Rustic Strawberry Lemon Rhubarb Galette Recipes

STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Stack the two discs of dough on a lightly floured surface and roll into a disc about 12 inches wide. Transfer to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Set aside.
• Toss together the rhubarb, strawberries, cornstarch and 1/2 cup granulated sugar in a medium bowl until combined. Set aside. Roll out the almond paste into a 10-inch circle.
• Place the almond paste on the dough. Top evenly with the strawberry-rhubarb filling, leaving a 2-inch border around the edges. Fold the dough edges toward the center of the galette, up and over the edges of the filling, overlapping as needed.
• Whisk together the egg yolk and 1 teaspoon water in a small bowl. Brush on the edges of the galette and sprinkle with the almonds and remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar.
• Bake until the filling is bubbly and the edges are nicely browned, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving with whipped cream or ice cream.

RUSTIC STRAWBERRY LEMON RHUBARB GALETTE

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, add flour, salt, sugar and butter. Mix until clumpy- about 30 seconds. Add ice cold water. Mix for about a minute. If it still seems dry, add a teaspoon at a time more water until it is malleable and dough like. Take the dough out of the mixer and knead with your hands on your counter top a few more times. Make it into a ball and cover it with plastic wrap. Put it in the refrigerator for one hour.
• In a large bowl, stir together all ingredients. Let stand until ready to assemble.
• When dough has been chilled for an hour, preheat oven to 425F.
• Remove plastic wrap from dough and knead a couple times on a floured surface. Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough into a circle about 18" wide.
• Place the fruit filling in the middle of the dough and fold over the edges. Brush the beaten egg white on the crust (optional.)
• Place the Galette on a baking stone or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake on 425F for 30-35 min. Let cool a bit before serving. Serve with vanilla ice cream!

STRAWBERRY GALETTE

Steps:

• Whisk the all-purpose flour and the almond flour in a large bowl, then set aside. (It's best to stick it in the freezer for about 15 minutes until ready to use, to ensure a well-chilled dough.)
• Slice 3 tablespoons of the butter as thinly as possible without getting obsessive about it. (It's OK if pieces break.) Cut the remaining 5 tablespoons of butter into 1/2-inch cubes. Keeping the sliced butter and cubed butter separate, set the butter in the fridge to chill until ready to use.
• In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix the 1/4 cup yogurt with 1 tablespoon of the water and keep cold in the fridge until ready to use.
• Whisk the flour mixture with the 1 teaspoon sugar and the salt. Spread the cubed butter pieces over the flour and cut the butter into the flour using a pastry blender or your fingers until the chunks look slightly smaller than pea size. Toss the butter slices with the flour mixture, separating them as you go, then gently press them into the flour between your fingers into flat sheets. (This extra step is helpful in creating pockets of steam, which will make for a flakier crust, an added bonus for pie dough makers of any skill!)
• Drizzle the chilled yogurt over the flour and butter mixture. Use a spatula or a wooden spoon to toss and combine. If the dough seems dry, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the ice water, and continue tossing and combining, incorporating any dry flour bits at the bottom of the bowl and scraping off the spatula as you go, until the mixture just comes together in a mound. If needed, drizzle more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, without allowing the dough to get too wet.
• Transfer the dough to a large piece of plastic wrap, then press the dough into a 6-inch disk and wrap well. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 3 days.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees with the rack in the center position. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Prepare the filling: Place 1/2 cup sugar and the lemon zest in a large bowl and rub the lemon zest into the sugar with your fingertips. Add the strawberries, cornstarch and salt; mix well to combine, making sure the cornstarch is well incorporated. Add up to another 1/4 cup sugar if desired, depending on the sweetness of your strawberries and your desired level of sweetness.
• Dust your countertop with flour, then transfer the chilled dough to it and sprinkle a little flour on top of the dough. Roll the dough out to a 12- to 14-inch round, lightly flouring as needed. (It's OK if the edges break and the shape isn't perfectly round.) Gently transfer the dough by rolling it over a rolling pin and onto the prepared baking sheet. (At this point, if you've forgotten something, like preparing the egg wash, or if your dough has warmed up slightly, place the sheet pan in the fridge for a few minutes.)
• Mound the strawberries and their juices in the middle of the dough and leave a 2-inch border. Fold the border over the fruit, pleating as you fold and leaving the center of the galette exposed. Brush the crust with the egg wash and sprinkle with sugar.
• Bake until the crust is golden and the strawberries are bubbling, about 35 minutes. It's OK if some juices leak. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour and serve.

RHUBARB GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
• On a lightly floured work surface, roll out dough to a 14-inch round, about 1/8-inch thick.
• Place rhubarb and lemon juice in a large bowl; toss to combine. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined. Add sugar mixture to rhubarb and toss until well coated. Arrange rhubarb mixture on top of dough, leaving a 2-inch border all the way around. Fold border over the fruit mixture, overlapping where necessary and pressing gently to adhere the folds. Brush edges of dough with egg, sprinkle with turbinado or sanding sugar, and dot with butter. Transfer to refrigerator and chill 15 to 20 minutes.
• Bake until crust is deep golden brown and juices are bubbling, 55 to 60 minutes. Transfer baking sheet to a wire rack to cool the galette. Serve warm or at room temperature.
