About Tarte au citron

Tarte Au Citron, a classic French dessert, is celebrated for its tangy, vibrant flavor and delicate texture. This dish typically features a buttery, flaky tart crust filled with a smooth and zesty lemon custard made from fresh lemon juice, eggs, sugar, and butter, often topped with a light meringue or left unadorned. Originating from French pâtisseries, it is a hallmark of refinement and simplicity in European cuisine. While the dessert provides a source of vitamin C from the lemons, it is also high in sugar and saturated fats due to its custard and crust ingredients. As such, Tarte Au Citron is best enjoyed as an occasional indulgence rather than a regular treat. Its bright citrus notes and balanced richness make it a favorite for those seeking a refreshing yet decadent dessert.
