French-style Seasonal Fruit Tart
A French fruit tart is really about the endless delicious possibilities - fruit combinations, shapes and decoration. This past summer, I served a "long and skinny" version several times, and there were never any leftovers. The tart below serves about 4 people. I recommend that the pastry cream be prepared the day before you serve the tarts, so there is adequate time for it to cool and thicken.
