What is Puff Pastry Used For?
If you haven’t baked with puff pastry often, you may wonder what this easy-to-buy pastry is mostly used for.
Puff pastry results in a light and buttery, slightly crunchy pastry. It can be used for everything from turnovers (or strudel) like Apple Strudel for sweet and Krautstrudel for savory options.
It’s also delightful when used for making palmier (or Elephant Ears), pinwheels and even Salmon Wellington.
