Procedures:
1*note: shortcrust pastry made with 7-8 oz flour will be about right for this recipe.
2these tarts are irresistible when made with home-candied angelica, as dull as ditchwater when store-bought is used.
3Chop the angelica into small pieces, cover with warm water to rinse off some of the sugar and set aside for a few minutes.
4While the angelica soaks, line 18 x 2 ?inch tartlet tins with the shortcrust pastry and start preparing the filling.
5Dice and barely melt the butter in a small saucepan.
6Away from the heat, beat in the honey, then the curd cheese, then the egg yolk mixed with the milk.
7Stir in the well drained angelica.
8Whisk the egg white to snowy peaks and fold it in. spoon the mixture into the pastry-lined tartlet tins and bake at 400°F (200 c) gas mark 6 for 30 minutes until puffed up and golden.
9Serve as soon as cooled from cooking.
