As a note to lovers of culinary experiments, I suggest you take a very interesting option - delicious and unusual baked puff pastry in the oven at home with cheese and pears.

Basic rules for preparing and baking puff pastry in the oven

1. If you bought frozen puff pastry, defrost it only at room temperature.

2. Roll out the dough in one direction so as not to disturb the structure of the layers. The thickness of the rolled sheet must be at least 3 mm.

3. You need to cut the dough with a sharp knife. This way the edges will not stick together and the dough will rise well when baking. A dull knife will crush the edges and they will not “bloom”, this will affect the fluffiness.

4. After placing the filling, do not brush the edges of the products with egg, otherwise they will stick together in the oven and will not be able to separate.

5. If you place the filling inside the dough, pierce the finished products with a fork in several places. This will allow them to bake well and the dough will be smooth and free of bubbles.

6. There is no need to grease the baking sheet with oil, since puff pastry usually contains a sufficient amount of oil. If you are still afraid that it will stick, lay down parchment paper and place puff pastry products on it or simply sprinkle the baking sheet with flour. Some housewives also recommend simply pouring a little water into the pan - as it evaporates, it will give the products additional fluffiness.

7. Preheat the oven well before baking.

8. During cooking, do not open the oven, even if you really want to check the readiness of the products. If you open it, the dough may settle due to the drop in temperature.

Hello! Here is a selection of topics with answers to your question: At what temperature and how long should pies be baked in the oven? (they turn out hard for me)

Preparing puff pastry takes a lot of time, so many housewives prefer to buy it in the store. Why not, if there is such an opportunity. However, not everyone knows how to bake puff pastry correctly so that the baked goods turn out truly tasty and the dough is light and airy.

How long to bake puff pastry in the oven

Another important question that concerns many housewives is how much and at what temperature to bake puff pastry. An insufficiently high temperature can lead to the fact that the inside of the product will not be baked, the fat will melt, and the baked goods themselves will not be multi-layered. A too high temperature, on the contrary, will lead to burning of the top layer. How to be?

Bake puff pastry at 220 degrees for 5-10 minutes, then switch to 180 degrees and bake for another 15-20 minutes. The dough will be airy and crispy.

However, baking time and temperature for puff pastry are quite relative. It all depends on the size of the products and the type of dough itself.

Answers from experts

L.Fiore:

If you are using ready-made ice cream puff pastry, there are general rules to follow. First the dough must thaw. If it is frozen in layers, they need to be separated from each other. The dough layers must be thawed individually for 20 minutes. Then each layer of dough must be moistened with cold water, placed in a stack and rolled out on a cutting board into one layer to the desired size and thickness. Roll out the dough with a rolling pin first from right to left, then in the opposite direction, then from top to bottom and bottom to top. Puff pastry always shrinks in size when baked, so the layers must be rolled out larger than when prepared. To prevent the dough from deforming, the products prepared for baking should be placed in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes. Puff pastry is always baked on a baking sheet, not greased, but moistened with cold water. The water evaporates during the baking process and adds additional volume to the dough. For the same purpose, you can spray the bottom of the oven with water. During baking, margarine or butter added to the dough expands in volume and releases the liquid dissolved in the dough. It turns into steam, lifting the layers, separating them from each other and causing the dough to flake. If these layers were processed incorrectly or kneaded too quickly, the flour gluten prevents the liquid from evaporating and the dough does not flake. Therefore, to form puff pastry, use sharp knives, notches or dough cutters that do not compress the layers. It is best to immediately roll out the remaining dough after molding and prepare small pastries from it. If there are too many leftovers, wrap them in foil and put them in the refrigerator. It is baked at a temperature of 200 degrees in a preheated oven. If the bottom burns, you can put a bowl of water or an empty baking sheet down.

Janessa:

It is better to place it on special baking paper. Oven - 25-30 minutes is enough (in general, it looks like it will turn golden). As for the degrees, we just stick it in a hot oven and that’s it.

Aviel:

try to eat it right away and don’t bake it, maybe it’ll be fun

Marina Luzhetskaia:

I have a Teflon-coated baking tray, I don’t grease it. I don’t spray it, it doesn’t burn. I heat the oven to 250, after 10 minutes I lower the temperature to 200. It bakes for an average of 30-35 minutes. I mostly buy ready-made frozen dough, defrost it in the refrigerator from -10 hours to 2 days. I selected the manufacturer empirically. The only problem is that sometimes the filling leaks out and burns, but everything comes with experience. Good luck!

