Claire Saffitz Makes Rough Puff Pastry | Dessert Person

Follow along as Claire makes a delicious puff pastry recipe from scratch. This recipe, a hybrid of pie dough and traditional puff pastry, relies on a series of rapid folds to flatten slices of butter into thin sheets within the dough, which then release steam during baking and produce a flaky, layered effect. The key to the flakiest pastry is to keep it very cold, so feel free to return the dough to the refrigerator as frequently as needed while you work. Stick around for a bonus recipe as Claire walks us through how to make Palmier cookies.

Isn't it adorable how Claire says she's going to put the cookies in the freezer?...we all know there's not going to be room in there! Can't tell you how much I enjoy watching you bake. You are a very talented teacher and baker. Thanks to my dear daughter for introducing us!

"Cut that out" "Never." Vinny knows what the people want.

Claire: "Cut that part" Claire: "Edit that out" Vinny and Kyu: 🙃

I love how confident I feel in my abilities to recreate these desserts when I am watching the show in contrast to the flaming hot mess I am when actually trying to recreate these desserts.
-
“they puff. they puff roughly.” lmao
-
“i promise you it will come together” and that ted talk was brought to you by claire saffitz while rolling out rough puff pastry

Instead of disposable plastic wrap, I use an old sliced bread bag. Cut along one seam, it folds out to a large rectangle. Uncut, it works well as a produce bag. I find it thin enough to be similar to the single-use products, but thick enough to be wiped off and reused. I've been making my own bread for a while, but keep a few around for this reason. Not plastic-free, but not buying a new product!

The rock music when Claire beats the puff pastry with the rolling pin lol 😂 I love you Mr editor
-
I havent finished the video but just watching th thumbnail I am FLABBERGASTED by the idea I could make "Palmitas"(Palmiers) in my house. To me they were the ultimate pastry I'd buy at a bakery for breakfast or at an airport or buy for parties as a kid.

thank you so much for making it in a glass bowl! it really helps to visualize how the dough looks through every step

Claire improving my day and my week one epically delicious recipe at a time. Things jumping out of Claire’s fridge, which is as full as mine is empty.

Count Spatula is getting jealous of all the love the bench scraper is getting this episode.

The best time of the week is upon us once again

Bonjour, Claire! I just stumbled onto your video and within just a few seconds was hooked. Hurrah! I don't know if you have brought this up, but doing what you are doing by teaching us your marvelous ideas and techniques is something this grandma can use to bring her grandkids into the kitchen to build wonderful memories. #1 - Watch your video (pencil and paper at the ready). #2 - A trip to the store for any special ingredients. #3 - Make something yummy while rewatching your video. #4 - (The best part) eat your creation! #5 - Forward your video to family and friends! See? You are filling the world with both wonderful food, sweet memories and lots of love! Thanks so much!
