Sweet Cherry Galette

BEST PASTRY CRUST EVER!

So flaky, so easy, requires only a cheese grater. Thank you lady from O Pistachio! Here's the link to her Strawberry Galette: http//opistachio.blogspot.com/2009/05/strawberry-galette.html

We (as in my roommate Patricia and I) used the pastry recipe (again, I can't stress enough how AMAZING this pastry is), but switched up the filling to one of sweet cherries, almond extract, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, and a dense sprinkling of flour. Do this first, and let it sit until you have to use it. Be sure to strain before you have to use it, or the galette will be drippy!!!

Endless filling possibilities are entering my brain as we speak: the onion/tarragon filling from a tart-gone-by, heirloom tomato, apple, pear/gorgonzola, INFINITY!!

(Serve with homemade honey-vanilla whipped cream like we did)
