Puff Pastry Ideas
Comments (21)Can't remember who posted this, but I tried them (I left out the caraway seeds because I don't like them). They are really good. ONION BRIE PALMIERS 2 medium onions, thinly sliced 3 Tblsp. butter or margarine 2 Tblsp. brown sugar 1/2 tsp. white wine vinegar or cider vinegar 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed 4 oz. Brie or Camembert, rind removed, softened 1 to 2 tsp. caraway seeds 1 egg 2 tsp. water In a large skillet, cook the onions, butter, brown sugar, and vinegar over medium-low heat until onions are golden brown, stirring frequently. Remove with a slotted spoon; cool to room temperature. On a lightly floured surface, roll puff pastry into an 11- x 8-inch rectangle. Spread Brie over pastry. Cover with the onions; sprinkle with caraway seeds. Roll up one long side to the middle of the dough; roll up the other side so the two rolls meet in the center. Using a serrated knife, cut into 1/2-inch slices. Place on parchment paper-lined baking sheets; flatten to 1/4-inch thickness. Refrigerate for 15 minutes. In a small bowl, beat egg and water; brush over slices. Bake at 375° F. for 12 to 14 minutes or until puffed and golden brown. Serve warm. Yield: 1-1/2 dozen. Another we really liked: SPINACH AND ARTICHOKES IN PUFF PASTRY 1 (10-ounce) pkg. frozen chopped spinach, thawed 1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped 1/2 cup mayonnaise 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese 1 tsp. onion powder 1 tsp. garlic powder 1/2 tsp. pepper 1 (17.3-ounce) package frozen puff pastry Drain spinach well, pressing between layers of paper towels. Stir together spinach, artichoke hearts, and next 5 ingredients. Thaw puff pastry at room temperature 30 minutes. Unfold pastry, and place on a lightly floured surface or heavy-duty plastic wrap. Spread one-fourth spinach mixture evenly over pastry sheet, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Roll up pastry, jellyroll fashion, pressing to seal seam; wrap in heavy-duty plastic wrap. Repeat procedure with remaining pastry and spinach mixture. Freeze 30 minutes; cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices. (Rolls may be frozen up to 3 months.) Bake at 400° F. for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Yield: 4 dozen. Source: Southern Living, Top-Rated Recipe, November 2000"....See MoreAnyone else fearful of using Phyllo or Puff pastry
Comments (29)Here is my recipe for Spanikopita. Delicious stuff and it freezes beautifully. I always try and have some in the freezer for unexpected company or a treat for the two of us. Just keep the sheets covered and you'll be fine. If it tears a bit don't worry. There are lots of folds to hide it. Sharon's Spanikopita recipe 16 Oz Phyllo Dough Thawed in the fridge For 24 Hours 10 Oz Frozen Spinach Thawed and of all liquid Drained 3/4 Lb Feta Cheese 1/2 Lb Cottage Cheese - About 1 Cup Pressed And Drained 1/4 lb Cream Cheese Softened 3 Eggs 1/4 Cup Fresh Dill Chopped Fine Salt Pepper Nutmeg 3/4 Cup Butter Melted In large bowl combine all ingredients except phylo and butter. Working with one sheet of phylo at a time, brush with melted butter and cut in 5 strips lengthwise. Place 1 spoonful of mixture at the bottom of each strip about 1 inch from the bottom,fold the bottom piece up over the filling and then fold up into~triangles. Fold like you fold a flag, to the left, up , to the right ,up etc. These can be made ahead and frozen for up to three months. When ready to cook: Place on a baking sheet and bake at 350 for 20 minutes or until golden. Serve warm I made these for a Chinese Cook Up last winter, they are very good . They Lose some of their crispiness but still taste great when reheated.

Comments (6)I cut my puff pastry in half and made one apple tart with lindac's "filling" and one without. "With" was better, but I am unlikely to ever make that recipe again. As instructed in the Pioneer Women, I tossed the apples with brown sugar. On both of the tarts, the brown sugar and apples made LOTS of juice which ran onto the cookie sheet and burned. Some of the burned juice stuck to the pastry and gave it a very bitter taste. If I were to make something like this again, I'd probably use lindac's filling with the apples, but make it in a more rustic tart form, so that the sides help contain the juices....See MorePuff Pastry and Phillo Pastry
Comments (13)These are a bit of work but are wonderful and freeze beautifully.

