  • Sweeten to Taste: The amount of sugar used in the tart filling can be adjusted based on the sweetness of the rhubarb and personal preference. Start with the suggested amount and adjust as needed.
  • Chill the Dough Before Baking: Chilling the dough before baking helps prevent it from shrinking and makes it easier to handle.
  • Use Egg Wash for a Golden Crust: Brush the top of the tart crust with egg wash before baking to achieve a beautiful golden-brown color.
  • Serve Warm or Cold: This tart can be served warm or cold. If serving warm, let it cool slightly before slicing.
