Critical Success Points

  • Properly caramelize the sugar‑water mixture to 118 °C.
  • Achieve a smooth praline without lumps by blending.
  • Seal the edges of the two pastry discs without crushing them.
  • Make vents to prevent the galette from cracking during baking.

Safety Warnings

  • The caramel is very hot; handle with care and wear kitchen gloves if necessary.
  • Use the oven with heat‑resistant gloves.
  • Be careful with the sharp knife when cutting the outline.