Freeze uncooked and cook from frozen When ready to cook:~Place on a baking sheet and bake at 350 for 20 minutes or until golden.Serve warm~ Don't let the name fool you this makes a very attractive appetizer , is drop dead easy and is always a huge hit. Stacked Pizza 7 sheets phyllo pastry 1/2 Cup butter melted 7 Tbl freshly grated parmesan 1 1/2 Cup grated mozzarella 1 sweet onion sliced thinly And Separated Into Rings 5-6 roma tomatoes sliced 1 Tsp oregano salt and pepper to taste ( I don't use any I find the parm salty enough and I forget about the pepper!!!) fresh herbs sprigs thyme oregano or rosemary Preheat oven to 375. Follow package instructions to thaw phyllo. Place 1 sheet of phyllo on baking sheet, brush with butter and sprinkle with 1 TBSP of the parmesan cheese. Repeat until all layers are used. Press down firmly so layers stick together. Sprinkle top sheet with mozzarella. Place onions on top then place tomatoes on top. Season with oregano. Bake for 20-25 minutes until edges are golden, and the bottom is cooked. Decorate with fresh herbs and cut into squares (squares can be cut in half to make two bite triangles) Notes: I slice the onions and then cut the circles in half to arrange on top. I also try and line the tomatoes up in a diagonal pattern, I don't place them randomly, and then when I cut it I cut the squares so each piece has 1 roma slice. I also don't measure anything anymore I just sprinkle the cheese. I use rosemary but I cut the leaves off the stems. I've often cooked it with the rosemary on it. I also line my baking sheet with parchment paper. These are very good and I like them becasue don't require deep frying which not something I want to be doing when I have company. Spring Rolls - Rachel Ray Via Woodie 1 Tbl vegetable oil or olive oil 1/2 red bell pepper chopped fine 2 stalks celery from the heart chopped fine 6 water chestnuts chopped fine 1/2 small onion chopped fine 1/4 Cup fresh bean sprouts a handful, chopped 2 6-ounce) cans lump crab meat drained flaked - or -12 Oz Cooked chicken 2 Tbl dark soy such as Tamari 1/2 Tsp dried thyme leaves eyeball it 4 (13 by 17-inch) sheets defrosted phyllo dough 3 Tbl melted butter Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Bake in the center of the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, until lightly golden all over. Very tasty and company worthy. Chicken Strudel (Lori) 8 oz mushrooms sliced 3 chicken breast halves boned,skinned and thinly sliced 3/4 c water 1/2 t salt pinch of pepper 1/2 bay leaf 2 T minced onions 1/4 c vermouth or dry white wine 4 T butter 1/3 c flour 1/4 c milk 2 egg yolks 1/2 c whipping cream 1/2 c grated Swiss cheese 1 T pimiento 1/4 c chopped parsley 1/2 lb phyllo dough leaves 1/2 c butter,melted 1/2 c dry bread crumbs In a saucepan, place mushrooms, chicken, water, salt, pepper, bay leaf and onions. Bring to a boil, and simmer 10 minutes. Remove mushrooms and meat with a slotted spoon and place in bowl. Boil down the cooking liquid to 1/2 cup. Remove from heat, add wine, and set aside. In a separate saucepan, melt butter, add flour, and stir constantly over medium heat for 2 minutes. Slowly add cooking liquid and milk;stir with a wire whisk until thick and smooth. Remove from heat. Slowly stir in egg yolks, whipping cream and cheese. Add chopped pimiento and parsley. Then add chicken and mushrooms, stir well and correct seasoning. On a dry kitchen towel, lay 1 phyllo sheet, brush lightly with melted butter, sprinkle with 1 tablespoon dry bread crumbs, top with another phyllo sheet, brush again with melted butter and sprinkle with bread crumbs. Repeat until 1/2 pound phyllo leaves are used.~ Pour chicken mixture in a band lengthwise down center of prepared phyllo sheets. Roll sheets up as you would a jelly roll. Carefully transfer roll to a greased baking sheet, seam side down, and brush top with remaining melted butter. With a sharp knife (a bread knife works well here) divide roll into 6 or 8 portions*, cutting halfway to two- thirds through the roll. Bake at 375 F. for 35 minutes until golden. *I usually get about 10 generous slices out of each roll. If I'm having several people over for brunch, I make 2 or 3. I'd probably double the recipe and make 2 for your party. Also, I make this up the night before I'm serving it. I cover it well(on the baking sheet) with plastic wrap, and then put a slightly damp towel over that. Then just bake as recipe instructs. It's wonderful! Lori This is similar to Katie's but I do find they puff up better if you chi8ll the slices before putting in the oven. Palmiers With Honey Mustard And Prosciutto (Craftyrn) 1 sheet puff pastry -- 18 x 11" 3 Tbl honey mustard 4 Ounces prosciutto -- thinly sliced 1 Cup Parmesan cheese -- freshly grated 1 egg 2 Tsp water Place the puff pastry on a work surface and spread the mustard over the top. Arrange the prosciutto evenly over the mustard to cover all the pastry, andthen sprinkle with the Parmesan. Lightly press the cheese into the prosciutto with a rolling pin. starting at one long edge, roll up the puff pastry like a jelly roll just to the middle of the dough; then roll up the other side in the same fashion,making two rolls that meet in the center. Using a serrated knife, cut the rolls crosswise into 1/2" slices. Place the slices on cookie sheets lined with parchment paper and press lightly with your hands to flatten Refrigerate for 15 minutes. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Beat the egg and water together in a small bowl. Brush the top of each palmier with the egg wash. Bake until puffed and lightly golden, about 10 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature. Servings: 20 on...See More- 5 years agolast modified: 5 years ago
