Use hot sheet
Preheating the sheet immediately gives the puff pastry underheat. Thus, the soil sits faster and absorbs less tomato juice.

Why this recipe works
So the puff pastry remains crispy under tomatoes
Tomatoes contain a lot of water and have to lose liquid before they start. Thin salt, drain and dry dab is therefore more important than a particularly long baking time. A narrow edge, a thin cheese cream and an already hot sheet also help in tanning the soil.
