According to legend, the monks at the Jeronimos Monastery used the egg whites to starch their vestments, and the yolks were used to make pastries filled with custard - pastel de nata. The sale of this dessert helped the monastery survive the Portuguese Revolution of 1820, and now Lisbon hosts a pate festival every year to choose the best version. This crispy puff pastry basket with a very sweet cream inside is a must-have for breakfast in any city in Portugal. Recipe included .
