Golden Cornmeal Galette: A Guilt-Free Twist on a Classic Favorite!
I mean look at that it is really delicious today we’re going back to my friend The Joy of Cooking we’re making this cornmeal flaky pastry dough I’m also going to be making it with my friend Bob rest in peace and his one to one gluten-free baking flour and I used to make it with just regular flour until I.
Got sick about 3 years ago and then learned that I’m allergic to wheat and probably have been my whole life even though I’ve been eating wheat my whole life and enjoying it at the time but then never really knowing why I felt so crummy all the time so the recipe technically calls for maybe about 40% cornmeal I do half and half I do a.
Cup and a qu of the cornmeal and then a cup and a/4 of the gluten-free flour for 2 and 1/2 cups flour total then the recipe calls for bit of sugar bit of salt and then a bunch of butter two whole sticks of butter that then you’re supposed to cut into the dough until it becomes these.
Nice beads and I just do my my own thing with the Whisk I just stab and stab and stab until I get nice small pieces like magic now we have about all these pea-sized pieces of butter in my flour and my biceps got a nice workout.
From staring them all third of a cup of ice water and whatever you do don’t put in a full cup cuz then it ruins your dough which I did one time which was tragic that’s a lot of butter that’s two sticks of butter to waste and then you need your dough you divide it in half put it in the fridge.
For several hours because one thing I have learned is this dough should be really cold because the glutenfree flour is incredibly frustrating to roll out so it really needs to be as cold as possible so while the dough is chilling quite literally I’m going to talk about whole.
Thing that my parents used when I was a kid and it’s just this crazy pot that I just can’t get rid of even though I really don’t use it anymore the shape is fun and it has this detachable handle which I don’t know why it’s easier to.
Store is it easier to transport I I just don’t know but I love it and I can’t I can’t get rid of it whenever I think of this pan I think of craft macaroni and cheese cuz I think I used to make it all the time when I was first living with roommates and we would make it in this pan cuz you didn’t need any other dishes.
You could just drain the water with the lid and then mix in the butter and milk and the cheese sauce and then we just ate it right out of the pan don’t need to dirty any other dishes except for the spoon of course I can no longer eat regular craft macaroni and cheese so thank gosh for people like.
Annie’s who make gluten-free box mac and cheese with rice pasta man it is delicious all right so here’s a cold dough ready to go and let’s hope this rolls out with the least amount of frustration and to be honest before I started found this recipe in the joy of cooking I did not know what a guyette.
Was but I started making them because I wanted to make an apple pie for my husband but I just was really too lazy and too intimidated to make two crusts cuz that just didn’t go well for me so when I saw this guyette recipe and the joy of cooking that only had one crust.
I was very happy to try it and man I’m glad I did so I have a peach tree in the backyard and in the late summer early fall when the peaches are ripe I’ll make myself a peach guette but usually I’m making an apple gallette and some people most people maybe would probably peel the skins off.
The Apple but I like having the skins on the apples and my husband my mother-in-law like it that way too and that’s usually who I’m making the guyette for so I leave them on so the recipe technically calls for you to uh put butter on your fruit and a lot more sugar than I put on and then I typically add.
Cinnamon but I don’t put butter on mine and I put a lot less sugar on then the recipe calls for and again your uh glutenfree mix here won’t be that easy to fold it’ll kind of uh fall apart as you’re folding it but I guarantee it still tastes good and while the gaad is in the oven tell you about the shirt that I’m.
Wearing which is for topt donuts in Seattle because they make one of my favorite things on earth and oldfashioned donuts with chocolate ice icing that yes I uh still Pine for but thanks to the joy of cooking I can have something that really is you know almost as good as a Top Pot donut I mean look at.
That it is really delicious and yes you don’t even need to slice it and put it on a plate you can just eat it with your hands which is how my mother-in-law eats it it’s done would you like some I just can’t get over this cool handle and I would just like to know why it’s.
Detachable maybe it’s so it’s harder to hit your husband over the head with it I don’t know
