Puff pastry spoons with cheese and salmon : your aperitif even more special!
How to Create the Curved Puff Pastry Spoons
Use the inner carton of a roll of towel paper, plastic wrap, or foil, and wrap the carton with foil. Carefully place the spoon over the roll to create a bend.
Puff Pastry Variations
There are many different fillings you can add to your puff pastry spoons:
Caramelized onions and goat cheese
Cherry tomato, mozzarella, and fresh basil
Spinach and feta cheese
Bacon and cheddar cheese
Sauteed mushrooms and truffle oil
Ham and Swiss cheese filling
You can even add a sweet filling:
Nutella and fresh berries filling
Nutella and sliced banana
Tips
Keep the puff pastry cold before baking for a flaky texture. The puff pastry should be completely thawed so it’s pliable enough to roll out but still cold. The best is to leave it to thaw overnight in the fridge instead of leaving it on the kitchen counter at room temperature.
The oven should be hot (preheated to 180°). If you see the puff pastry spoons brown too quickly, you can place a sheet of foil loosely on top.
Brushing the puff pastry with egg wash gives it a shiny and golden crust.
Experiment with different seasonings and herbs to add flavor to the spoons. Instead of white sesame seeds, use coarse salt, black sesame seeds, or nigella seeds.
How to Store Puff Pastry Spoons
Store the puff pastry spoons (without their filling) in an airtight container (in the fridge) for up to 2 days. Reheat the pastries in the oven to make them crispy again.
