Recipes
Nectarine, Honey and Pistachio Galette
Prep time: 15 mins
Cook time: 30 mins
Serves: 10
Ingredients
250g plain flour, plus extra for dusting
175g unsalted butter, cold, cubed
50g caster sugar
4 tbsp custard powder
5 ripe nectarines (approx.), stoned and cut into 5 mm-thick slices
3 tbsp runny honey
1 medium egg, beaten, for egg washing
2 tbsp demerara sugar
2 tbsp shelled pistachios, toasted and finely chopped
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas 7. Put a large baking tray in the oven to heat up (this will prevent a soggy bottom).
Step 2
To make the dough, put the flour, butter, caster sugar and a pinch of salt into a large bowl and rub together with your fingertips until sandy. Gradually add up to 70ml cold water, lightly mixing with your hands until you have a pliable dough. Knead in the bowl for a few mins until smooth; roll into a ball.
Step 3
Tear off 2 large sheets of baking paper. Place one on your work surface and dust with flour. Sit the dough in the middle of the paper and flatten with your hands. Dust with a little more flour, then top with the second sheet. Roll out the dough between the sheets to make a 35 cm-diameter circle. Remove the top layer of baking paper and trim as needed to create an even, rounded shape.
Step 4
Sprinkle the custard powder into the middle of the dough. Spread it out with your fingertips or the back of a spoon, leaving a 5 cm border.
Step 5
Arrange the nectarine slices over the custard powder in a pattern of your choice and drizzle over 2 tbsp of the honey. Fold over the pastry border so it overlaps the nectarines slightly. Brush the pastry edge with beaten egg and sprinkle with demerara sugar.
Step 6
Carefully slide the baking paper and galette onto the hot baking tray and bake for 30 mins, until golden and crisp. Remove from the oven and drizzle with the remaining 1 tbsp honey. Sprinkle over the pistachios and leave to cool. Leftovers will keep covered in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Tip!
Allow a little extra time for the galette to cool before serving.

Very disappointing nectarines
Over-ripe and rotten pack of ripen at home nectarines. Received order on Thursday and didnt try them until Sunday, but unable to eat them as they were rotten and brown inside. Not acceptable quality.

Awful nectarines
These were the worst nectarines I had ever eaten. Tasteless, sludgy - just thoroughly unpleasant. Everyone in our home that tried one hated it.

I bought these in Dec without much hope that they would ripen. But I was happily wrong, within 5 days in the fruit bowl they were perfectly ripe and delicious.

Awful
Sour, mushy. Very juicy though. But inedible.
