STRAWBERRY AND PISTACHIO GALETTE



Strawberry and Pistachio Galette image

With a double filling of homemade strawberry compote sitting on top of a layer pistachio frangipane, this elegant galette is a perfect way to showcase ripe summer berries. It is a bit more demanding to make than many other galettes, but you can do it in stages, making the dough, the compote and the frangipane a few days ahead, then bake on the same day as you plan to serve it so the pastry stays delightfully crisp. And if you miss strawberry season, make this with raspberries, blackberries or blueberries, adjusting the sugar in the compote to match the sweetness of the fruit (taste and add more sugar for sour fruit, less sugar for sweeter fruit).

Time 2h30m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 1/4 cups/280 grams all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling the dough
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 cup/226 grams unsalted butter (2 sticks), very cold, cut in 1-inch pieces
4 ounces/113 grams cream cheese, very cold, cut in 1-inch pieces
1 teaspoon lemon juice
3 to 4 tablespoons/45 to 60 milliliters ice water
1 pound/454 grams strawberries, hulled and halved
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice, plus 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
1/2 cup/100 grams plus 1 to 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
3/4 cup/100 grams shelled raw pistachios, plus 2 tablespoons chopped raw pistachios
1/2 cup/113 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), softened
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon brandy
1/4 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
Turbinado or Demerara sugar, as needed
Confectioners' sugar, for serving

Steps:

  • Make the dough: In a food processor, pulse to combine flour, salt and sugar. Add butter and cream cheese and pulse until lima-bean-size pieces form. Drizzle in lemon juice and 3 tablespoons/45 milliliters ice water, then pulse just until dough comes together, adding another tablespoon/15 milliliters of water if dough looks dry. Pat into a disc, wrap in plastic, and chill at least 1 hour and up to 3 days.
  • Make the strawberry compote: Combine approximately 2/3 of the strawberries in a small pot with the lemon juice and 1 to 2 tablespoons granulated sugar to taste, depending on sweetness of the berries. Cook over medium heat until strawberries start to break down and juices are thick and syrupy, about 12 minutes. Let cool. Compote can be made up to 5 days ahead and stored in the refrigerator.
  • Make the frangipane: In a food processor, process 3/4 cup/100 grams shelled raw pistachios and remaining 1/2 cup/100 grams sugar until finely ground. Add butter; pulse until combined, then add 2 eggs, the brandy, the lemon zest and the almond extract (if using), and pulse until smooth.
  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Dust a work surface with flour. Roll out dough to a 16-inch circle (it will be just slightly thicker than 1/8-inch), then transfer to parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Leaving a 3-inch border around the edges, spread the frangipane filling evenly over dough. Using a slotted spoon, dollop strawberry compote over frangipane, spreading any syrup gently so the compote and frangipane remain in separate layers, then fold dough edges up over the filling. About 6 to 8 inches of the filling should be exposed.
  • In a small bowl, whisk remaining egg with 1 tablespoon cold water, then brush over the dough. Sprinkle with turbinado sugar and chopped pistachios. Bake until edges are deeply golden, 40 to 50 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. To serve, top with remaining halved strawberries and dust with confectioners' sugar.

Pistachio-Ricotta Cheesecake image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 4h45m

Yield 10 to 12 slices of cheesecake

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/3 cup roasted unsalted pistachios, plus 2 tablespoons chopped for topping
5 ounces shortbread cookies (about 16 cookies), such as Lorna Doone
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3 large eggs
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 pound fresh ricotta cheese (about 2 packed cups)
1/2 cup unsweetened pistachio paste, stirred if separated
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon pure almond extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 drops green gel food coloring
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Position a rack in the lower third of the oven; preheat to 325˚. Spread the whole and chopped pistachios on a rimmed baking sheet (keep them separate) and bake until toasted, about 10 minutes. Let cool.
  • Set aside the chopped pistachios in a small bowl. Pulse the toasted whole pistachios in a food processor along with the shortbread cookies and granulated sugar until finely ground. Add the melted butter and pulse until the mixture looks like wet sand. Press the mixture into the bottom of an 8-inch round springform pan. Bake until set around the edges and no longer puffed, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack; let cool 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the filling: Beat the eggs and granulated sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until pale and thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the ricotta, pistachio paste, lemon zest, vanilla and almond extracts and salt and continue beating until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add the green food coloring and beat until combined.
  • Pour the filling over the crust. Bake until the cheesecake is puffed and the edges are set but the center still jiggles slightly, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Transfer the cheesecake to a rack and let cool to room temperature, 2 to 3 hours. Run a thin knife around the edge of the cheesecake to loosen, then remove the springform ring. Serve at room temperature or cover and refrigerate until chilled, at least 2 hours or overnight. Dust with confectioners' sugar and sprinkle with the toasted chopped pistachios before serving.

