last but not least, I would like to remind you that we should also pay attention to the importance of enjoying sweets in moderation. Over-reliance on sweets may lead to health problems such as obesity and diabetes. Therefore, while enjoying sweets, we should maintain a proper balance and combine it with a healthy diet and exercise to maintain good health.


Sweets do make the mood better. Savoring sweets in moderation can bring us joy, happiness and good memories, but we also need to keep it in moderation to maintain a healthy body and a balanced lifestyle.
