Tips & Secrets
- Using ready-made puff pastry sheets is the absolute secret to achieving perfect professional-grade layers consistently.
- Ensure the filling is 100% cold before stuffing to prevent the professional pastry from melting and becoming sticky.
- Sealing the edges with a fork not only secures the filling but provides a signature professional decorative touch.
- Baking at a high initial temperature is mandatory to ensure the butter between the layers creates the necessary steam for rising.
