Chinese Puff Pastry
by Tenina Holder
This is absolutely beautiful pastry to work with. We have created a few things to use it for and you will find more just as soon as we do! I do think it is best used on the day it is made, even though we made it and chilled it for a couple of days after the first use. There is so much of it, but really, if you are going to go to the trouble of making this amazing pastry, you should have plenty of options to use it!
