Tips:
- For the best flavor, use ripe, juicy tomatoes. Roma tomatoes are a good choice, as they have less seeds and water than other varieties.
- Fresh basil is essential for this tart. If you don't have any on hand, you can use dried basil, but it won't be as flavorful.
- Use a good quality olive oil. This will help to bring out the flavor of the tomatoes and basil.
- Don't overcook the tomatoes. They should be cooked until they are softened, but still hold their shape.
- If you don't have a tart pan, you can use a 9-inch pie plate. Just trim the edges of the puff pastry so that it fits the plate.
- Serve the tart warm or at room temperature. It's also delicious the next day.
