Remarks

For a richer dessert (which I love), serve it with vanilla ice cream and a little whipped cream (crème chantilly).
It's quite important to use slightly sour plums, the taste really is superior, otherwise with greengages, for example, the taste will be rather dull.
You will probably read in other recipes that you should put plums the other way up in the tart to avoid too much juice flowing out. After making the tart both ways, I'm not really convinced, but of course you could try it.
