Bon appetit!

Hi guys! Do you even know what a galette is? I learned about this now popular delicacy from Instagram. There biscuits are in great demand. But for some reason, in Runet, I did not see much excitement about this shortbread pie.

So just in case you don't have IG, I thought I'd bring you up to date and make this strawberry shortbread pie. But, as you understand, absolutely any fruit-berries can be shove into the filling and even vegetables. I also added some apricots in addition to strawberries.

Well and if you are not interested in rustic pies, then I have two amazing strawberry shortcake recipes for you: one - and the other with.

And besides classic recipe I'll give you wonderful biscuits recipe for this shortbread pie curd dough . Believe me, it will turn out no less tasty, but much more useful.

But first, let's figure out why the biscuit?

Biscuit or shortbread pie?

Surely you are well aware favorite cookie our childhood - biscuit.

This name came to us from French cuisine, where biscuits are usually called flat cake-shaped products, unleavened or with added fat.

By the way, the main advantage of these products was that biscuit cookies were stored for up to 2 years, and baking in butter - up to 6 months.

In fact, this is the same shortbread cake, only it is cooked in a free form in a rustic style, without using any special forms - right on a sheet of parchment.

And so that the juices that stand out from the filling do not flow out, the edges of the biscuit are wrapped inside.

In short, as my husband explained, it is the same as pizza, only instead of tomatoes - fruit.

In the summer, I definitely prefer these pies, because they are fast, they are clean and, most importantly, they are very tasty.

And it’s delicious due to the fact that the cake is very thin, and the filling plays a dominant role.

What mistakes should be avoided when working with shortbread?

1. Too wet dough. Do not add too much liquid to the dough. Sand dough in such open pie should not be wet. It’s better to let it crumble a little when working, it’s okay, we have a rustic style.
2. Too thin or thick dough. If the dough for such a shortcake is rolled out too thin, then as a result it will turn out to be rubbery. A thick dough may not be baked. The ideal thickness of shortcrust pastry is 0.5 cm. Such a cake will remain crispy and bake well.
3. Too juicy filling. If the filling releases too much juice, then even the most properly rolled out dough will get soggy. Therefore, for juicy fruits such as strawberries or cherries, it is desirable to add starch. You can also sprinkle the dough with semolina or breadcrumbs.
4. Too many toppings. Do not put the filling with a mountain. Remember that a biscuit is a flat cake.
5. Unappetizing stuffing. To add a delicious gloss to the filling, place a few slices of butter on top before baking.

Remember? Now get down to business!

Such a pie with strawberries will decorate any festive table despite the fact that it is not at all difficult to cook it. You can buy ready-made shortbread dough, then cooking in general will take a minimum of time. I made my own dough, which I love very much.

Knead the elastic shortbread dough from the above ingredients.

We brew the starch with water, add to the strawberries and bring to a boil.
While the strawberries are cooling and thickening, we will do the dough.

I baked this cake in a round removable form, with a diameter of 24 cm.
We must line the bottom of the form parchment paper.

We divide the dough into two parts.
From one part of the dough, roll out a layer, a little more than a baking dish, so that we get sides.

We roll out the second part of the dough thinly and cut out as many hearts as possible from it.

Pour the strawberry filling into the mold.

From above, starting from the edges, we begin to overlap tightly with hearts. Leave a small hole in the middle.

Lubricate the cake with yolk and sprinkle with sugar.

Bake the strawberry shortcake for about 30 minutes at 200*C. The crust should turn golden.
