Before embarking on the development of complex baking, a novice hostess should study 5 simple recipes with ready-made puff pastry, among which there are puffs, cookies, pies and buns. The easiest way to learn how to cook different dishes is by photo or video recipes. In addition, you can experiment with the types of fillings and spices to make your dish special.

What can be made from puff pastry

From yeast

The finished dough with yeast has a characteristic sour taste. After cooking, products made from it are more lush and tasty. They make good buns and savory meat and fish pies. Unlike the unleavened version, the layers here are several times smaller, they do not turn out to be so light and crispy, but the number of calories is slightly less.

The unleavened or yeast-free product is more commonly used to make sweet confectionery. Tongues, corners and puffs are crispy and tastier because of the thin layers.

3. For the convenience of working with it, divide the dough into several parts.
   Roll each part well. The thickness should not be more than 5 mm.
4. Before placing the filling, grease each layer with melted butter.
5. Place the filling and spread evenly over the dough.
6. Here attention! Layers of dough can be stacked one-on-one to create a pie or brownies if the pie is cut into pieces before baking. But you can twist the rolls. Each housewife decides for herself, taking into account her mood and family preferences.
7. We twist the roll. Lubricate the roll with whipped yolk on top.

How to make yeast-free puff pastry dough?

The process of preparing puff pastry without yeast is quite laborious and takes from 2 to 3 hours. That is why few housewives decide to make it on their own, and most often they buy a ready-made semi-finished product in a store. But if you want to make this dough yourself, you can get down to business right now.

To do this, sift flour (2 cups) into a bowl and make a depression in it. Combine a beaten egg (1 small or egg yolk), water (160 ml), salt (¾ teaspoon), vinegar (1 tablespoon) in a separate container. Pour the resulting liquid mass into the depression and knead the elastic dough. After that, it must be wrapped in plastic and left in the refrigerator for at least half an hour.

Now you need to prepare the butter by mixing in flour (2 tablespoons) and forming a square out of it. The temperature of the dough and butter should be the same. After that, remove the dough from the refrigerator, roll it out in the shape of a square, but 2 times larger than the buttery piece. Put the prepared butter in a corner in the center of the square, and wrap the edges with an envelope. After that, you need to pinch them and you can start rolling "away from yourself."

When a rectangle 15 mm thick is obtained, the adze is folded three times (from right to left), covered with foil and sent to the refrigerator for 30 minutes. The cooled dough is rolled out and folded in the same sequence 3 more times. Do not forget to refrigerate it for 20 minutes. It is no longer necessary to unfold the previously prepared dough, and each time start rolling to a thickness of 15 mm directly over it. Thus, the required layering is formed.

Secrets of making puff pastry pies

It does not matter which puff pastry is used in the preparation of the pie, homemade or ready-made. In order for the baking to be successful, you should adhere to some secrets of the work.

1. Make sure to puncture the surface of the dough before placing the cake pan in the oven. This will provide steam to the outside, the product will bake evenly, and the surface of the cake will remain flat, without characteristic bubbles.
2. Only cover the top of the dough with whipped yolk before baking, not the sides. Otherwise, the yeast-free puff pastry will not rise well enough.
3. You should not additionally grease with fat, since there is already a lot of oil in the puff pastry, some of which will melt during the cooking process and remain on the baking sheet.
4. The optimum temperature for making such a cake is 200 degrees. If the temperature is set below this value, then the oil will simply flow out of the dough. The cake will be dry and not fluffy enough.
5. Ready-made puff pastry (semi-finished product) must be defrosted only on the lower shelf of the refrigerator. To do this, it must be transferred from the freezer in advance. Defrosting the dough in a room, in a warm place, or using a microwave oven for this is strongly discouraged.