Unsalted butter or nonstick cooking spray, for the pans and cooling rack
1 cup roasted unsalted pistachios
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup vegetable or canola oil
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Frosting, recipe follows
Donut Bagels, recipe follows
Sprinkles, for garnish
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
8 ounces (1 cup) cream cheese, at room temperature
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
Big pinch kosher salt
2 drops pink gel food coloring, with a spot of brown, preferably AmeriColor Deep Pink and Chocolate Brown
Marzipan, kneaded with food coloring to make lox, tomatoes, capers and onions
Powdered sugar, for dusting
Mixture of poppy seeds, sesame seeds, a pinch of kosher salt and turbinado sugar, for seeded topping
6 mini store-bought plain or lightly-glazed cake donuts, preferably Hostess Donettes
Simple syrup, for adhering toppings
Plain cream cheese, at room temperature, for schmearing on the donut "bagel"

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the middle position. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease two 8-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
  • Place the pistachios in a food processor fitted with the blade attachment and grind them until you have small crumbs. Measure out 1/4 cup of the crumbs and set them aside for the filling.
  • Pour the remaining crumbs into a large mixing bowl. Add the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk to combine. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, oil, extracts and 3/4 cup water. Whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, then pour into the cake pans and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, begin checking for doneness at 28 minutes. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn them onto a greased cooling rack and cool completely.
  • Level the cake rounds and spread the top of one cake with a layer of Frosting. Sprinkle on the reserved ground pistachios. Place the other cake round on top, cut-side down, then frost all over with the remaining Frosting.
  • Place the Donut Bagels on the top of the cake. Decorate the top and sides of the cake with the sprinkles.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, or in a large mixing bowl using a hand mixer, beat together the butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar and salt until smooth. Add the food coloring and whisk until fully combined.
  • Color and shape the marzipan on a powdered sugar dusted surface. Cut into circles for tomatoes. Smash into oblong shapes for salmon. Roll into little balls for capers. And to make the onions, just brush a bit of food coloring on the edges of slivered marzipan.
  • Put the seeded topping mixture in a small bowl. Using a pastry brush, brush the tops of the donuts with simple syrup, then dip into the seeded topping, pressing down slightly so everything adheres. Cut the donuts in half and spread a thin layer of cream cheese on the cut sides of the top and bottom pieces. To the bottom halves, add the marzipan salmon, tomato, onions and capers. Top with the seeded donut halves.

Time 2h35m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 19

cooking spray
3 cups unsalted pistachios
2 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
¾ cup unsalted butter
1 ¾ cups white sugar
5 large egg whites
½ cup sour cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup whole milk
1 drop green gel food coloring
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
½ cup unsalted butter
8 cups powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 drop green food coloring

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray three 8-inch round cake pans with cooking spray. Line each pan with a round piece of parchment paper, and spray with cooking spray.
  • Prepare the cake: pulse pistachios in a food processor until finely ground, 10 to 15 pulses. Transfer 1 1/2 cups ground pistachios to a bowl with flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda; whisk until well combined and set aside. Place remaining ground pistachios, about 1 1/3 cups, in a bowl and reserve for finishing the cake.
  • Beat butter and white sugar for cake in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium-high speed, scraping down the sides as needed, until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add egg whites and beat on high speed until combined, about 2 minutes.
  • Mix in sour cream, vanilla extract, and almond extract until combined, about 1 minute. Add flour mixture in batches on low speed until completely incorporated, about 2 minutes. Mix in milk and food coloring until just combined, about 1 minute.
  • Divide batter evenly among the prepared cake pans. Gently tap each pan on the countertop to spread and flatten batter.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of each pan removes cleanly, 22 to 24 minutes. Cool cakes in the pans for about 10 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen cakes, then invert carefully onto a serving plate or cooling rack. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • While the cakes are cooling, prepare buttercream: beat cream cheese and butter in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Mix in powdered sugar in 1/2-cup increments on medium-low speed, allowing sugar to be completely incorporated before adding more, until combined, about 4 minutes. Mix in vanilla and food coloring on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Place one cake layer on a serving plate or cake stand. Top with 1 cup buttercream and 1 tablespoon ground pistachios, and spread evenly over the surface using a spatula. Place second cake layer on top; top with 1 cup buttercream and 1 tablespoon ground pistachios, and spread evenly over the surface. Place third cake layer on top, and spread 1 cup buttercream evenly over the surface. Spread 2 cups buttercream evenly around sides of assembled cake and smooth with a spatula. Transfer cake to the refrigerator and chill for 30 minutes.
  • Remove cake from the refrigerator and spread remaining buttercream over top and sides of cake until sides are smooth and top is billowy. Using a small offset spatula, make a spiral pattern on top of the cake. Press remaining ground pistachios into sides of the cake.
  • Slice and serve immediately or chill in an airtight container until ready to serve. If chilled, allow cake to come to room temperature before serving.

