History of shortbread pies

A pie of this type, that is, on a shortbread basis, open and filled, is called a crostat in many countries. It's easy to guess that this word is Italian, which is not surprising at all, because the pie also comes from those picturesque places. The first written mention of krostat can be found in the cookbook "Libro de Arte Coquinaria", dated 1465. Actually, a similar open pie in Italy has been called differently since ancient times, just crostata is the most common name, and it spread all over the world. The word “crostata” comes from the Latin “crusta”, which means “crust”, as well as the past feminine participles “crustāre”, which means “inlay” or “crust over” depending on the context. In our case, one must think, it was the ruddy crust that was meant.

Usually krostata is a sweet cake. The filling can be not only creams, as we have today, but also all kinds of berries, fruits, cottage cheese and cheese. There are crostats and savory ones, for example, with meat. In other words, it can be either lemon pie or lemon curd pie. The list, of course, goes on and on. However, today we have more interesting and more important things to do, namely, making an open lemon pie with the most delicate cream.
