Direcciones
- In a food processor, pulse flour, sugar, and salt. Add butter and pulse just to coat pieces with flour. Add shortening and do the same, pulsing to cover with flour - you will wind up with "pea-size" pieces of shortening. Transfer dough to a bowl. Gradually add ice cold water, tossing with a fork to moisten. Briefly and gently knead dough to form a ball. Set aside
- Place sliced peaches in a bowl and add 2 tbsp of sugar and toss. You can use any fruit--if not at peak ripeness I add 3 tablespoons of sugar.
- Preheat oven to 425 F. On a lightly floured surface roll out dough to a 12" circle about 1/8" thick. Gently lift and place this onto a cookie sheet covered with parchment.
- Starting about 1 1/2 inches from the edge, place peach slices on the dough from the outside to the center.Fold over the edge of the dough, overlapping the fruit.
- Whisk together the egg yolk and cream and brush this mixture over the rim of the galette. Sprinkle the remaining sugar over the galette and the rim.
- Bake until browned, about 20 - 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for about 10 minutes. Loosen the edges and center with a spatula. Lift the parchment to a cooling rack and carefully slide off onto the cooling rack or platter. Sprinkle / Sift edges with powdered sugar. Top with whipped cream or creme fraiche.
