Fruit stands are in full technicolor during summer. Berries tumble in jewel tones of blues and red while stone fruit can cover yellow green, sunset orange, and deep plum purple. Besides eating them fresh in hand, we love highlighting summer fruit in a variety of desserts. Learn how to choose, ripen, prepare and store summer fruit and how to make tender, flaky pastry for a galette technique that can serve you over the seasons. When the temperatures rise in our summer of August and September, we included a few no-bake recipes to free you from having to start your oven.
