How to Make Pastéis de Nata | Amazing Portuguese Custard Tart Recipe

Рет қаралды 111,103

Күн бұрын

Portuguese custard tarts are not very sweet. The filling is nice and light, and the pastry is so crispy that it shatters as you bite through it. It is one of those treats that has a long history and tradition attached to it. But as you may have noticed this channel is about the baking process itself and not about history. So, don’t be mad at me my Portuguese friends. This is just my interpretation of this delicious little pastry.

My oven is only fan, should I turn the temperature down a bit?

@sandrajohnson9926 Жыл бұрын

The crust looks amazingly flaky & must have a bit of a crunch. Puff pastry-like. Beautiful.

@lizanneheyns1504 Жыл бұрын

I turned the temperature down by 10 degrees. It doesn’t burn the top properly, so I finished it off by using my gas burner to scorch the top. It turned out amazing 🤩

Baked these today - I did have a mini-muffin tin, so I used the same amount of the crust (rolled out wider to make a slimmer, longer log) and increased the custard mix by 25%.. I had a tart tamper to shape the dough in each cavity - I did place the muffin tin in the fridge for 20 minutes as it was getting warm in the kitchen and the dough was softening. After the 20 minute chill, I finished shaping the dough in the pan, poured the custard (it barely fit, i had to transfer some from the first few I filled as the last one didn't have enough - next time I may increase the custard mix by 30%. Baking at 482°F took a bit longer than the recipe called for - and while the custard finally started to bubble and the crust did begin to brown, only after I increased the temp to 500°F did the "char" begin to happen (it was rather exciting to see it 👍) Results, yes, a shattering crackling crust with a smooth, slightly sweet custard - outstanding!!! I enjoyed it with a nice tall glass of very very cold iced tea. Many thanks Charlie for sharing your version of the awe-inspiring recipe. Will be making this again later this week. Photos have been posted. #204

Congrats! - I'm Portuguese, born in Lisbon and this is exactly the mots used recipe in the entire country. Some people use a mix of lard and butter for the puff pastry. I don't bake these more often because of the pastry, but this method is quicker than the French one.

They turned out so beautifully! Great recipe and video. I experimented a bit wehen forming the dough cups by turning some of the rolled dough pieces on the side so that the lamination would be turned by 90 degrees. Not much of a difference. But using a rolling pin helped quite a bit since my flour must have been stronger than yours. Overall, these little tarts are well worth the effort.

First time here, and this is a fabulous recipe for a delicious tart with which I have only recently become familiar. We got frozen ones at Costco, of all places, and hubby and I devoured them! Three boxes in 2 weeks! They sold out really fast, and it doesn’t look as if Costco is going to get another batch. So disappointing. So, I thought I’d find out how to make them myself. However, at 75 yrs. of age, with quite a few painful health issues, particularly my hands, I’m not sure I have it in me to make the lovely pastry demonstrated in this video. I know it’s a cheat, and that it wouldn’t be exactly the same, but could I do the store bought puff pastry instead, anyone? I’m subscribing, cuz I love the way he demonstrated all the steps. Thank you! 💞

Never seen vanilla in pasteis de nata. It's always cinnamon and lemon peel because they were the most common flavors used in the Iberian peninsula for desserts before the Colombian exchange. By the way you can wet your fingers to stretch the dough better if it's too hard to stretch out. If I remember they're baked at 370°C/700°F.
