Galette! : Rebecca Firkser

A rustic galette is made without a special tart or pie pan, with fruit, vegetables, or other fillings placed in the center of the dough before the edges are folded over and baked.

This book focuses on this free-form style of galette, presenting 50 recipes ranging from sweet to savory.

Requiring no special equipment or ingredients, galettes can be made with a wide variety of combinations using seasonal fruits and vegetables, cheeses, meats, spices, and more.

Recipes include a summery peach and granola galette, a savory galette with marinated artichokes and tomatoes, a galette with brown-buttered apples and honey, and individual galettes filled with lemony spinach and rice.

From large galettes designed to be sliced and shared with a crowd to smaller individual versions, the book explores a variety of styles suited to different occasions.

It also provides practical guidance on making and shaping the dough, chilling it before baking, and making use of leftover dough.

Using everything from seasonal produce to everyday pantry staples, this book invites readers to discover the versatility of galettes and enjoy creating their own combinations.
