Puff pastry basics

As with the real thing, we found that the following precautions are necessary to avoid lopsided puff pastry and ensure a successful rise.  To prepare: thaw frozen pastry on the counter until pliable but still chilled(20 to 30 minutes).

If the layers are pressed together, the dough will not rise evenly.  When using a knife: make sure it is sharp, and...

When the outer leaves are softened, pull the head out of the water and trim off the blanched leaves with a pair of tongs. Repeat the process as many times as necessary to get the number of blanched leaves you need.  Chef...
