I was actually "this close" to skipping this week's Tuesdays With Dorie recipe, Berry Galette, which would have been a first for me. Considering that we tackled Blueberry Nectarine Pie just last week it felt a bit redundant. Luckily the galette was super easy to put together so I had to put my laziness aside.
If you attempt this recipe a word of caution that I'm sure you probably already noticed - the berries tend to leak quite a bit during baking. I used a triple berry combination of strawberries, raspberries and blueberries. In hindsight I probably should have omitted the strawberries, per the recipes notes, but I had some in my fridge and threw them in.
Luckily the pastry didn't get soggy from all the juice and actually browned quite nicely. Next time I'll add a little more sugar to the dough and also the fruit. Other than that I thought it was a very tasty tart which would undoubtedly be even better with some ice cream!

I loved how sturdy (yet not too chewy) the crust was for this recipe. I have to say that the juiciness all around the slices makes it look even more delicious.
ReplyDeleteBerries do produce a lot of juice, especially when you use only strawberries like I did. Great pic! Love the colors
ReplyDeleteIt was delicious with ice cream, I know!! What a fun recipe.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post. The "juiciness" actually adds to the image and makes it look rather inviting and delicious.
ReplyDeleteIt may be juicy, but it looks delicious :-) Beautiful picture.
ReplyDeleteG O R G E O U S photo!!! I almost skipped this for the same reason. Glad I didn't - good way for me to use the rest of the dough from the blueberry pie.
ReplyDeleteIt would have been a pity if you hadn't made it: it looks wonderful and delicious!
ReplyDeleteTo avoid the "over-juicing" I've spread almonds and sugar under the berries and it worked.
Definitely great with ice cream ;)