Time 4h10m

Yield Serves 12 to 16

Number Of Ingredients 18

10 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pans
1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for pans
1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons shelled unsalted pistachios (3 1/2 ounces)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon orange-flower water (optional)
2 large eggs plus 2 large yolks, room temperature
1 cup sour cream, room temperature
2 3/4 cups fresh ricotta (about 1 1/2 pounds)
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar, plus more for serving
4 ounces semisweet chocolate, coarsely chopped (3/4 cup), plus 2 1/2 ounces more, melted (1/2 cup)
4 ounces candied orange peel, cut into a 1/4-inch dice

Steps:

  • Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter two 8-by-2-inch round cake pans. Line pans with parchment; butter parchment. Dust with flour, tapping out excess. In a food processor, finely grind pistachios. Remove and reserve 1/4 cup ground pistachios, then add flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to processor and pulse to combine.
  • Beat butter with granulated sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add orange-flower water; beat to combine. Beat in eggs and yolks, one at a time, thoroughly combining after each addition and scraping down bowl as needed. Add pistachio mixture in three batches, alternating with sour cream and beginning and ending with pistachio mixture.
  • Divide batter evenly between cake pans; smooth tops with an offset spatula. Bake, rotating pans once, until tops spring back when lightly touched, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer pans to a wire rack; let cool 10 minutes. Turn cakes out onto rack; remove parchment and let cool 1 hour. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
  • Filling: Meanwhile, combine ricotta and cream in bowl of food processor; process until smooth. Add salt, vanilla, cinnamon, and confectioners' sugar; process to combine. Transfer mixture to a bowl and stir in chopped chocolate and orange peel. Refrigerate in an airtight container at least 1 hour and up to 2 days.
  • Cut each cake horizontally into 2 layers. Stack on a cardboard cake round or a plate; brush edges with melted chocolate, then pat some of reserved ground pistachios onto chocolate. Separate, then refrigerate in a single layer until set, 10 minutes. Place one cake layer on a cake stand, bottom-side down; spread 1 1/2 cups filling evenly over top, then place second layer on top. Repeat with remaining filling and cakes, finishing with a cake layer, bottom-side up. Refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to overnight. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and remaining reserved ground pistachios.

PISTACHIO CAKE ROLL WITH RICOTTA CREAM AND STRAWBERRIES RECIPE



Pistachio Cake Roll with Ricotta Cream and Strawberries Recipe image

Provided by BobLongo

Number Of Ingredients 22

For pistachio cake roll:
3 large eggs
100 grams sugar
Pinch of salt
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 heaping tablespoon pistachio paste
Zest of 1/2 lemon
100 grams all-purpose flour
30 grams pistachio powder
1/2 tsp. baking powder
For ricotta cream filling:
125 ml. heavy cream
150 grams ricotta cheese
1 tsp. vanilla extract
50 grams sugar powder
For strawberries:
200-250 grams strawberries
2 tbsp. sugar
2 tbsp. brandy
For serving:
Sugar powder
Slightly toasted chopped pistachios

Steps:

  • One 30 cm long cake roll Preheat oven to 180c degrees and line oven pan lightly greased baking paper. Pistachio cake roll: in a mixer with a whipping-attachment put eggs, sugar, salt and vanilla and beat for 3-4 minutes until thick white foam. Add pistachio paste and lemon zest and continue beating until the mixture is uniform. Add in flour, pistachio powder and baking powder and fold into a uniform mixture. Spread the mixture on a baking oven with baking paper in an even layer. Bake for 6-8 minutes, until golden and springy to the touch. Cool completely before filling. Prepare the strawberries: wash and remove the leaves. Keep about 5-6 whole strawberries for decoration. Cut the strawberries into cubes and put in a small bowl. Add in sugar and brandy and stir well. Leave at room temperature for about half an hour to absorb flavors. Ricotta Cream: whip heavy cream, ricotta, vanilla and powdered sugar until you get an airy, stable cream. Fill and roll: spread generous even layer of ricotta cream on the roll. Sprinkle over strawberry cubes (possible with a little syrup, but not too much). Roll tight, sprinkle a little powdered sugar, garnish with ricotta cream, strawberries and a little chopped pistachios. Refrigerate and serve.

Tips:

  • To make the pistachio cake batter, whip the egg whites and sugar until stiff peaks form. This will help the cake rise and be light and fluffy.
  • Gently fold the egg whites into the pistachio mixture to avoid deflating it.
  • Bake the cake roll in a preheated oven at 375°F for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • As soon as the cake roll is out of the oven, roll it up in a damp towel and let it cool completely. This will help prevent the cake from cracking.
  • To make the ricotta cream, beat the ricotta cheese, cream, and sugar until smooth and creamy.
  • To assemble the cake roll, spread the ricotta cream over the cooled cake roll and top with strawberries.
  • Chill the cake roll for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.

Conclusion:

The pistachio cake roll is a delicious and impressive dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its light and fluffy texture, rich pistachio flavor, creamy ricotta filling, and fresh strawberries, this cake roll is sure to be a hit.
