NECTARINE AND BLUEBERRY GALETTE



Nectarine and Blueberry Galette image

The charm of a galette, a casual open-faced tart, is in its imperfections. It's O.K. if the fruit juices leak a little, and there is no fussy crust-crimping for those who find that part of pie-making frustrating. The often-overlooked nectarine is such a perfect summer fruit. It has all the honeyed sweetness of a peach, minus that fuzzy skin, plus a little hit of tartness, and it pairs beautifully with dark, sweet blueberries. The sugar here is given in a range: Use the smaller amount if your fruit is particularly sweet, the larger amount if it's tart.

Categories     pies and tarts, dessert

Time 2h

Yield One 9-inch galette

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 to 8 tablespoons/80 to 100 grams sugar, depending on the sweetness of the fruit
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
Seeds from 1/2 vanilla bean (or 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract)
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Pinch of kosher salt
2 medium nectarines (about 3/4 pound/340 grams), pitted and sliced into 1/2-inch slices
1 1/4 cups/180 grams blueberries
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 recipe all-butter pie crust, chilled
1 egg, beaten
3/4 teaspoon turbinado sugar
Pinch of flaky salt

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees, and position a rack in the lower third of the oven. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine sugar, lemon zest and vanilla in a large bowl. Use your fingertips to rub the zest and seeds (or extract) into the sugar. Add the flour and salt and stir to combine. Add the nectarines, blueberries and lemon juice, but don't stir quite yet.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 12-inch round just under 1/4-inch thick. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet.
  • Stir the filling to combine, then pile all the fruit in the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Press the fruit gently to make sure there are no large open pockets. Fold the edges of the dough up and over the fruit and press gently to seal the folds.
  • Put the whole baking sheet into the freezer, and chill the formed galette until the dough is very firm, about 15 minutes. Brush dough with the beaten egg, and sprinkle with sugar and salt. Bake until deep golden brown and the juices are bubbling, about 45 minutes. Cool slightly before serving.

BLACKBERRY NECTARINE CRISP



Blackberry Nectarine Crisp image

This recipe came to The Times in 2003 from Rebecca Charles of Pearl Oyster Bar, an outpost for Maine coastal cooking on Cornelia Street in Greenwich Village. It is easy to whip up on a summer day when company is coming and there's lots to get done. "Use the blackberries more as an accent," she said at the time. "'The berries'll bleed out all this fabulous inky color."

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 heaping cup whole blackberries (about 6 ounces)
Vanilla ice cream for serving

NECTARINE TART



Nectarine Tart image

A beautiful dessert made from any great summer fruit - figs, nectarines, apricots, plums - that, yes, takes a little time. The reward is in the wow factor you get from the result - and in the flavors it provides. Brushing the pastry with a slick of good preserves before you add the fruit will create a thick syrup on the bottom that helps keep the pastry from becoming soggy. Then cut the fruit into quarters or eighths, depending on their size, then crowd the wedges so that they stand at attention in tight concentric circles on a pastry shell. Dust the whole thing with sugar and baste the top with melted butter. Cook and cool the finished tart, then serve with crème fraîche, whipped cream, or a few scoops of your favorite ice cream.

Provided by Florence Fabricant

Categories     dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cups flour, plus more for rolling
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons sugar
11 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
1 egg yolk, beaten
2 1/2-3 pounds fruit like peaches, nectarines, figs, apricots, plums
6 tablespoons red currant jelly, or other preserves, depending on fruit
1 cup crème fraîche, for serving

Steps:

