    here is a recipe for ruff puff - i took it from their website
    175g unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small cubes
    350g plain flour
    A good pinch of salt
    About 3-4 tbsp iced water, to mix
    Egg wash (beaten egg mixed with a splash of milk), to glaze
    Fennel seeds and flaky sea salt, to finish

      To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? He that has ears to hear, let him hear.
      Are you saved? Where will you go when you die? Heaven or hell?
      The Gospel, which means the Good News is the news that God Almighty, the Creator came in the flesh as Jesus Christ to take away the sin of the world. The one God is a trinity of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The Son came and laid down his own life to save ours. His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for our redemption with his own blood. On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him. Although God's creation was created perfect, having no death, sickness and disease, the creation became corrupted through Adam and Eve in them disobeying God. In this rebellion the creation became fallen through the curse of sin and mankind became separated from God. This world is fallen, but God offers reconciliation to him through his provision at the cross. Ultimately God will restore his creation to perfection when he returns but those that who reject his offer of redemption will remain condemned by their sins and go to hell.
      John 1:1,14 KJV
      In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and THE WORD WAS GOD. [14] And THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, and dwelt among us,
      1 John 3:8 KJV
      He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
      Isaiah 9:6 KJV
      For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty GOD, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
      John 1:10
      He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and THE WORLD KNEW HIM NOT.

    You are so freaking talented!!! I would love to have you as a neighbor. I live on Cape Cod in New England, and there are several houses that have wonderful people living here. One is a scalloper, one is an oysterman, one a lobsterman, and one a fisherman who catches flounder, cod, haddock, striped bass etc. One gal grows microgreens in a greenhouse for local restaurants. One owns a pie shop...where she sells both sweet and savory pies. One has a small farm and produces organic fruits and vegetables as well as organic free range eggs. Theres a fellow who owns a local food store and he brings butter, cream, spices, and things like cream of mushroom soup. He always brings a box or two of food for our pantry. Even the day old bread to make bread crumbs ! Sometimes he will bring 10 lbs of ground beef or pork. This is a tourist area where the population swells 20x or more for 8 to 12 weeks in the summer..The winter is just deadly quiet. In the winter, we meet on Wednesdays, to cook enough for everyone, then we share. Our local church has a massive commercial kitchen that we use. It is really a great social thing that we all do. We show up, and spend most of the day on Wednesdays together. Some might throw in the ovens a few dump cakes, or cobblers, made using the frozen berries gathered from the farm in the summer. Or, the kids might work on sugar cookies, and decorating them. There's always plenty of food, so after we all eat, then we make up some containers for each of us to take home, and we also make up some to drop by to some elderly neighbors. It gets us all out of the house in the Winter. Particularly when there is a huge snowfall. An Amish lady started this some 60 years ago. There's very few Amish people in the area here so it was wonderful for her to meet and befriend others. My grandmother was one of her closest friends. She rolled out her homemade pie crust until she was 95 years old. She canned jellie's, jams, and applesauce.She made incredible sticky rolls and breads. Anyway, this has been a long standing tradition here. I know my neighbors would go crazy trying to recruit you if you lived near us. Anyway, you absolutely rock !!!!

    I wish making the pastry was that easy! I think you have a very cold kitchen Gill ;-)
    I worked really quickly with fridge cold butter and iced water but still the butter had softened toward the last few "turns" and things started to get messy!
    I think another time, I would let the pastry chill in the fridge for half an hour before another turn and roll.
    That said, a brilliant tutorial and one other UA-cam chefs and bakers could learn from!
    Thank you Gill 😀

    They look amazing. Good tip about the breadcrumbs as my sausage rolls always seemed to leak a little

    I've made these several times - easier than you think. Taste amazing - never had sausage rolls like this. Truly worth the effort and after making them a few times, they can be knocked up quite quickly. Excellent recipe and presentation style.

    RECIPE CORRECTION: Ok, I just did a half batch to test the recipe. Came out good, but I spotted an error. The video instructions are fine (use enough water to ...), but whoever transcribed it on the River Cottage website (and all the sites that copy it) seems to have gotten the water amount wrong. 4 tbsp ice water (60 gr) is too little, by almost half, for 350 gr flour and 175 gr butter. I used the equivalent of 90 just now (45 for a half batch), and 100-120 is probably closer to ideal ... 60 is flat out wrong, IMO. Probably an arithmetic error in scaling the original. Oh, and the salt (I use med kosher) should be 1 full tsp per 350 gr flour ... not just a measly pinch.
    Oh and a TIP: if you lack fresh bread crumbs you can buzz a flour tortilla in your food processor to make your own. I make tortillas regularly, so I havent needed to buy bread crumbs since college.

      @Scott Smith TBH, I have no idea, because I dont own Gill's book (Hugh's yes, Gill's no ... not yet anyway). My OP was in response to the recipe in the video (I took notes), which I double checked against the linked website when I encountered the error I mentioned.

      BTW, i've since made the recipe several times more, and i'd like to reiterate that the Garam Masala is purely optional, so if you dont have any handy and dont feel like making your own (recipe upon request), feel free to skip it. Personally, I love Indian cuisine and I'm modestly well versed in it (both northern and southern), but the Garam Masala seems a tad out of place in this particular dish, esp given the title that leads people to expect it to taste like familiar style sausage. I tend to omit it, or replace with a mix of ground fennel and a little extra cayenne and garlic, to better match the italian sausage profile, but to each their own.

    Thanks for the recipe, i am use to making it with toasted fenal seeds, dill and sweet parika in the pork seasoning mix and spring onions rather than chives, for breadcrumbs we use german rye bread. This is how my Oma taught me but i will give your recipe a try the crunchy fenal seeds sound really appealing to me and i wonder how plain breadcrumbs will change the flavour.
    Thank you fo the video take care and God bless.
