For the dough

3. Immediately transfer dough to a tart pan (24cm) with a removable bottom. Using a measuring cup, evenly press dough in bottom and up sides of pan.
4. Bake in center of oven until golden brown and firm to the touch, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 1 hour.
