For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of nutmeg or a clove of minced garlic to the custard. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil. Serve warm or at room temperature with a crisp green salad. A high-quality, ripe Camembert will provide the best flavor. Look for a cheese that is soft to the touch and has a slightly pungent aroma. For a richer tart, use crème fraîche instead of heavy cream.
