    These tarts were very good. The shell is more of a cookie/shortbread shell than a pie crust shell and as other reviewers said it was hard. No, I didn't over work the dough, but I did make it in the food processor like Ina did and I think it is harder to control how much you work dough. I prefer pie crust, so the next time I'll cut back on the sugar and butter and increase the shortening to make it more like a pie crust and less like a sweet cookie. That is strictly a personal preference though. The custard was delicious. I was a little worried about the cornstarch after reading some reviews, but the custard turned out fine. I completely forgot about brushing on the apricot glaze and the tarts were delicious without it.

    I haven't made the tarts but I made the pastry cream. The catch is I made the cream completely vegan. How? Using a new vegan egg yolk product called The Vegg, almond milk, and vegan margarine. Sounds crazy but it turned out amazing. The flavor is just what I remember traditional pastry cream to be. Love, love, love it!

    The pastry cream was absolutely sinful. In fact everything tasted out of this world. So why only 3 stars? The crust gets soggy very quickly. When I served this the crust was just mush. ( I had it in the fridge for 1-2 hrs before serving

    If anyone has an idea on how to prevent the crust was getting soggy, I'm all ears because honestly, the taste was out of this world.

    Ina, darling: Magnifique!

    I confess I was skeptical about the cream. I hate adding starch to things just as a thickening agent. Even as I took it out of the oven I could still taste it - - unfortunately my tastebuds are somewhat annoying that way. However, once it was cool enough, I was moving it and it spilled on my finger and I licked it. Suddenly, it was just impossible to get my fingers clean as I kept going back for more!

    Unfortunately, the final product was so delicious my boyfriend pretty much devoured the whole thing. I switched the pistachios for some whole roasted hazelnuts. It was reminiscent of our trip to Paris.

    Congratz on being so fabulous! ;-
