Prepare the crust: in a bowl, combine the flour and salt
Add the cold butter and mix with your fingertips until it forms a crumbly mixture
Gradually add the ice-cold water, mixing until the dough comes together
Form into a ball, flatten slightly to form a disk, and wrap in plastic film
Refrigerate for 30 minutes
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to a thickness of 32.5cm
Transfer to an open-topped tart pan with a diameter of 27.5cm and refrigerate for 15 minutes
Line the crust with parchment paper and fill with dried beans
Bake in a preheated medium oven (180°C) for 15 minutes or until lightly golden
Let cool, remove the beans, and reserve
Prepare the filling: cut each tomato slice in half and place on paper towels to drain for 45 minutes
Assemble the tart by placing the cheese slices in the crust, then arranging the tomato slices on top, overlapping slightly
Sprinkle with parsley, thyme, and oregano, then bake in a preheated medium oven (180°C) for 35 minutes or until the tomatoes are tender
Let cool, remove from pan, and serve warm
