1/3 cupLukewarm water
2 1/4 cupAll-purpose flour
2 tbspSugar
Grated zest of ?lemon
3/4 tspSalt
6 tbspChilled unsalted butter
1 Whole egg
1 Egg yolk
TOPPING
5 tbspFrozen unsalted butter
1/4 cupSugar
Procedures:
1Combine the yeast and a pinch of sugar with the lukewarm water and stir until the yeast dissolves.
2Let stand for about 5 minutes, or until foamy.
3If the yeast doesn"t foam, begin again with fresh ingredients.
4Place the flour, sugar, zest and salt in a food processor.
5Process, turning the motor on and off several times, to mix well.
6Remove the processor top and slice the butter by ?tablespoonfuls, into the container.
7Turn the machine on and off serveral times, until the bits of butter are no longer discernible.
8Lightly beat together the egg and egg yolk.
9With the motor running, add the yeast mixture to the processor and immediately add the egg.
10Process for 45 seconds to knead the dough.
11Form the dough into a ball and set it in a lightly floured bowl.
12Sprinke the top of the ball lightly with flour.
13Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature for about 1 ?hours, or until doubled in bulk.
14Preheat the overn to 425 degrees.
15Adjust the oven racks to both the lowest and highest positions in the oven.
16Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and flatten evenly with your hand.
17With a rolling pin, gradually press out the dough into a 19-inch circle.
18Fold the dough in quarters, center the point in a 17-inch pizza pan, and unfold the dough to cover the pan.
19Fold a ?inch rim of dough inward to make a neat border, and make a decorative edge.
20Make the topping: with a swivel-bladed peeler or sharp knife, shave the frozen butter evenly over the dough, right out to, but not on, the border.
21Sprinkle with the sugar.
22Set the galette on the lower oven rack and bake for about 6 minutes, or until the border is lightly browned and the surface bubbles.
23Increase the heat to 475 degrees and move the pan to the higher oven rack.
24Bake for about 4 minutes, or until the top surface is browned in parts.
25Slice into wedges and serve.
26The galette should be eaten while hot and soft
