Only 6 People In The World Know The Recipe For Portugal’s Famous Tarts : The Salt
The shop features a wide selection of traditional Portuguese cakes and coffees.
But the real showstopper Clarinha is talking about is the Pastel de Bélem (Pasteis if you’re talking about more than one) — a round, flaky and buttery tart with an egg custard filling.
“It’s kind of like a crème brulée tart,” says Lordes Pinero, who drove nearly 200 miles from her home in southern Portugal to visit the shop.
“We’re going to ask for the recipe to see if they’ll give it to us.”