Liona-STRO:

Yeast - 25-30 minutes. Yeast-free 30-40 minutes.

peoplemila:

Defrost, and then roll out into a not very thick layer, if in time, then as soon as they are browned. Brush well with egg yolk.

Olga Nikolaevna:

until ready) usually 25-30 minutes at 180 degrees. The most delicious thing is to beat the egg whites with sugar, add cranberries or currants, mix, cut the puff pastry into squares, put a little egg white mixture on each square and bake))) simply and deliciously!

OSA:

It all depends on your oven. I read a recipe that says you need to bake puff pastries for 15-20 minutes. And mine was baked in 30 minutes.

How long should you bake puff pastry croissants?

Perhaps this is the most popular pastry made from puff pastry. You can also make sweet croissants (jam, cherries, honey, chocolate, bananas, condensed milk, cinnamon with sugar, etc.), or you can also make them with fillings such as cheese with mushrooms, ham, etc.

Puff pastry croissants are baked in the oven for 30 minutes at a temperature of 180-200 degrees. The oven must first be preheated to the required temperature and only then place the baking tray with baked goods in it. Semi-finished flour products are placed at a distance of 2-3 centimeters from each other.

Here's another cooking secret. Housewives advise keeping the croissants under plastic wrap in a warm place for 15-30 minutes before baking. This will allow the dough to rise, which is especially important for its “homemade” version.

Answers from experts

Lyubov Kuznetsova:

Yes, you don’t need to grease the baking sheet with anything. Because there is plenty of oil in the puff pastry - it will already be released from the dough during baking. !!and your baked goods will not burn. But with oil, if you also pour it on the baking sheet, the bottom of the pies will simply burn, and the dough of the pies will not rise with additional oil - you will end up with a crushed bottom layer!!! just put the baked goods on a dry baking sheet and that’s it!

Nicole:

the baking tray needs to be greased. butter and cooks very quickly, once it browns on top it’s ready

Tatiana Kuzmenko:

no need for foil, flour, etc. the baking sheet can be greased with a little fat, margarine or sunflower oil. Read on the packaging, but generally 15-20 minutes at a temperature of 180-200 degrees

Anna Goldinstein:

According to the rules, puff pastry should be baked at a temperature of 210-230 C. But as usual, we bake at 180 degrees for 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the dish..

Irina Budilova:

You can put a silicone mat (special for baking) and it will bake well and come off without any problems))

BELLA Vera:

Just LIGHTLY moisten the baking sheet with water, when it’s browned, try to lift it with a spatula: if it bends, it’s not ready, if it rises in a whole layer, you can safely take it out.

Valkyrie:

it comes off very easily from the pan if made according to the classic recipe... I don't smear at all... but you can play it safe and moisten it a little with water or apply oil...

Natalie:

I always use baking paper

Galka Galkina:

It is best to use special baking paper for this. Bake at 180-200 degrees for 20 minutes

nemo:

If the baking sheet has a non-stick coating, nothing will stick.

Elvaira:

Puff pastry itself is very oily. And the fat that comes out after heating it is quite enough to prevent the dough from sticking.

KTMcheg:

Grease a baking pan/tray with butter or margarine, whatever you have. For me, paper is a shortage. It bakes for 15-20 minutes at 180C, depending on the oven and filling.

The Executioner's Wife:

It is necessary. At 180-200. 20-30 minutes.

McAl Georg:

Did you make them with yeast?

Tatyana Yakovleva:

I bake at 180 degrees for 25-30 minutes if the dough is puff pastry))

Svetlanka:

Holy shit!... for the first time I hear that puff pastry is put into the oven to prove for 60 minutes (((defrost it at room temperature and “make your own Galatea”)))

makpal kobdabaeva:

Until browned, further fried.

Zhamilya Akhmetova:

There are two types of puff pastry: yeast and without yeast, the first requires proofing, the second does not.

Olga Alexandrova:

30 minutes at 180 degrees

GHOST*)):

You already baked everything yesterday, I hope it turned out well)) because this temperature option, in my opinion, is generally quite suitable.

In general, there are other options, and everyone chooses what they like, what they are used to - the main thing is to understand the essence of the processes that are happening with baking at this time))

Puff pastry is made with yeast - then they work with it as with yeast, that is, after they have given the shape to the products, they must proof them according to the same rules so that the products increase in volume, and then they go into the oven for baking.

Puff pastry (unleavened) dough is more convenient because it is faster)) as I understand, this is exactly what happened to you yesterday))) After the dough products have been shaped, they are immediately sent to the oven for baking, otherwise in a warm place they will “float” because there is quite a lot of oil in the dough.

