The custard today is for an Italian torta della nonna. Originally from Florence, torta della nonna – grandma’s tart – isn’t strictly an Easter treat, being found under the glass dome in trattorias alongside fruit salad, lasagne-sized tiramisu and crisscrossed jam crostata all year round.
Brush the top lightly with a few drops of water and decorate with pine nuts. Put the Italian custard tart in the oven to bake for 45-55 minutes. The cake should be slightly golden and the pine nuts a toasty golden brown when the cake is ready. The cake must then be left to cool completely for at least 2 to 8 hours (preferably).
Bake at 180C/350F/gas 4 for 30 minutes, or until the custard is set and the pine nuts ever so slightly golden. Torta della nonna is better eaten when it is just warm, rather than hot, after Easter lunch – or any lunch for that matter.
The pastry is a slight riff on one of his three pasta frolla (sugar pastry) recipes, (with the only difference of a pinch of leavening added to the dough). As for the custard, Artusi scents his solely with vanilla, while a classic Torta della Nonna filling has a bit of lemon zest thrown in there, too, so I worked it in his crema pasticcera recipe.
