Instructions
- Line the tin with the pastry and prick the base with a fork.
- Cover the pastry with parchment paper, then pour the beads over it in an even layer covering the entire surface.
- Bake according to the recipe; once baking is complete, remove the beads using the parchment paper.
- Allow the beads to cool before storing them in their jar for the next use.
Please note: Ceramic retains heat for a long time: always allow the beads to cool completely before handling them or returning them to their jar.
Frequently asked questions
How many times can these beads be reused?
Virtually unlimited times: ceramic is unalterable and does not deform with repeated exposure to heat.
Do I need to fill the tin to the brim with beads?
No, an even layer covering the entire pastry base is sufficient for effective weighting.
Are these beads suitable for all tart tins?
Yes, they fit all tart and tartlet tin sizes, from the smallest to the largest.