But as for the temperature...)) There is a double temperature option, for example: First, 220-230 for 5-7 minutes, during this time the products rise well and acquire a golden color. It is the high temperature that helps them rise well, “swell”)) Then reduce the temperature to 160-180 and bake for another 10-15 minutes until ready, at this time the dough inside and the filling are baked - sometimes the product has a filling, it is not so dry inside , like puff tongues. In this mode, I made puff pastries with cottage cheese like khachapuri, and the tongues also turned out well in this mode. And it’s faster than waiting an hour for the oven to cool down)))

But I also like your temperature option, and specifically for the tongues, because first the products will rise, and then the oven will gradually cool down and during this time the tongues will not burn, but most likely all the layers will simply dry well - and for products without filling, in fact, this is what is needed)) well, you still need to look after them) The tongues should turn out tender and crumbly))

How long to bake puff pastry pizza

Another popular dish made from puff pastry. Puff pastry pizza is baked for 20-25 minutes at a temperature of 180-200 degrees.

The sausages in puff pastry are baked for the same amount of time.

We hope our tips will help you please your household with successful and delicious baked goods.

You can make puff pastry yourself, but it’s time-consuming, difficult, expensive, and what the end result will be is completely unpredictable. Factory dough always gives a 100% guaranteed quality result, because it is made not with the rolling pin of a weak housewife, but with professional machines.

I once wrote that I cooked it myself, and it worked, but I invested so much time and effort, it’s such a hassle…. no, I played around and it will be. Ordinary yeast, especially if you have a bread machine, can be made in a time or two: it’s cheap, and always a five-plus. Only it is completely different from weightless layered bliss.

But just buying ready-made dough is not enough; you can easily ruin it - for example, roll it out with a rolling pin in different directions, and then put it in a cold oven or at a temperature for regular baking (180 degrees). That's all! We get shoe soles, get disappointed and switch to store-bought baked goods.

Croissants are prepared from both yeast puff pastry and yeast-free dough. I like yeast better, but choose according to your taste, I can’t recommend it. =) They come not only “sweet” - with chocolate, cream, jam, berries or boiled condensed milk, but also “salty” with chicken, pate, fish, mushrooms, but my favorite ones are with ham and cheese.

But you don’t have to make croissants, you can just make envelopes with fillings. Mmm... But they need to be pierced with a fork before baking so that they puff up evenly, without bubbles into a “ball”.))

If you want to roll out thinner, the rolling pin should go only in one direction, so as not to damage the inner layers, not to “mix” them, not to shift one in relation to the other. Be careful, if it's from left to right, that's the only way. If you roll it thinner than 3 mm, the dough may not rise; if it is thicker than 5 mm, it may not bake.

Cut with a very sharp knife so that the edges do not squeeze, stick together and also “puff up” well during baking. When placing it on parchment, there is no need to lubricate it with anything - there is a lot of fat in the dough. It is recommended to spray the baking sheet and the raw products themselves with water before putting them in the oven to increase moisture and make the crust more tender. I don't, I like it crispy.

Puff pastry should be baked at a temperature ranging from 220 degrees to 250 degrees. The fat between the layers should boil quickly and then the dough will rise as fluffy as possible. And if you heat up the oven more, the outside may burn, but the inside may not yet be baked. It is recommended to keep it for about 15 minutes, but I look at the appearance - the crust is baked and browned with culinary gold - that's it, take it out! This is 10-12 minutes.

And then watch the family gobble it up and lick their lips - they don’t need to lose weight, and puff pastry is very high in calories (it pleases - it weighs little, because it’s very airy, so you can have one piece as a reward)))).

Classic puff pastry is quite difficult to prepare. It’s easier to buy ready-made and take it out when you want to bake something. But, if you are a supporter of everything homemade, look on the Internet for simplified ways to prepare puff pastry. The recipes below assume you already have it.

Bake the braids for 10–15 minutes in the oven at 180°C. While they are baking, make the frosting. Combine powdered sugar, milk and vanilla extract. You can adjust the thickness of the glaze by adding either powder or milk.

Drizzle glaze over finished braids and serve.

If you have your own signature puff pastry recipes, then welcome in the comments. Let's share culinary secrets with each other!

Puff pastry is an essential component for a huge range of different baked goods. It makes delicate cakes, pies and the easiest thing - puff pastries sprinkled with powdered sugar. Having a package of such a semi-finished product, a hospitable and hospitable hostess will always find something to treat unexpected guests.

