    Prick the bottom of the tart shell with a fork, line it with parchment paper, fill with pie weights or dried beans, and blind bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are light golden. Remove weights and parchment, then bake for another 5-7 minutes if the bottom needs further browning.
