    I saved this recipe with no intention of ever actually making it (like many) but I wanted to make empanadas and decided to try it. Holy moly. It's so flaky and delicious. I'm surprised at the simplicity and perfection of this recipe 😱😍

    THIS IS THE BEST RECIPE. I HAVE MADE IT MULTIPLE TIMES WITH GREAT SUCESS. I would suggest a change that instead of grating your butter with the wrapper on, cover the stick in the cold flour mixture and it should prevent you from melting it and also keeps your hands dry! You don't have to risk getting pieces of paper in your dough. Happy baking!

    This is incredible pastry, I have made it a couple of times and any over freezes well. Your tip on freezing butter and then grating it has changed the way I bake. So not only for this pastry when I make cheese scones I freeze the butter first, grate it and then I use a hand blender (which I always refer to as my knuckle duster) to make the 'bread crumbs' so my hot hands are never touching the flour or butter. In this way for cheese scone it takes all of 30 seconds to reach bread crumb consistency. The scones are light and airy. So thank you for this great tip which I have adapted to other recipes.

    At 73 & pandemic,
    i started baking... one of the recipes i have made is this puff pastry. i liked the idea of grating the frozen butter that makes it so much easier to mix in. i used my grating blade on my food processor. i only have a small amount that gets stuck on the edges. Then I put the butter in a container and back in freezer until it's needed. I leave the remainder in the food processor, and then change to the mixing blade (ninja) and finish mixing the dough with it. it's fast and the dough doesn't get heated up. i then wrap it in food service film and back in the fridge... the result is that I have the dough ready when i want to make something. I comes out great and has multiple uses... Thanks for sharing

    Gemma Stafford I used to buy 1-2 lemon every grocery trip or sent my husband to make sure I had about 6 lemons a month. Since I subscribed here & started perusing your website, I'm up to about a dozen or so lemons a month & I add a bit of juice or zest to everything. :) Granted, I've always used lemon-scented cleaners b/c I'm allergic to pine. Hubby says it's a shame we're too far north, albeit we live in the south but not far enough south to adequately grow a lemon tree topiary. But hey, I did pull about a dozen plump, ripe, red cherry tomatoes off the tomato plant we grew in a planter pot! They are beautiful. The big-boy tomato plant is loaded with tomatoes too but they're still green & we're fighting a mild case of root rot. It's in check though. Everyone here seems to battle root rot on tomato plants. Luckily it's pretty easy to control.

    • @biggerbolderbaking
      @biggerbolderbaking  6 років тому +1

      I'm thrilled you've been using more of your lemons - a great thing to have on hand really. Having your own vegetables is lovely, Sammi! You can make a variety of great things with fresh tomatoes. You're lucky! :)

    Okay..I tried this method twice and was not able to make it..but today I tried again..and wow!! It came out crunchy, with lots of flakes and delicious. I must say it is slightly different from puff pastry but it tastes the same. The traditional puff pastry has flakes which are separated from each other nicely.In this one, the flakes are not that far apart from each other but it tastes the same..I want to say few things that you need to keep in mind so the pastry comes out perfect.
    1) please..everything should be cold. I put the bowl inside the freezer too like she said. Next time I'm also going to put the grater.
    2) correct measurements which is given in her website should be used. Initially, I just used my own estimation but when I failed twice I read her recipe.
    3) be quick to make the dough as being slow will just be useless as we tried to freeze everything earlier. And the butter might start melting. So better do it quick.
    4) dont forget to add lemon in the cold water
    5) just add little water to make the dough and make proper crumbs. Dont add too much water. Add little by little.
    6) do not knead the dough or make it smooth, once a ball is formed .its formed..
    7) finally put it in a cling film and refrigerate it..first two times I made the dough, i wrapped in pastry sheet which didnt give me proper result.
    I'm sure this will help you from failing. I failed twice but on my third try, it was awesome. I'm now going make it again with her recipe using the exact measurements. The third time I only did 1/3 rd of the the recipe as I didnt know how it was going to turn out..but tomorrow I'm gonna make more. Happy cooking guys !!

    Easy puff pastry
    Gemma Stafford
    2 ⅓ cups (11 ½ oz/ 325g) plain flour14 tablespoons (7 oz/198g) butter, frozenPinch salt8-10 tablespoons chilled water1 tablespoon lemon juice
    Instructions
    Place your butter in the freezer for a minimum of 2 hours, but preferably overnight.
    In a jug, mix together your water and lemon juice and set aside.
    In a large bowl mix together the flour and salt. Now I’m going to sound like a home economics book, but you need everything to be cold to yield great pastry, so feel free to put the bowl of flour in the fridge to chill.
    On the larger side of a grater, grate the frozen butter directly into the flour mix. Stir the butter into the flour in with a knife. Frozen butter is my secret ingredient. The colder the butter the flakier the pastry.
    So remember, this is a shortcut short crust pastry, so we aren’t folding and doing that whole process. I’m all for process, but if you get a great result with less work, then I’m all for that too.
    Add in the liquid, holding a little back just in case you don’t need it all. Using your hand, bring your pastry together gently. You want to add just enough water to bring the pastry together. Too much water will not yield you a flakey dough.
    Bring the dough together to form a ball. Wrap in cling film and place in the fridge for a minimum of 1 hour. You can refrigerate it for up to 3 days or freeze to use at a later day.
    Note: Once you put pastry in the fridge and it relaxes it will get a little wetter so factor that in.
    To use your pastry: Follow instructions required by the recipe you are making. Alway bake in a HOT oven for best results.

    Hi Gemma! Thank you for posting this recipe! I am a huge fan of puff pastry and love your time saving technique with the frozen butter (it worked awesomely with the chocolate croissants)! Quick question...does the pastry still need to be rolled out and folded in order to create layers (like in the traditional version) or is it ready as is? Thank you!

    Gemma thanks for the recipe. I have used it twice, it is very easy to do and quick to make. I did have to use a little more water to bring it together and the bowl was clean when I brought the pastry together. I have made a couple of pies with the pastry and they were great. I do use perforated bakeware (with a tray under them) this prevents the need to blind bake and also allows some of the fat to run off.

    If I can offer two suggestion that I find make making rough puff a breeze..
    One is grate very cold but not frozen butter into the flour while gently mixing so it doesn't stick, then pop the mix in the freezer for awhile
    Or blitz cold butter with flour in processor until butter is pea sized, then freeze..
    Easier on the hands and the flour gets nice and cold too..

    I use this technique when making biscuits, although I use milk when making them.
    I also roll and fold the dough a few times chilling between folds an the results are similar to the grands biscuits, seems like the few times I fold the dough the more layers it creates. Love the idea of not folding it at all though, thanks, definitely going to try it out.

  • @HooriX
    @HooriX 8 років тому +6

    I don't understand how it is supposed to become as layered as in normal puff pastry (as said in French, feuilletage) There's another type of puff pastry called rough puff pastry, which I'm sure you must know. I thought it would be like that, but there's still no rolling out. I think its crucial as to the layers to be created. It looks more like shortcrust pastry to me 😕😕 I mean I don't know I'm no expert.

    • @r2rob251

      You're right, you will never get layers with this recipe, I guess it's a shortcut but she shouldn't have called it "Puff pastry" when it's not, it's confusing specially for someone that may not know how puff pastry actually it's made.

      It’s called PASTRY, and no it isn’t classic puff pastry obviously. Classic puff pastry takes a LOT of time, but it’s not the only way to get flakey puff type pastry. This would be what I’d call a kind of rough puff pastry, which gives the same layering effect as puff, tho perhaps not as much loft, but enough for most applications.