Pies with green onions and eggs

With the onset of spring and summer, we all feel a lack of vitamins. And by that time, the first “green vitamins” appeared in our summer cottages - and onions took pride of place among them. We enjoy eating it as an accompaniment to various dishes, and with no less pleasure we make a variety of baked goods using it. Puff pastries are one of them.

We will need (for 16 pcs):

• dough - 4 plates (750 g)
• egg - 6 pieces
• yolk - 1 pc.
• green onions - as much as you don’t mind (a good big bunch)
• sour cream or mayonnaise - to taste
• salt - to taste
• sesame (optional)

Preparation:

1. Boil the eggs, cover them with cold water and remove the shells. Cut into small cubes.

2. Cut green onions 0.6-0.8 cm thick.

3. Mix onions with eggs, add sour cream or mayonnaise. Or both in equal proportions. The filling should not be liquid or thick. In the first case, the finished products will “float”, and in the second they will turn out dry and tasteless.

4. Grease the table with vegetable oil and roll out the first layer. Cut it into four parts and put the filling on each part. We don’t feel sorry for it, we put in more of it. Fold the blanks into an envelope or triangle. Place on a greased baking sheet or lined with a silicone mat.

5. Do the same with the remaining three parts. Brush the pies with yolk and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

6. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 30 minutes. They will brown and become beautiful and of course tasty.

Here we have products with the most popular and favorite fillings. As you may have noticed, working with the dough is the same everywhere. Well, that is if you use it in a ready-made version.

If you want to make the dough yourself, here is the recipe.

Yeast puff pastry recipe

We will need:

• premium flour - 0.5 kg
• butter 82.5% -350 gr
• milk -1 glass
• sugar - 3 tbsp. heaped spoons
• salt -1 teaspoon
• dry yeast - 11 g bag

Preparation:

1. Sift the flour 2-3 times to better saturate it with oxygen. Set aside 3 tbsp. spoons of flour into a separate bowl.

2. Place the rest of the flour in a bowl, add salt.

3. Dilute sugar in 1/2 part of milk and add to flour. Mix.

4. Separately, dilute the yeast in warm milk. Let stand for a while until they separate and add the mixture to the flour and sugar.

5. Add butter that has been softened in advance at room temperature. Knead the dough, it should be quite stiff and come away well from your hands.

6. Wrap it in cling film and put it in the refrigerator, preferably overnight, but at least 4 hours. During this time it will double in volume.

7. Take out the finished dough and roll it into a layer 0.5-0.6 mm thick.

8. Spread butter on the rolled out layer, leaving 1/3 part. Do not spread to the very edges, leave about 1 cm from the edges uncoated.

9. Wrap the ungreased part onto the lubricated part. And then cover it with the rest. You will get three layers. Using a rolling pin, roll it without pressing very hard along the entire length of the layer. To avoid breaking the layers, roll only in one direction.

10. Then lightly sprinkle the remaining flour onto the top of the layer and fold again into three layers. Roll out lightly and put back in the refrigerator for 40 minutes.

11. This procedure must be repeated four times. Only four times. Then we will get the required number of layers.

The finished dough can be stored in the refrigerator for three days and in the freezer for 1 month.

This is not the fastest cooking method. There is a faster way, described in my other post, on how to make spinach pie.

And in conclusion, one little secret for making delicious pastries. The word itself comes from the word "feast". To feast means to celebrate. And we spare nothing to celebrate. Look how our tables are packed for all the holidays. Therefore, don’t skimp on the filling! There should be a lot of it in the pies! Less dough and more filling. That's the whole secret!

Bon appetit!

Introduction

Before we start talking about how long to bake puff pastry, let's give it a more detailed description. There are a large number of young and inexperienced housewives who may not have heard that such a wonderful semi-finished product exists in the world. Although many people came across this type of dough in supermarket refrigerators, they somehow postponed the time to purchase it. And now, before finding out how long to bake puff pastry, they will find out why they actually need this product and what it is?

Types of it

In general, the product exists in two forms. Yeast - the dough is kneaded using yeast, in addition to the main ingredients. When baked, it has a slightly different flavor and appearance.

Yeast-free - as the name suggests, it does not contain an additional yeast component. This fact doesn't make it any less flaky. A yeast-free product is considered more capable of separation. Baking made without yeast can contain up to two hundred thin layers.

