Not a quiche, not quite a tart, but a galette. A savoury rustic tart where you fold the pastry over on top of the filling to create an edge. We love galettes here! (You kind of cannot go wrong with the good looks of the pastry!)
Not to be confused with the buckwheat flour Breton galette which is more of a savoury crepe, galette is used to describe the free form tarts of France and beyond! We love the nutty pastry on this one and I am pretty sure it will show up again in another recipe. Delish!
