But will they be compared to homemade cakes: crispy, fragrant, slightly dusted with powdered sugar? If you want to please home delicious puffs, our simple recipe will help you in this matter.

Homemade puff pastry

Sift 3.5 cups of flour into a bowl. 250 g of butter pre-soak. Thoroughly excise it with flour (use a special cut, grater or food processor). When the dough turns into small crumbs, add a glass of salty ice water and knead it with your hands, combining in a com. It is convenient to do this on a flour-torn table. The dough should turn plastic, then each pail with jam will be high and lush. Wrap it and place it in the refrigerator.

In the meantime, let's take care of the oil. It will take another as much - 250 g. We rub it on a large grater, we add half a glass of flour. We put it in the refrigerator.

After half an hour you need to get the dough. Roll it into the formation, trying to give it a shape close to the square. The thickness of the dough should be about 1 mm.

Take out the oil lump, smash it with your hands right through the bag, also forming a square. Roll with a rolling pin. This square should be so large that its tops reach the middle of the sides of the square of the dough. Take it out of the bag and put it in a diamond. The edges of the dough wrap so that their tops meet in the middle of the diamond. Repeat the folding of the corners another 2-3 times, then turn the dough and roll with a rolling pin. Do the procedure again. If the dough begins to melt and stick, let him "rest" in the refrigerator for 20 minutes. Now turn the square just in half, side to side, and roll 3 more times. Before forming again refrigerate.

Take a glass of sliced fruit or berries, fill with sugar (2/3 cup). Leave for an hour, then put on a slow fire. Bring to a boil and turn off. After cooling, repeat. Gem is cooked 3-4 times. At the end, blend with a blender, boil again and allow to cool well.

Formation of puffs

Slices with jam from puff pastry most often make a triangular shape. To do this, the rolled dough should be cut into squares with a side of about 10 cm, grease the middle with jam and wrap the corner. The edges and the surface are smeared with strong tea. This is an important point, because for the easiest puff pastry yolk can be heavy, and tea gives a shade, not heavier, and edges perfectly glue.

You can fold the square in half and not along the diagonal, but along the middle line, then the slices will turn out to be rectangular. Beautiful puffs can be made by cutting each square from corner to center. In the middle, spread the jam, and wrap the corners to the center through one, as if forming a children's turntable.
