Emerald Crown Galette

Whisk the egg yolk with a teaspoon of water to obtain a smooth egg wash. Gently brush the edge of the galette with this glaze, taking care not to get any on the cream to prevent it from spreading.
Bake in an oven preheated to 180°C (gas mark 6) for about 25 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown and crispy.
4. Final Decoration:
Once removed from the oven, let your galette cool for a few minutes before decorating.
Sprinkle generously with crushed pistachios for a crunchy touch, then dust with a light dusting of icing sugar for an elegant and festive touch.
Practical tips:
Color tip: If you’d like an even greener shade, add half a teaspoon of matcha tea powder to the pistachio cream. This will also enhance the subtle green tea flavor.
Perfect Texture: If the cream seems too runny after mixing, stir in an additional half tablespoon of cornstarch to thicken slightly.
Customize Taste: For a more pronounced sweetness, feel free to slightly increase the amount of sugar according to your taste preferences.
Storage:
Duration: Up to 2 days.
Method: Place your Emerald Crown Galette in an airtight container or wrapped in plastic wrap.
Ideal temperature: Keep it refrigerated to preserve the freshness of the cream. Before serving, warm it gently in the oven to restore its crispy texture.
Serving suggestions:
Serve your galette with espresso or green tea to enhance the pistachio notes.
Serve it at a Sunday brunch or as a gourmet break with friends for a convivial and delicious moment.
