Fruit Tart with Puff Pastry. As I passed the other day when I posted the brightness here have this pie pastry tart with custard and fruits.

The recipe is easy to prepare, but as has several parts (make the pastry cream, cover prepare, bake the puff pastry and prepare fruit) may seem less easy than it really is.

To eat:
When brush with egg may be tempted to take advantage of all the whole brushing egg puff rather than just the edge of the pastry. Do not, if you do the egg can block the holes that we have in the center of the pastry. When the air is not locked away and the pastry starts to grow in the middle. If this occurs the pastry swells and will not be fine for the center, which prevent us then place the pastry cream and fruit.
You have to let the pastry and custard to cool before putting the pastry cream over the pastry. If one of the two things is hot, the heat and steam will reblandecerán the pastry and lose its texture (it will be very soft and slightly crispy).
The other day we saw how to prepare a transparent cover cakes and there explained that when we use fruits like kiwi can have problems getting coverage curdle well because these fruits "dissolve" the gelatin protein. I have prepared the cake you see in the picture above with transparent cover we saw the other day on the blog and has caught perfectly. But if you have the option of using a specific product brightness pie I recommend it as well because it curdles you avoid problems quickly and effectively.
