Whether you call it a crostata, a
galette or a rustic fruit tart,
this juicy, messy confection has a
charm that lies with its flavors
rather than its looks It hits the
same luscious, buttery, jammy notes
as a fruit pie, but instead of
being neatly trimmed, crimped and
latticed, it features hasty folds
and raggedy edges: perfectly
acceptable points of style Unlike
jewel-like tarts crowned with
perfect fruits, crostatas do just
as well with weeping, bruised
specimens, as long as you cut out
any obviously funky bits
