Question 1

What is the difference between a pie, tart, and a galette?

Accepted Answer

Tarts are sophisticated, pies are homey, and a galette is somewhere in the middle. Tarts only have a bottom crust, and it is a lot thicker than pie or galette crust. A traditional pie is typically covered on top and bottom with dough. A galette is a free form flattened pie dough that you fold halfway over the filling.

Question 2

How can I keep my galette from getting soggy?

Accepted Answer

You do not want to start with dough that is too moist, first of all. Then, we use corn starch to keep it from getting too juicy. Another tip is to dust the dough with breadcrumbs or semolina flour before you add the filling. This will keep your crust crispy and firm and you can add all the cherries you want.
