La Cocotte Verte

Gamey red meat like duck pairs beautifully with a cherry sauce — the slight acidity of the fruit cuts through the richness of the meat. Red wine and shallots cooked until soft and sweet round out the sauce.

You know it’s summer when you see basket upon basket of beautiful fresh cherries in the farmer’s markets. This easy to make galette is a lovely way to end your meal with cheese and fruit instead of a typical dessert.