However, chefs are not asleep and offer ready-made products from puff pastry. You can also try delicious pastries made from creamy puff pastry, which contains delicate cream. All these delicacies are offered by a variety of cafes and delis. Preparing puff pastry with such additional ingredients is a very troublesome task.

Cake “Leningradskoe”

Category: Desserts Cakes

They say this cake comes from our childhood. I don't remember, to be honest. But I fully admit that some of those who tried it will respond and perhaps cook it... to remember the time when the trees were big, and our country bore the proud name of the USSR.

Defrosting

Before you know how long to bake puff pastry, you must first properly prepare it for baking. Usually the most appropriate method for a particular test is written on the product packaging itself. What to do when such information is not available?

The bag of dough from the freezer is transferred to the refrigerator (overnight) and in the morning the defrosted but not sticky dough is ready.

To quickly defrost, remove the bag from the layer and place the dough on the table for fifteen minutes at room temperature. It thaws very quickly. The layers of dough (there is more than one in the package) need to be separated as soon as they can come unstuck from each other.

With a semi-finished product you need to work no less quickly. High temperatures cause the layers to collapse. The oil that is located between them, although not very visible to the human eye, is capable of sticking together at lightning speed.

Before you find out how long to bake puff pastry, you need to arm yourself with equally important knowledge about how to properly prepare the product. First, a general rule regarding each type of dough: there should not be a lot of flour for shaping the products. The cutting surface is lightly dusted with flour, and the dough is quickly rolled out on it, and pies, for example, are made no less quickly.

At what temperature should puff pastries be baked?

There is no housewife who has not tried making puff pastries at least once in her life. What is it? It's simple - it's baked goods made from puff pastry. It differs from ordinary dough in that it contains a large amount of oil (vegetable or butter - it doesn’t matter), which should not just be a lot, but a catastrophically large amount - almost as much as flour. Samsa, buns, pies and many other different delicacies are made from puff pastry. If you want to diversify your table, it's time to make puff pastries. But at the same time, you need to know the conditions under which they will turn out to be truly unique and close to the originals depicted in the pictures of cookbooks and magazines. The most important conditions are baking time and temperature. It will also be important what filling you decide to fill your culinary masterpieces with.

Baking time and temperature for puff pastries

Here is a recipe for puff pastry. You selected the ingredients correctly, observed all the proportions, followed the step-by-step instructions, strictly following the recipe points, but in the end your dish did not turn out the way you intended, or it did not work out at all. What's the matter? In fact, there are not so many possible answers: either you made a mistake with the temperature, or you over/undercooked the baked goods in the oven. Be careful and set the temperature and timer correctly!

What temperature is optimal?

In the case of puff pastry products, the law of the golden mean is most applicable. Remember that too much or not enough heat will ruin your puff pastries! So, in most recipes it is recommended that the baking temperature be no lower than 220 degrees, otherwise the oil will simply evaporate from the dough and the puff pastries will turn out dry and with a small number of layers. At the same time, try not to overdo the temperature! Too high (for example, above 250 degrees), it will turn your potential treats into burnt crackers that are not baked inside.

Yeast products

How much your products have risen will depend on how long to bake the puff pastry. Some housewives set the oven to two hundred and twenty degrees and heat it up. Then place the yeast puffs inside and wait five minutes with the door closed. Don't go far from the kitchen, puff pastries are very capricious. The door cannot be manipulated either. The oven door must be closed so that the cold air that rushes in does not interfere with the rise of the baked goods.

After five minutes, set it to two hundred and fifty degrees. And finish baking the products for fifteen minutes. This time will be enough for the puff pastries to bake and brown.

Yeast-free dough

How long does it take to bake puff pastry without yeast? In the case of baked goods without yeast, the oven is preheated to the required degrees. Set the setting to two hundred and twenty, preheat the oven and you can safely bake your baked goods for fifteen minutes. After a quarter of an hour, visually evaluate the product; if it is a little pale, hold it for another five to ten minutes until it turns red.

Summarizing the answer to the question of how long to bake puff pastry in the oven, we come to the conclusion: an average of half an hour at permissible temperatures, ranging from 220 degrees to 250, is enough. If you have any doubts about whether the baked goods have been baked well, take a clean wooden toothpick and carefully pierce the product. A dry splinter is a sign that the inside of the product is ready. However, outwardly, only the housewife can decide the degree of browning of the puffs.

Don't experiment with lowering the temperature. Most attempts to bake puff pastry at temperatures lower than two hundred and twenty degrees can result in dryness and sticking. An oven heated to more than two hundred and fifty degrees will burn the outside of the baked goods, but leave the inside raw.

