3. Let the dough rest in the refrigerator for half an hour before using.
4. Roll out the dough on a surface lightly dusted with flour, then line the appropriate tart pan with it, or cut and line small tart pans.
5. Use a fork to prick the dough all over so it does not puff up during baking.
6. Place baking paper over the dough and add a weight, such as lentils or beans, so the dough does not rise during baking in the oven.
7. Place the tart dough on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 20 minutes at 180°C.
