Galettes des rois
Almond
For 8-10 pp (10”): $49
Pistachio
For 6-8pp (9”): $47
In France, the crispy golden pie filled with almond frangipane, is shared for the Epiphany, the sixth day of the New Year, to celebrate the visit of the Biblical Magi to newborn Jesus.
Inside the galette is hidden
a little porcelain figure, the “fève”.
So be careful : don't break a tooth
and don't swallow it!
The person who gets it in his or her slice becomes the queen/king of the day, gets a crown and has to choose her/his king/queen among the guests.
If you are serving the galette today, keep it outside in its bag. If you are serving it tomorrow, store it in the fridge, in its bag.
We recommend slightly warming it before serving.
10 minutes in the oven at 300°F rather than in the microwave : it will make it the most delicious it can be! Let it cool another 10 minutes before enjoying it!
