Rustic Blueberry-Pecan Galette

Healthy Fact of the Day

Blueberries are packed with antioxidants, particularly anthocyanins, which may help protect against heart disease and certain cancers. Pecans provide healthy fats, fiber, and various minerals, contributing to heart health and potentially aiding in weight management. While this galette is a sweet treat, its homemade nature allows for control over sugar content and portion sizes.

Ingredients

 

For the crust:

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup finely ground pecans
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 3-4 tbsp ice water

 

For the filling:

  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)
  • Coarse sugar for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Mix flour, ground pecans, sugar, and salt.

  2. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  3. Gradually add ice water until dough forms. Wrap and chill for 1 hour.

  4. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

  5. Mix blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla for the filling.

  6. Roll out dough on a floured surface into a 12-inch circle.

  7. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.

  8. Spread filling in the center, leaving a 2-inch border. Sprinkle with chopped pecans.

  9. Fold edges of dough over filling, pleating as you go.

  10. Brush crust with egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar.

  11. Bake for 35-40 minutes until crust is golden and filling is bubbly.

  12. Cool before serving.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Mexican Mimosa

Fresh-squeezed orange juice provides vitamin C, folate, and potassium while delivering natural sweetness without refined sugar. Using a dry sparkling wine keeps the cocktail lighter than sweeter alternatives, and the tequila’s agave base means fewer congeners than darker spirits. As always, enjoy responsibly and alternate with water to stay refreshed throughout your Taco Tuesday celebration.

The Eggplant Manifesto: In Defense of Summer’s Most Misunderstood Vegetable

Eggplant skin contains nasunin — an anthocyanin antioxidant found in the deep purple pigment of the skin that has demonstrated specific neuroprotective properties in research, appearing to protect cell membranes from free radical damage. Eggplant also contains significant amounts of chlorogenic acid, one of the most potent antioxidant compounds found in plant foods, which has been associated with reduced inflammation and improved blood pressure regulation in clinical studies. The specific preparation of flame-roasting eggplant whole — which is common in Mediterranean and South Asian cooking — preserves these compounds in the flesh while the skin is removed, making it one of the more nutritionally complete eggplant preparations available.
