No Need for a Knitting Machine! Finally, Anyone Can Make Their Own Puff Pastry the Simple and Easy W
After much experimentation with several methods and recipes, I finally found this easy and light recipe. I'd tried a recipe that used butter mixed with flour instead of korsvet, but the results were still too dense and heavy, and didn't rise as well as with korsvet. With this method, I managed to achieve the desired puff pastry texture: crispy, light, and easily available ingredients.
I'd love for you to try this recipe and method. If you like, please share the results on your Instagram feed or stories and tag our Instagram account @vinastarjogja.
250 grams of high-protein flour can be substituted with all-purpose or medium-protein flour (2 cups)
30 grams of butter/margarine (2 tablespoons)
1/4-1/2 teaspoon of salt (if using margarine, no need to add salt)
120-125 grams of water (1/2 cup and 1 teaspoon)
120 grams of regular butter or regular margarine, available anywhere.
I filled it with chocolate chips and cheese; you can fill it with meat or other fillings as desired.
TIPS
*In this video, I rolled out the final dough quite thickly so the layers are visible after baking. If you want a softer result, you can roll it thinner, like instant puff pastry.
*Always bake at a high temperature at first. Once it has risen to its maximum, lower the temperature until it's crispier and crunchier (temperature and time are in the video 👆)
*Don't forget to preheat the oven for 15 minutes before baking.
