Recipe for Gteau Breton (as adapted from Nigella Lawson "How To Be A Domestic Goddess", published by Chatto & Windus 2000, available through www.amazon.com) For the Cake 225 g (8 ounces) plain flour, preferably Italian 00 250 g (9 ounces) caster sugar (I used superfine) 250 g (9 ounces) unsalted butter, cut into cubes
6 large egg yolks 25 cm Springform tin, buttered well (I used a 10 inch Fluted French Tart Pan with removeable bottom - gives the finished cake a nice look and is available at www.gobel.fr or at www.amazon.com) For the Glaze 1 tsp of egg yolk, from your 6 1 tbsp of water Preparation 1. Preheat the oven to 190 degrees Celsius (375 degrees Fahrenheit). Mix the glaze, and put aside while you get on with your gateau. 2. Put the flour into a bowl (I never bother to sieve 00 flour because it's so finely milled, but if you're using regular plain flour then do so), stir in the sugar and add the butter and egg yolks. 3. With the dough-hook attachment of a mixer, slowly whirr till you've got a smooth, golden dough. Scoop this dough into the tin, and smooth the top with a floured
4. Brush the gateau with the glaze, and mark a lattice design on top with the prongs of a fork.
5. Bake for 15 minutes, then turn the oven down to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit) and give it another 25 minutes or so until it's golden on top and firm to the touch.
7. For serving: either cut it in traditional cake-like wedges or criss-cross, making irregularly sized diamonds.
