Unbaked 23 cm tart crust

No-bake 23 cm tart crust is a pre-made base that allows for quick and easy preparation of tarts without the need for baking. It is generally made with a mixture of crushed cookies or flour, butter, and other ingredients that, when combined, form a firm and crunchy base ideal for cold or semi-cold fillings such as creams, fruits, or mousses.

Origin: This type of crust is very popular in modern cuisine and the pastry-making of Western countries, especially in American recipes, where cold tarts are a traditional option. Its practical presentation and easy handling have made it indispensable in many kitchens throughout Latin America and Spain.

Properties: As it does not require baking, it retains a crunchy texture and does not alter the flavor of the fillings, making it perfect for quick and fresh preparations. Furthermore, it is usually low in water content and resists the moisture from fillings well, preventing the base from becoming too soggy.

Synonyms in Latin American Spanish: no-bake tart crust, cold tart base, no-bake tart base, uncooked tart shell.
