  • Ingredients
  • Recipe
  • wheat flour500 g
  • cold water1 cup
  • butter (at room temp.)500 g
  • salt1 to taste
  1. Pour the flour and salt into a large bowl. Open a hole in the middle, like a volcano. If you have a planetary mixer, use it to prepare this recipe, it will be easier.
  2. Pour the water into the hole in the center and, with your hands, mix the flour with the water in circular motions, from the inside out. When you get a compact and smooth dough, set it aside. If you notice that the dough is too soft after kneading for 2 to 3 minutes, add a little more flour. If it's too dry, add a little more water.
  3. To prepare homemade puff pastry, the butter must be at room temperature: solid but slightly softened. That way, it will be easier to incorporate into the dough. Cut the butter into 8 cubes of the same size. If you want to use margarine instead of butter, use it slightly chilled to achieve the same consistency as butter.
  4. Sprinkle flour on a surface and, with a rolling pin, roll the dough into a rectangle. Place 2 cubes of butter in the center and close, folding the two ends of the dough over the butter. Then smooth with the rolling pin, crushing the butter into the dough. Leave in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  5. Take the dough out of the fridge and open it again in a rectangle shape with the help of the rolling pin. Place 2 more pieces of butter in the center of the dough, and fold as shown in the image below.
  6. Smooth again with the roller. Repeat the same process two more times, reserving in the fridge for 30 minutes between each step. It is important to repeat the process of rolling out the dough, adding the butter, folding and rolling it out again, because this is what gives the characteristic layered look to the puff pastry.
  7. Once you've added all the butter to the dough, keep the puff pastry in the fridge for 1 hour and it's ready to use! If you prefer, you can freeze it. For this, wrap well in plastic film and remember to remove from the freezer about 1 hour before use.