  • Blend flour, salt and 2 tablespoons sugar in a bowl or food processor. Dice 8 tablespoons of the butter. Use a pastry blender or two knives to blend flour mixture and butter, or pulse them together in a food processor to make a crumbly mixture. Beat the egg yolk with 3 tablespoons cold water. Dribble it over the flour mixture, then stir or pulse slowly until the mixture starts clumping together. A bit more water may be necessary. Gather dough in a loose ball and form into a disk on a lightly floured surface.
  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Roll out dough and line a 10-inch loose-bottom tart pan. Line pastry with a sheet of foil and spread pastry weights or dry beans on top. Bake 12 minutes. Meanwhile, melt the remaining butter, cooking it on low until it turns a light nut brown. Pit fruit (except figs) and cut in eighths or, if fruit is small, fourths. After 12 minutes, remove foil and weights from pastry. Return pastry to oven and continue baking until it is lightly browned, another 8 to 10 minutes. Remove pastry from oven and increase temperature to 400 degrees.
  • Brush pastry with preserves. Arrange fruit in tight concentric circles, starting by placing it around the perimeter, skin side down, against the vertical sides of the pastry and standing it up as much as possible. Brush with melted butter. Dust with remaining sugar. Bake about 35 to 40 minutes, until edges have browned but fruit has not collapsed. Cool before serving with crème fraîche.

BLUEBERRY-NECTARINE LATTICE PIE



Blueberry-Nectarine Lattice Pie image

This blueberry pie with nectarines gets brightness from grapefruit juice, fragrance from coriander, and a beautiful look from the pastry on top.

Provided by Genevieve Ko

Categories     Blueberry     Pie     Dessert     Summer     Nectarine     Vegetarian     Soy Free     Tree Nut Free

Yield Makes one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 9

Barley-Cornmeal Crust
Unbleached all-purpose flour, for rolling
¾ cup (156 g) sugar, plus more for sprinkling (optional)
3 tablespoons cornstarch
½ teaspoon ground coriander
¼ teaspoon salt
1¾ pounds (792 g) blueberries (5¼ cups)
12 ounces (340 g) very ripe nectarines (about 3), pitted and cut into ½-inch dice
3 tablespoons fresh grapefruit juice

Steps:

  • If the dough has been chilled for longer than 2 hours, let stand for 10 minutes before rolling.
  • Lightly flour a large sheet of parchment paper. Unwrap the larger disk of dough, place in the center of the paper, and cover with its plastic wrap. Roll into a 12-inch round, occasionally lifting and replacing the plastic wrap. Flip it over and peel off the parchment, then lift the dough with the plastic wrap and flip it into a 9-inch pie plate, gently pressing it into the bottom and up the sides. Discard the plastic. Refrigerate until ready to fill.
  • Unwrap the remaining disk of dough and repeat the rolling, using the same parchment and rolling it into an 11-inch round. If the dough has softened, slide it on the parchment onto a half sheet pan and refrigerate until firm. Then, using a fluted or straight-edged pizza wheel or a sharp knife, cut the dough into 1½-inch-wide strips. Slide onto a pan and refrigerate.
  • Stir the sugar, cornstarch, coriander, and salt in a large bowl. Add the blueberries, nectarines, and grapefruit juice. Gently toss until evenly mixed. Let stand while the oven preheats.
  • Position a rack on the lowest rung of the oven and preheat to 450°F. Line a half sheet pan with foil. Place the pie plate on the pan.
  • Stir the filling again and spread it in the pie plate. Brush water on the edges of the bottom dough. Arrange half of the dough strips on top in parallel lines, spacing them 1 inch apart. Fold back the strips at the center of the pie. Place a dough strip perpendicular to the other strips across the center of the pie. Unfold alternating strips over the perpendicular strip. Set down another perpendicular strip 1 inch apart from the first and unfold the remaining strips over it. Repeat the folding, placing, and unfolding to create a lattice top. Or simply place half the strips on the pie, spacing them an inch apart, and place the remaining strips perpendicular to them, spacing them an inch apart.
  • Use a pair of kitchen shears to trim the strips and bottom edge to a ¾-inch overhang. Fold the overhang under and decoratively crimp the edges with a fork or fingers. If the dough has softened, pop the whole pie into the freezer until the dough is firm again, about 10 minutes. If you'd like a sparkly top, brush the lattice with water and sprinkle with sugar.
  • Bake the pie for 30 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F and bake until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling, 30 to 40 minutes more. If the crust starts to get too brown, tent loosely with foil.
  • Cool on the pan on a wire rack until warm. Carefully lift the pie plate off the foil and let stand on the rack until the filling is set, at least 6 hours
  • Make-ahead: The pie will keep overnight at room temperature. In fact, it cuts more cleanly and tastes better the next day, after the filling has had time to really set. Leftovers will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
