CHERRY GALETTE



Cherry Galette image

I discovered the ease of Recipe #94405 recently, and my non-baking self fell in love. When I was overloaded with sweet cherries, I had to find a galette recipe to use them. This is an adaptation of a recipe found at an online wine site. That recipe used a homemade crust, but I think that the part of the appeal of the galette for me, aside from satisfying my sweet tooth, is the ease of using the refrigerated ones.

CHERRY TOMATO AND CHEESE GALETTE



Cherry Tomato and Cheese Galette image

While 'galette' sounds a little fancy, they're actually one of the easier type of pies to make, and above and beyond the simple technique, they are incredibly adaptable to whatever is in season. Whether that's sweet fruit or savory vegetables, there are very few things you can't galette. Garnish with fresh basil if desired.

Time 2h20m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cornmeal
½ teaspoon fine salt
½ cup frozen unsalted butter, cubed
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
¼ cup ice water
1 (8 ounce) package soft goat cheese
1 egg yolk
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons sliced fresh basil
3 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 egg, beaten
2 teaspoons water
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, or to taste
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil, or as desired
sea salt to taste

Steps:

  • Combine flour, cornmeal, salt, and frozen butter in a food processor. Pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add vinegar and ice water and pulse again until mixture comes together in clumps, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Wrap dough up in plastic wrap and shape into a disc. Refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, about 1 hour.
  • Combine goat cheese, egg yolk, kosher salt, pepper, cayenne, and basil in a bowl. Mix using a spatula until smooth and soft.
  • Place dough on a lightly floured work surface and sprinkle top with flour. Roll out into 1/8-inch-thick circle, about 13 inches in diameter. Roll dough over the rolling pin and transfer onto a 12-inch pizza pan; refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Mix tomatoes, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and Dijon mustard together in a bowl.
  • Drop spoonfuls of the cheese mixture onto the dough and spread evenly, leaving about 1 1/2-inch space on the sides. Place tomato mixture on top of cheese using a slotted spoon. Fold excess dough up and over tomatoes, creating a pleat every 3 inches or so by gently pressing and folding.
  • Combine beaten egg and water in a small bowl; brush over crust. Sprinkle Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese over galette.
  • Place a foil-lined pan on the rack under galette to catch any possible drips. Bake in the preheated oven until well browned on bottom and top, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool completely, about 30 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining olive oil and sea salt. Serve room temperature or chilled.

Yield Makes one 14-inch tart

Number Of Ingredients 10

All-purpose flour, for dusting
Pate Sucree for Tarts
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup unsalted almonds, toasted and cooled
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 pounds sweet cherries, such as Bing, pitted
2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon heavy cream

Steps:

  • On a piece of lightly floured parchment, roll out dough to a 16-inch-long oval (1/4 inch thick). Transfer dough and parchment to a baking sheet. Refrigerate until cold, about 30 minutes.
  • Process 1/4 cup sugar, the almonds, nutmeg, and salt in a food processor to combine. Gently toss with cherries.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spoon cherries over dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Dot with butter. Fold in edges, pressing gently. Refrigerate until cold, 30 minutes.
  • Whisk yolk with cream; brush over edges of tart. Sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar (or to taste). Bake until golden, 45 to 50 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, sweet cherries: This will ensure that your galette is bursting with flavor.
  • Use a food processor to make the crust: This will save you time and effort, and the crust will be more consistent.
  • Roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment paper: This will prevent the dough from sticking to your work surface.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the crust to hold its shape in the oven.
  • Brush the crust with milk before baking: This will give the crust a golden brown color.
  • Serve the galette warm or at room temperature: It's delicious either way!

Conclusion:

This cherry cream cheese galette is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that's perfect for any occasion. The sweet cherries and creamy filling are wrapped in a flaky crust, and the whole thing is topped with a sprinkle of powdered sugar. It's a simple but elegant dish that's sure to impress your guests.
