Description:

Portugal’s capital Lisbon: symbolized by its landmark suspension bridge, its tramways, cafes and its famous natas pastries. A Portuguese delicacy viewed rather as a national treasure – its recipe a closely guarded secret. To make a good natas tartlet, you need pastry, cream and about 20 minutes of cooking time but the rest is a mystery. The secret is kept by two master confectioners who lock themselves away each day in a laboratory, far from prying eyes.
