Sorry, what is Breton and why are people using it interchangeably with Briton?
Do you all actually mean Brittany, as in France?
Idris__ t1_j27yc36 wrote
Yes, Bretons in french are the people living in Brittany

Just to say I love your country! I’ve spent many happy times there on holiday and one day hope to live there. I have a little pouch of Sel de Guerande that I treasure and my heart is happiest by the Breton coast.

what is it
InstructionOk5946 OP t1_j25e75v wrote
Typical French dish with a froment crepe, salmon and goat cheese

aha thanks.. and most of the filling is everywhere? it looks like it is only protruding from the center

Yeah the filling is folded up inside of the crepe but since it’s a a circle folded into a rectangle you have a gap in the middle.

Is this supposed to be a Breton Galette?
InstructionOk5946 OP t1_j25hrj2 wrote
It is

That looks unlike Galettes I've had in Brittany, you should get yourself over there and have the real deal
InstructionOk5946 OP t1_j25i7gv wrote
The owner was Briton and I know how to do it myself so yeah it’s a real one

*Breton
A Briton is old English for someone from Britain
InstructionOk5946 OP t1_j25imh3 wrote
Though that Breton could be translated by Briton
Stonefly_C t1_j25j0b5 wrote
Could be a Celtic thing, there were a lot of Celts in Britain and Brittany back in the day

Ok :)

Definitely Galettes from Brittany, been to Saint-Malo recently, exactly like this. The dough is darker than the crêpes one as it's made with buckwheat flour.

I'm Breton. It looks exactly like a galette from here.

Ahhh I can smell the butter from here. Delicious! Breton galettes are some of the most satisfying foods I’ve had. I like mine simple.. ham, Emmental and tomatoes.

Had me confused at first...I was thinking that salmon looks brown and weird...then I saw it was wrapped in a galette which I've never seen. Interesting...being French Canadian I know a galette as being a desert cookie cuz that's what my grandparents called them. Makes me wonder how it tastes like.

Do you want a simple recipe of galette ? Here you have it : ham and cheese galette You need : a froment galette, a pan the size of your galette, another pan, a slice of ham, shredded cheese and an egg Step one : in the small pan, fry an egg (the yolk should be still liquid) Step two : while your egg is cooking, in the large pan, throw your galette with half of the cheese, the ham and the other half of the cheese Step three : put your egg on the galette Step four : fold your galette like a little present 🎁 :) Step five : salt pepper and some chive on the yolk NB : once you threw your galette in the pan you need to go the fastest as possible or your galette will break instead of fold so cook your egg before the galette Then enjoy 😉