I can’t vouch for the taste, but it will be hot :)

Content

Before starting to master complex baking, a novice housewife should learn 5 simple recipes with ready-made puff pastry, including puff pastries, cookies, pies and buns. The easiest way to learn how to cook different dishes is through photo or video recipes. In addition, you can experiment with types of fillings and spices to make the dish special.

Cold or hot oven

It is also important to know which oven to put the filled dough in. The choice between cold and hot is obvious: all pies must be placed in a well-heated oven

Only baked goods that are made in a glass or porcelain form can be placed in a cold pan, since rapid heating of such materials can lead to disaster. You can bake lasagna, apples with honey, or macaroni and cheese in a cold oven.

But it is better to place any baked goods in a preheated oven. The temperature for heating can be set as in the recipe, or 30-40 ⁰C higher, and then, when installing the baking sheet, switch to the recommended one. A higher temperature heats the oven faster and more evenly, and when the door is opened and a cold pan is placed, the oven cools down to the optimal temperature.

It is important to remember that if you place baked goods in a cold oven, they will be dry and will not rise properly.

What can be made from puff pastry

This type of dough, such as puff pastry, is the basis for dishes of different nations due to its fine structure and pleasant crunch. The store-bought product is more often used for sweet baked goods, although it is also suitable for making pies with savory filling. The following types of confectionery products are prepared from it:

• cakes;
• pies;
• cookie;
• tubes;
• croissants;
• buns;
• rolls.

From yeast

The finished dough using yeast has a characteristic sour taste. After cooking, products made from it turn out more fluffy and tasty. They make good buns and savory meat and fish pies. Unlike the fresh version, there are several times fewer layers; they do not turn out as light and crispy, but the number of calories is slightly less.

From yeast-free

Unleavened or yeast-free product is more often used to make sweet confectionery products. The tongues, corners and puffs are crispier and more delicious due to the thin layers. However, for those who are trying to adhere to proper nutrition, it is better to refrain from consuming such delicacies - the product turns out to be higher in calories due to the fact that it contains more oil.

Fkusnofacts

Pies are a type of pastry with filling, baked in the oven (formerly in a Russian oven). In ancient Rus', only passionate cooks baked pies, because... there was no frozen dough, microwaves or an oven that could heat up in 5 minutes

In addition, for baking pies it is especially important that the temperature is even and does not drop - this requires constant attention to the baking process

Now there are a lot of tools that make cooking easier

gadgets and products. Firstly, they sell ready-made dough, which just needs to be thawed and rolled out. Secondly, the use of currently produced yeast greatly simplifies the process of making yeast pies. Thirdly, you can use an oven, air fryer, bread maker and even a microwave to bake pies.

Pies are divided by type of dough

: yeast (spread and straight), puff (yeast and yeast-free), shortbread, butter (yeast and yeast-free, less often choux. The dough is selected for the filling and directly affects the consistency of the flour component.

Pies can be open or closed

– open pies are not partially or completely covered with the top layer of dough. However, it will take less time to store opened pies - they may dry out over time.

When choosing the type of pie, it is important to consider the time it takes to prepare the dough. So, to prepare high-quality yeast dough “according to all standards” you need at least 4 hours

And if you don’t have time to make a pie, we recommend using store-bought frozen dough.

For simple closed pies, the finished dough is rolled out or placed in a baking dish, then the filling is laid out and the pie is closed with a top layer of dough. For complex pies, many variations are possible - the filling can be curled into the dough differently, and the dough can fit differently in the baking dish.

Most pies are filled with ready-made fillings

. Particularly popular in Russia are charlotte, kurnik, mannik, fish pie, sour cream, strudel, zebra, and various vertuts.

toppings and decorations when making pies.

: Roll out the remaining dough and mold flowers, leaves, etc. out of them. The pies will look more appetizing if you sprinkle them with sesame seeds, poppy seeds, cookie crumbs (or the same dough), as well as colored dessert sprinkles. 10 minutes before the end of baking, you can brush the pie with milk or beaten chicken egg to give the pie a golden brown color.

Sweet pies are served

for dessert with tea or coffee. Pies with savory filling can be served as a main dish or snack. The pie can be cut before serving, or at the table (then it will cool more slowly). According to the rules of etiquette, pies are eaten only with a fork and knife, or, in extreme cases, with a napkin, but in no case with your hands.

