Notes
- If your tart mold is not non-stick, line it with parchment paper to ease removal after baking.
- Blanch the garlic twice to remove harshness before caramelizing with honey and rosemary for sweetness balanced with herbal notes.
- Drain the garlic thoroughly after blanching and caramelizing steps to maintain the texture in the tart.
