Pistachio Financiers with Rhubarb and Sour Cherry Compote (Gluten-Free)

I am very pleased with this dessert.  It is a tiny, tender, pale green cake paired with a tart, floral, pink compote.  One of the many things that I love about financiers (and compotes actually) is that they taste better

Finally, a good gluten-free pizza crust

Until recently,  I have had a resigned attitude toward making gluten-free pizza crust at home.  The only really good gluten-free pizza’s I had eaten had been made in a wood-fire oven or on a grill and I don’t own either
