Tips And Techniques For Meat Puff Pastry

Why is my puff pastry soggy? If you leave uncooked puff pastry out for too long before using it, the dough will become soggy because the butter will melt. Simply chill it in the fridge to solidify butter again. Another reason could be they were baked too close together and didn't get a chance to evenly bake and air out. Furthermore, another reason is that the filling was heavily water-based and that excess liquid got absorbed into the pastry.

How do you use puff pastry? Use it as a flaky crust for desserts such as turnovers, for appetizers like this, or to hold savory or sweet fillings. The possibilities are almost endless.

Do you poke holes in puff pastry? No, do not do this because this releases all the steam and will cause the pastry to become flat. For this recipe, you want a puffy flaky crust.

How do I know when the beef puff pastry is done?They are typically done when they become golden brown on top and firm along the edges and they also rise and become "puffy."

How many squares do I cut in total? There should be 18 (3x3inch) squares. This means 9 squares per sheet of pastry puff. There should be 2 sheets.

Make sure the edges are pressed together– Because this prevents the filling and cheese from oozing out from the sides during baking.

Do I thaw the puff pastry before cutting it? Yes, this is very important because if it's not thawed, it would be rock solid and you can't cut it. It will break if you try to put force on it.

Don't over-fill-Because the filling can leak out during baking and make a mess.

Storage

Refrigerate– They taste best served immediately, but leftovers can be stored in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 2 days. They will not be as crispy.

Freeze– This is not recommended because the pastry will become soggy upon thawing.

Reheat– In the toaster oven or stove for just a short time, watching to make sure it doesn't burn. You can also reheat them in the microwave but it will not be as crispy.
