1 egg
3 grams Grey Brittany salt (0.11 ounces)
250 grams light buckwheat flour (8.75 ounces)
50 grams all purpose flour (1.75 ounces)

Directions
Galette Batter1. Whisk 1 cup (250 ml) of the water with egg and salt to combine.
2. In a separate bowl, mix both flours together. Make a well in the center. Gradually whisk in water mixture. When you have a smooth paste, whisk in remaining water to make a thin batter. (The consistency similar to 35% cream.) You may not use all 500 ml (2cups). Set aside at room temperature for 2 hours or refrigerate overnight.
3. Stir melted butter into batter when ready to cook galettes.
4. Oil your galettier with a lightly oiled cloth. Pour a small ladle full of batter in the center. Using a wooden rake, spread batter gently to sides to form a 35 cm circle (about 13 inches). When the edges are beginning to crisp and lift, flip carefully using a flat wooden spatula. Cook the galette 1 minute more on the other side.
5. Stack galettes and keep covered with a damp cloth at room temperature. Makes 12 to 15 galettes nature.

2. Fold sides of galette into center to cover ham and form a square. Flip and cook other side until hot and crispy. Serve immediately. Makes 1 galette complete.
