For early spring then a tart soft and fragrant citrus is what it takes, with a slight crust without butter and no eggs (the eggs I used for the cream).
Although it is made with wholemeal flour the pastry remains rather soft and crumbly. What kind of pastry will you say?
This Italian recipe, with some modifications made by me (I reduced the sugar), I found the recipe on a book of Montersino.
Do not expect the usual pastry buttery and very tasty, this is good but to me falls in those recipes a bit 'health-conscious. However, the overall
result is pleasant tasting and testing done in the family has had positive feedback ... I think all of us moms and housewives they know a little bit of culinary criticism of family members, or not? (but that's it, but there is little sugar, too sweet, but it is cooked well? cream is too fluid ... etc ...) !!.
The custard instead is enriched with the classic orange and lemon.
If you like to try it I suggest you prepare it the day before and then store it in the fridge and enjoy it fresh.
Garnish with the orange slices at the last minute and a sprinkle of powdered sugar makes it colorful and festive.
