My favorite puff pastry dish is Smoked Salmon With Spinach In Puffed Pastry
*Thanks* for the giveaway!
My favorite puff pastry dish meat triangles with mushroom sauce
My fav is the salmon en-croute! thanks
Deli roll- hands down. But i love how I can reinvent it every week by switching around the meats or the sauces!
Here’s a recipe I’ve always followed for my favorite puff pastry dish.
FIG & CAMEMBERT RAVIOLI W/ HONEY BALSAMIC GLAZE:
INGREDIENTS–
** 1 package (17.3 oz) Pepperidge Farm Frozen Puff Pastry Sheets [2 sheets]
** 1 egg
** 1 tablespoon water
** 1 package (8 oz) Camembert or Brie cheese, cut into 24-small wedges
** 12 dried figs, cut in half
** Honey Balsamic Glaze [recipe follows]
INSTRUCTIONS–
1) Thaw the pastry sheets at room temperature for about 40 minutes or until they are easy to handle. Heat the oven to 375-degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease or line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Beat the egg and water in a small bowl with a fork.
2) Unfold 1 pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Roll the pastry sheet into a 16-inch square. Brush the pastry sheet with the egg mixture. Arrange the cheese on the pastry in 4 rows with 6 pieces in each row. Top each cheese piece with 1 fig half.
3) Unfold the remaining pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Roll the pastry sheet into a 16-inch square. Place the pastry sheet over the cheese-covered sheet, pressing firmly between the rows and around the edges to seal. Brush the pastry with the egg mixture. Cut between the 4 rows using a fluted pastry wheel or sharp knife to make 4 strips. cut each strip into 6 squares. Place the ravioli onto the baking sheets. Refrigerate for 15 minutes or until the ravioli are firm.
4) Bake for 20 minutes or until the ravioli are golden. Remove the ravioli from the baking sheets and cool on wire racks for 5 minutes. Serve warm with Honey Balsamic Glaze. Makes 24 pieces.
HONEY BALSAMIC GLAZE–
Heat 3/4 cup balsamic vinegar, 1/2 cup water, and 1/3 cup honey in a 2-quart saucepan over high heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to low. Cook for 12 minutes or until the mixture is reduced by half and has a syrup-like consistency.
EXTRA TIP–
Substitute 1/2 cup prepared fig jam or fig paste for the dried figs. Place about 1 teaspoon onto each cheese piece as directed above in Step 2.
My favorite is the puff pastry apple purses recipe featured on your site. Yum!
my mom does a great puff pastry filled with chopped meat…yum!
I like pastries filled with cheese.
I love spinach with ricotta cheese or feta.
I also love puff pastries with chocolate, mmm!
My mom makes this really good braid pastry filled with all sorts of vegetables like broccoli, carrots, cauliflower with meat, or cheese. We use to ask for it all the time when we were kids.
definitely the deli roll. my whole family loves it.
I love a puff pastry dish I have had a work party a couple times that appears to be just a spinach cheese mixed stuffed in a puff pastry. It looks pretty simple but it is great! I need to try that deli roll above sometime though.
my favorite puff pastry dish is made from organic blanched spinach, asparagus, kale, and jarlsburg cheese. i am a veggie, and vegan when possible. it’s yummy and stores well in the freezer & fridge for eating all week.
any with meat in it, deli meat, or chopped meat, liver, etc
The Puff Pastry Apple Purses are amazing.
My sister-in-law gave me the greatest recipe for chicken squares. It’s puff pastry, chicken cutlet and pastrami. You form it into a pouch and then serve a delicious apricot jam sauce over it. Though in a pinch I’ve served it with warmed up duck sauce.
I have not baked very much, but I love apple pastries. THank you
One of my favorite puff pastry recipes are salmon and spinach wellingtons. Saute 1 box of frozen spinach with one minced garlic clove. Season with salt and pepper. Cut salmon into cubes. Place salmon in middle of square, sprinkle with salt and pepper, spoon 1 T of spinach on top and close all sides. Place seam side down on parchment paper, brush with egg and bake at 350 for about 25 minutes.
My favorite puff pastry recipe is pear tarte tatin with caramel sauce
I’m from Louisiana and the first thing that come to mind is meat pies, a Louisiana passion.
My favorite puff pastry is this chocolate popover thing my grandmother used to make. They were incredibly good. I haven’t had them since I was a child, but I have great memories of them.
My favorite is mini deli rolls and franks in blanks!
Pastries with fruit.
Our family has been making puff pastries with fruit filling similar to the Apple Purses: http://www.joyofkosher.com/recipe/puff-pastry-apple-purses/ for several generations. My kids love them so they must be good!
I love salmon wellington! Until my boyfriend’s mother will give me her recipe, I will have to use this one: http://www.joyofkosher.com/recipe/smoked-salmon-with-spinach-in-puffed-pastry/

I made your Baked Brie with California Raisins and Port Wine in Puff Pastry for Father’s Day and it’s now our favorite recipe: http://www.joyofkosher.com/recipe/baked-brie-with-california-raisins-and-port-wine-in-puff-pastry/.
Baby hotdogs!
I love a spinach and mushroom roll — a slice makes a great appetizer!
My fave is just with ham and cheese
i love making potato knishes!
I half discovered, half invented a super yummy lunch/light dinner that works really well to-go because it’s filling, easy to eat, and you don’t need to find a place to wash.
It’s a bit of a rip-off the classic onion tart but you fold it up so it’s more portable.
I don’t really cook with amounts unless I’m following a recipe so they’re sort of approximated…
Sautee 8 oz sliced mushrooms and 1 large onion in 2 tablespoons butter until golden. Add in 1/4 cup cream cheese, a splash of wine, and season to taste with salt, pepper, and basil.
Lay out two sheets of puff pastry and fill each half with mushroom mixture. Fold over and seal.
I like to slit the top but I don’t think it’s actually necessary-just makes it prettier.
Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes.
(You could also spread the mixture across the entire sheet and place the other sheet atop it to serve more people at home…)
Enjoy!
Flaked Salmon in cream of mushroom soup with shredded cheese filled in a puffed pastry and broiled with more cheese on top.
