Strawberry Tartlets

Kitchen Princess is a manga by Natsumi Ando and Miyuki Kobayashi in which every chapter is named after a dish. This is our own quick, family-friendly version of that dish, not the recipe from the book.

A bakery strawberry tart has a baked crust and a cooked custard. Ready-made shells and pudding make it a ten-minute dessert that looks just as pretty.

Make it a learning moment: strawberries are the only fruit with seeds on the outside. Guess how many are on one berry, then count.