Recipes with ready-made puff pastry

When you urgently need to cook something, different recipes made from ready-made puff pastry become a real lifesaver. Recommendations from experienced chefs will help beginners:

1. Pre-defrost the dough in the microwave or leave it on the table 2-3 hours before starting cooking.
2. After thawing, yeast dough should be kept warm for at least 1 hour.
3. Before you cook anything, you need to carefully roll out the dough into a thin layer.
4. Baking from ready-made puff pastry turns out better if you place it on a sheet of parchment paper soaked in oil. Puff pastries often burn on a baking sheet.
5. Products can be filled with any ingredients, both sweet and salty.
6. During the final stage, the filling is added and the product is placed in a hot oven. The average baking temperature is 180-220 degrees.
7. If meat filling is used, the cooking time will increase.

My video recipe

“Margherita”, “Four Cheese”, “Marinara”, “Neapolitan”, “Hawaiian”, “Sicilian” - these and several dozen other types of pizza are one of the favorite delicacies of modern man. Someone specially travels to the homeland of this dish, Italy, in order to try pizza prepared according to the classic recipe. And some people don’t want to travel that far and cook pizza at home. In order for it to turn out no worse than that of Italian chefs, you need to know how long it takes to cook pizza in the oven.

1. The most delicious pizzas are made with yeast dough. After kneading, the dough should rest for 60 minutes, and only then it should be placed in the mold. To prevent it from sticking to your hands, they are lubricated with oil;
2. It is not necessary to roll out the dough with a rolling pin - just gently stretch it with your fingers along the form or baking sheet. But if the dough is too wet, I roll it out with a rolling pin through parchment or baking paper;
3. The round pan should be generously greased around the edges and dusted with flour or semolina on top;
4. If the dough is too thick and the filling may burn during its preparation, there is a way out. The base can be baked separately until half-cooked and after that, put the filling on it;
5. The raw filling must be laid out as a top layer and covered with grated cheese on top;
6. The filling is laid out in one layer on a thin and loose dough. The best ingredients for this dough are ham, vegetables, boiled chicken, vegetables and cheese;
7. The filling ingredients must be fresh; defrosted products often lack taste;
8. To prevent the tomatoes from releasing their juice, the pizza should be placed in the oven immediately after adding the toppings;
9. Place the pizza pan in an oven preheated to the desired temperature;
10. If the top layer of pizza begins to burn while the middle is not yet ready, cover it with a wet paper towel.

• Difficulty: easy.

A collection that includes recipes for ready-made puff pastry dough would be incomplete without mentioning buns. This option will help out in a situation when you urgently need to bake something for tea. The dish is prepared very quickly, it turns out tasty and aromatic. Before preparing buns from yeast dough, you need to remove the bag from the freezer in advance, and then put it in a cup, placing it in a warm place so that the product doubles in size.

Ingredients:

• powdered sugar – 50 g;
• yolk – 1 pc.;
• butter – 50 g;
• dough – 500 g.

Cooking method:

1. Roll out the dough to 3 mm.
2. Melt the butter, grease the layer.
3. Roll the dough into a tight roll, pinch the edge.
4. Cut into portions 8-10 cm long.
5. Make a slit in the middle of each piece with a knife so that it does not reach the edge.
6. Unfold the slit to make a “heart”.
7. Place the buns on parchment paper.
8. Grease with yolk, sprinkle with powder.
9. Bake for 25 minutes.

Handling an electric oven

Let me note right away that if you have an electric oven, you are very lucky; baking buns will be even easier. After all, owners of an electric oven can separately configure the upper and lower heating elements, and turn on the heating as needed in this case.

The electrical device has a timer and a thermostat. Those. it is able to maintain the desired temperature for a specified time. The gas oven may not have such functions, but the buns it produces are no less beautiful and tasty.

Before turning on the oven to heat up, you need to remove all unnecessary baking sheets from it. If you have a grille in your device, but you do not plan to use it, remove it as well.

Leaving a baking sheet in the oven will negatively affect the temperature you set. Before you start baking, you should set the desired temperature and wait 20 minutes.

If you plan to cook with a ceramic base, then you cannot melt the device in advance, because glass and ceramics will simply burst from a sudden temperature change.

If you start baking yeast dough, you need to monitor it carefully. If the batch has already increased to the desired size, but the oven is still not warmed up, I advise you to put parchment on top of it, but wet it with water.

The mold should not be placed on the bottom of the oven, only on a baking sheet or wire rack. You need to install it along the guides in the oven.

Owners of electric ovens should know that they contain dry air, and therefore baking from any dough needs to be moistened. Sprinkle the baked goods with water or milk, but remember that the liquid must be warm.

