Why Didn't I Think of This Easy New Method Before? Homemade Puff Pastry is Easy. Cake
Hello everyone, this time I'm making puff pastry using a new method unlike any other. It's very easy and fast. No refrigerator, no eggs, no yeast, of course.

Recipe from @vinastar channel
100 grams unsalted butter
1 and a half teaspoons salt (if using margarine, reduce the salt amount)
500 grams bread flour (high protein)
200 grams water (weighed for accuracy)
250 grams korsvet
* If you don't have Korsvet, you can use regular margarine. Here's a video on how to make puff pastry without Korsvet. The latest video was uploaded in November 2024. https://youtu.be/lHlEK4gjRJ8?si=rSW6Bb5LO6Si4PPv
*Update: I've also tried using Korsvet specifically for Danish pastry (Gold Billion brand). This method also produces a crispier, lighter, and softer texture. The texture is softer, but not as soft as margarine/butter, so it's still easy to use. Add 20-40 grams of water to the flour mixture to balance the softer texture of Korsvet Danish pastry, making it easier to roll out.
*If you want a more buttery puff pastry like those found in Sultan's pastry shops, you can use Korsvet made from butter specifically for laminating (butter sheets). It's also widely available online and much more expensive than Korsvet margarine.
