Recently, the most famous pastry chefs in France have been posting in social  many savory recipes like: sandwiches, appetizers, and even savory tart. I found this recipe by Michalak particularly tasty and I make it every time I feel like having a picnic.

Tips to ensure the success of the dish:

  • I love the combination of sweet vegetables with chili pepper. I always serve carrots and pumpkin with chili pepper. If you don’t like it, you can replace it with pepper.
  • If the sauce is too firm to spread, you can soften it with a couple of tablespoons of milk.
  • The cooking time in the oven is indicative because each oven cooks differently.