The convection process in the oven makes the air 15 degrees hotter. Do not open the door while baking. Put the buns in the oven, close the door, but don’t slam.

Yeast dough does not like loud sounds, and therefore there is a risk that the buns will fall. To find out if the buns are ready, you need to use a toothpick.

Stick it firmly into the dough; if it comes out clean, it means it’s time to take out the buns. Plus, a golden brown crust on a yeast dough bun will indicate the readiness of the baked goods.

Puff tongues

• Time: 25 minutes.
• Number of servings: 12 persons.
• Calorie content of the dish: 120 kcal/100 g.

In the 5 simplest recipes with ready-made puff pastry, you must include the preparation of tongues. This type of quick baking got its name because of its similarity to a real tongue.

Some gourmets prefer to sprinkle the finished cakes with salt, then they can be used as a beer snack.

Ingredients:

• sugar - 400 g.

Cooking method:

1. Unfold the roll, roll the layer with a rolling pin to a thickness of 5 mm.
2. Cut into small pieces with a knife, round the edges of the dough strips.
3. Sprinkle sugar on top.
4. Place on a baking sheet and place in the oven.
5. Bake for 15-20 minutes.

Electric oven

It is much more convenient to handle than a gas oven, since heating can come from both above and below. You can turn on the upper or lower heating elements separately. In addition, the electric oven is equipped with a convenient thermostat and often a timer. It’s like an iron, it turns itself off and on and maintains a constant temperature.

• Before turning it on, be sure to remove all unnecessary items from the oven. If there is a wire rack, but it will not be used, then it must be removed (an extra baking sheet left in the oven will negatively affect the temperature and heating of the oven).
• Before baking, you need to preheat the oven: set the desired temperature and wait 15-20 minutes.
• If you need to place baked goods in a cold oven (for example, a glass or ceramic baking dish cannot be placed in a hot oven - it will burst), then keep an eye on the dough. If it has already risen, but the oven has not yet warmed up, then you can put parchment moistened with water on top of the dough.
• The baking dish cannot be placed on the bottom of the oven, only on a wire rack or baking sheet. It is necessary to place it along the guides in the oven.
• The air in an electric oven is very dry, so baked goods need to be moistened. You can put a container of water in the oven for the first half of the baking time. You can also sprinkle the set cakes with water or warm milk.
• Convection mode makes the air hotter by 10-15 degrees.
• Any oven should not be opened while the dough is being prepared. – When you put the pie inside, close the door carefully, do not slam. Otherwise the dough may fall.
• A toothpick will help you know when the dough is ready: you need to stick it into the dough, if there is no sticky dough left on it, then everything is baked.

How to make dough without yeast

Preparing a yeast-free baking base is very easy and quick, because you don’t need to give it time to rise - you just have to knead it and you can immediately start shaping the products. True, in some recipes it is better to use chilled dough, but, as a rule, this process does not take more than 20-30 minutes. Do you think baked goods made from yeast-free dough cannot be fluffy and airy? How can it, because the main ingredient responsible for raising products in the oven or in a frying pan is baking soda, which will give them the desired fluffiness.

Soda is not used only for simple unleavened dough; other types of baking base without yeast require its presence in the composition. Depending on the main ingredients used in a particular recipe, quick dough without yeast is divided into the following varieties:

• Unleavened - kneaded from a minimum amount of ingredients: water, salt, flour, although some recipes include an egg in the dough. Universal for dumplings, dumplings, pasties, pizza, noodles.
• Using kefir, milk, yogurt or fermented baked milk - the lightest, softest and most tender dough for pies without yeast. Due to the reaction of soda with the main liquid milk ingredient, such baked goods turn out fluffy and airy.
• Butter is a type of yeast-free base that requires the presence of eggs, sugar, sour cream, and fats of vegetable or animal origin. Suitable for baked pies with sweet fillings, muffins, biscuits.
• Custard - prepared by heating and mixing the main ingredients over a fire. Unleavened custard base is used for dumplings, pasties, and pies. Eclairs, cakes, and profiteroles are baked from the variety with fat and eggs.
• Puff pastry – thanks to a special kneading technology and the presence of butter in the recipe, baked goods made from a puff-free yeast-free base are tender, porous, and crumbly.
• Shortbread is a yeast-free base of flour and sugar with added fat, but without baking powder. Due to the large amount of fat, baked goods made from it are crumbly, crumbly, and unusually airy. Suitable for cookies, tarts, cheesecakes.
