Shavuot is in about 3 weeks, and this is just the time to start thinking about what to make for the holiday feast. Every year I am responsible for three things – quiche, bread (or other savory pastry) and cheesecake. This year I decided that the traditional quiche should be slightly more modern, and that’s how the idea of savory galette was thought of.<\/p>\n

Galette is actually a traditional rustic French tart, usually made sweet, that is made without a tart pan. You just have to roll out the dough into a circle (which does not have to be the most symmetrical), sprinkle the filling in the center part of the circle and close the edges of the dough on the sides in a semi-sloppy way. After baking, you get a beautiful and tasty rustic galette that is really hard to resist.<\/p>\n

The idea of making savory galette came up as part of a brainstorming session with my talented friend Anat<\/strong><\/a>, during a joint baking day we\u2019d recently had. We made a few more things \u2013 this beet and goat cheese galette is only one of them. This is definitely one of the most tempting pastries I made recently – a golden short crust pastry filled with chard, beets and goat cheese slices and some balsamic vinegar. This goat cheese galette is simply perfect for Spring brunch and of course for Shavuot.<\/p>\n
