Both Meilleur Ouvrier de France and head pastry chef at Saint Clair Le Traiteur, Lionel Lallement is offering three galettes des rois this year to tempt the taste buds of as many gourmets as possible.
First, he invites us to experience a magnificent fairytale journey with his Etoile du Berger galette.
To be savored like a veritable tasting ritual, this 2018 galette des rois unveils a puff pastry sprinkled with golden flakes. Beneath this crisp puff pastry lies a delicate base of wheat semolina, almond powder and honey.
This is followed by flavors of delicate orange zest enhanced by Smyrna grapes and candied orange, cradled by orange blossom water.
In the final notes, our taste buds are seduced by a few pine nuts and fresh chopped mint, combined with chopped pistachios.
And for the perfect tasting experience, Saint Clair has created a tea and herbal tea to match.
Lower in calories than an almond galette and significantly lower in fat, this 2018 galette signed Saint Clair will seduce your taste buds from January 2, 2018.
For the more traditional, Saint Clair offers two other galettes:
La Forêt Noire
Filled with an almond cream, dark chocolate and Amarena cherries, the Forêt Noire galette is accompanied by a mignonette of Kirsch to flambé it.
The Frangipane
This galette features a crisp, pure butter puff pastry, topped with authentic almond cream.
In keeping with tradition, Saint Clair doesn't forget the crown and the beans. This year, the crown features a coppery motif inspired by the starry skies of the Three Kings. The beans, round in shape, play on the design trend.
