This is a really easy, zesty gluten-free Corsican dessert that’s a cross between a flan and a baked cheesecake. On the island, they have a local liqueur called ‘myrtle eau de vie’, made from the berries of the myrtle shrub, which has a very distinct and slightly aromatic flavour. If you can find some, then do use it to add a unique flavour; otherwise, use limoncello for a delicate lemony treat.
