Frozen puff pastry

Description

Frozen puff pastry is a thin, multi-layered dough made from butter (or margarine) and flour, which, when baked, results in distinctly crispy, fluffy, and buttery layers with a golden, flaky surface and a delicate, slightly salty flavor. Thanks to its laminated structure, it creates a "feathery" texture that beautifully lifts both sweet fillings and savory compositions. Nutritionally, it is a calorie-dense product with a high content of fats and carbohydrates, providing quick energy but relatively low in vitamins and minerals, so it is advisable to consume it in moderation as part of a balanced diet. It is perfect for tarts, croissants, fruit parcels, pastries, quiches, and snacks. It should be stored frozen at around −18°C, preferably in its original packaging or an airtight container; thaw in the refrigerator or bake from frozen and do not refreeze after thawing.
