CHEESE TWISTS
Quick and easy gourmet cheese twists made with cheese, puff pastry, dijon mustard and egg. Simply delicious.
Equipment
- Pizza Cutter
Ingredients
- 510 g puff pastry 1 package
- 100 g grated cheese of your choice Extra sharp cheeses work better than subtle tasting cheeses
- 2 Tbsp dijon mustard
Egg Wash
- 1 egg for egg wash
- 1 Tbsp water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° fahrenheit
- Roll your puff pastry dough until it is ¼ "(about ½ cm) in height. If using store bought pastry, unroll pastry.
- Using a spatula or knife, spread a thin layer of dijon mustard onto the dough.
- Add half the grated cheese to the first layer of the dough.
- Place the second pastry dough onto the first pastry
- Roll the pastry out to compress the cheese until it is about 3/8 "(a little more that 1cm) in height.
- Combine and whisk water and egg to form an egg wash.
- Brush pastry with egg wash.
- Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut dough into 1/2" (1.25 cm) strips.
- Twist and pull slightly and place it onto a baking sheet. If the twists are too thick, they won't crisp and will be softer.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and crisp.
- Let cool slightly and serve warm.
Notes
