awesome with homemade unipuff
WHAT
IS PUFF PASTRY?
Originating from France, classic puff pastry is
made using a dough called détrempe (pronounced day-tramp, a basic dough made
with flour, water, and butter) to which you add more butter, roll it out, fold
it, turn it, roll it out, fold it, turn it and on and on till you have made
several such turns. This process is called “turning the dough” or “laminating
the dough” and the idea is to distribute the butter evenly in layers throughout
the dough (laminating the dough layers, with butter layers

HOW
TO STORE THIS PUFF PASTRY?
Make sure the dough is wrapped tightly with plastic wrap. Even two layers to make sure it’s
not in contact with air so that it doesn’t dry out. You can wrap this again in
foil, or put it in an air-tight container as well.
This puff pastry dough can be frozen too, for up
to 2-3 months. After using the dough, the remaining scraps could maybe be re-rolled once. However, if you knead or handle it too much, the lamination
layers will be lost.
Recipe Notes:
- The most important thing to always keep in mind is that dough should be not soft or hard but smooth and stretchable
- If your dough is soft and margarine hard and when you roll out the dough then butter may come out and if your dough is hard butter cannot spread evenly in the dough and your puff pastry won’t make good
- A perfect puff pastry depends on good kneading and then rolling the more you roll out thin get the help of making layers
- Only two foldings are given to make this puff pastry for half an hour, don’t put it in the fridge while the dough is resting leave it on just kitchen counter
- After rising the dough must be the weight of the dough as we required half the quantity of unipuff in the dough
