Soak the dates in hot water for about an hour. Heat 100ml of water and let the tea bag steep for 8 minutes.

Crush the biscuits. Add enough herbal tea to obtain a crumbly mixture. Press into the 10cm mold.

Add the egg and caramel mixture to the cheese mixture, then mix. Pour the mixture over the crust. Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 40 minutes.

Garnish with mandarin zest. Refrigerate overnight.
