Tartlets with ham and cheese snack

7 servings

30 minutes

Ham and cheese tartlets are an exquisite European appetizer that combines the tenderness of ham, creaminess of cheese, and the piquancy of olives. The history of tartlets traces back to French cuisine, where miniature baskets were used to serve gourmet dishes. Their crispy base perfectly complements the rich filling, creating a harmony of textures and flavors. The appetizer has a soft, slightly salty taste with subtle smoky hints from the ham and creamy meltiness of the cheese. Prepared in advance, tartlets absorb the aromas of the filling, becoming even more delicate. These little treats make a wonderful addition to a festive table or an elegant offering at a buffet.
