Barley Free Classic Savory Galette Dough
Rustic, free-form, and endlessly versatile, a savory galette is one of those recipes that looks impressively chef-y without demanding much from you at all. This dough comes together with just a handful of pantry staples — all-purpose flour, butter, salt, sugar, apple cider vinegar, and ice water — so there's no guesswork about hidden grains sneaking in. The apple cider vinegar is a small but smart addition that keeps the gluten relaxed and the finished crust beautifully tender and flaky. Keeping the butter cold and working quickly is the real secret here; those pea-sized butter pieces are what create those gorgeous, shatter-crisp layers once baked. Once it's chilled and rolled out into a rough 12-inch circle, you're ready to pile on whatever filling your heart desires — roasted vegetables, caramelized onions, cheese, you name it. It's the kind of foundational dough recipe you'll come back to again and again, especially when you want something homemade that feels a little special.
