Puff Pastry MagicSimplified Sensations for Autumn Entertaining
Puff pastry, the most elegant and sophisticated product in the bakers repertoire always adds luxury to any preparation in which it is used. It turns even the most humble preparation into party fare. The classic method for making puff paste is often intimidating for the home cook. In this class we will utilize a streamlined method for making puff pastry and we will manipulate the dough in exciting ways to create appetizers, main courses and desserts perfect for fall and holiday entertaining.
A spectacular bonus of this versatile pastry is that it actually benefits from freezing, a bonus as schedules become more frenetic near the holiday season.
