Preparation

Assemble the Tart
  1. Spread the Dijon mustard evenly over the pie crust, leaving a 1-inch border.
  2. Arrange the sliced heirloom tomatoes on top of the mustard in a single layer.
  3. Sprinkle the fresh thyme leaves and grated Parmesan cheese over the tomatoes.
  4. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper.

For extra flavor, you can brush the crust with an egg wash before baking. Feel free to experiment with different herbs like basil or oregano. This tart is best served warm, but also delicious at room temperature.
