Savory Mini Galette Tarts
Wow guests with these rustic tarts. (We’ve done all the prep work already!)
Ingredients:
Farm & Larder galette dough, chilled
Farm & Larder spinach-mushroom filling
1 large egg, whisked
Method:
1. Preheat oven to 375° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Unwrap chilled dough and place on a well-floured surface. Let sit until the edges become soft enough to roll.
2. Roll dough to about â…›-inch thickness, adding flour as necessary to prevent sticking. Using a round cutter (the mouth of a large wine glass works too) cut out circles of dough and place on the parchment lined pan. Collect dough scraps and reroll until dough is gone.
3. Place about 1 tablespoon of prepared filling into the center of each dough round. (The amount of filling will vary depending on the size of the dough circles. You need about ¾-inch of dough left around the edges for folding.)
4. Fold one small section of dough up onto filling. Rotate and fold another section to create a pleat. Continue until it is pleated all the way around. Press firmly to seal pleats together.
5. Brush the whisked egg on the galette crusts, then place in the oven. Bake until the crusts are golden brown. Remove and cool slightly before serving. You can also bake the tarts ahead of time and reheat just prior to serving.

Red Wine-Poached Rhubarb
This wine-poached syrup is incredibly versatile: Try it served warmed over a scoop of ice cream or drizzled into your morning oatmeal!
Ingredients:
2 cups red wine
½ cup sugar
1 tablespoon honey
1 small cinnamon stick
2 whole cloves
2-4 allspice berries
1 pound rhubarb, trimmed and rinsed
Method:
1. In a wide, non-reactive sauce pan, heat the wine, sugar, honey, and spices.
2. Cut the rhubarb into pieces, roughly the size of carrot sticks.
3. Once the wine is almost boiling, poach the rhubarb in two batches, standing vigilant with a slotted spoon. When just tender, remove the rhubarb and put it in a bowl and poach the remaining rhubarb. Depending on the rhubarb, each batch will take 1 to 3 minutes to poach.
4. Reduce the poaching liquid over moderate heat until you have about ¾ cup. Pour over the rhubarb pieces and let stand for a few minutes before serving.
Storage: The compote can be made up to a day in advance. Keep in the bowl, covered at room temperature, until ready to serve. Rewarm before serving or serve at room temperature.
Variation: Once cool, add a basket of raspberries or blackberries, or sliced strawberries. Or cook the rhubarb with fresh cherries, pitted and cut in half.
