Plain Puff Paste Homemade Kosher Recipe
Here's what you'll need:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small cubes
- 1/2 cup ice-cold water
Now, let's get cooking!
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Give it a good stir with a spoon.
2. Add the chilled butter cubes to the bowl. Using your hands, gently rub the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs. Be careful not to overmix!
3. Gradually add the ice-cold water, a little at a time, while stirring with a spoon. Keep adding water until the dough comes together and forms a ball.
4. Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead it gently for a minute or two until it becomes smooth.
5. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This will help the butter firm up and make the puff pastry flaky.
6. After chilling, take the dough out of the fridge and place it on a floured surface. Roll it out into a rectangle shape, about 1/4 inch thick.
7. Fold the dough into thirds, like folding a letter. Turn it 90 degrees and roll it out again into a rectangle. Repeat this process two more times.
8. Once you've completed the folding process, wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for another 30 minutes.
9. Your Plain Puff Paste is now ready to use! You can use it to make delicious pastries, pies, or even turnovers. Just follow the recipe of your desired dish and use this puff paste as directed.
