Description
A rustic, seasonal galette featuring thinly sliced heirloom tomatoes and tangy goat cheese, perfect for a light meal or brunch centerpiece.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 10 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into ¼-inch pats
- 3 tablespoons ice water
- 1 teaspoon cold apple cider vinegar
- 1 pound colorful heirloom tomatoes, thinly sliced
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 4 ounces goat cheese
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon chopped chives
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 garlic clove, grated
- ½ teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
- Fresh basil, for garnish
- Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling
- Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Make the crust: In a food processor, place 1 cup of the flour and the salt. Pulse to combine. Spread the butter pats evenly on top of the flour mixture. Pulse until the butter is well combined with the flour and the dough starts to form clumps. There should be no dry flour remaining.
- Spread the mixture evenly in the bowl of the food processor and sprinkle the remaining ½ cup flour on top. Briefly pulse until the dough becomes crumbly.
- Transfer the dough to a large bowl and sprinkle the water and vinegar on top. Use a spatula to fold and press the dough until it comes together into a ball. Form the ball into a 1-inch-thick disk. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours, or up to 2 days.
Notes
- This recipe is forgiving; do not worry about perfect edges for a rustic look.
