In accordance with the terminology adopted in confectionery and bakery, layers are any type of culinary products made of puff dough. Historians and researchers of the world culinary tradition argue that puff dough, and, therefore, products from it, including layer pies, began to be produced back in XVII. It is believed that the first puff dough was made by a French artist named Claude Lorrain.

pasties puff pastry;

pies of layer filled with chocolate, jam, jam, vegetables, fresh or canned fruits, eggs, etc. ;

pies ply with cottage cheese;

sweet or salty pies puff.



However, whatever kind of puff you choose, the main component of the culinary product will be dough, which must be prepared correctly in order to end up with delicious homemade pastries. As a rule, in addition to flour, various types of vegetable fats are used to make puff dough. Most often, butter or vegetable oil, as well as margarine, are used to make puff dough.

A distinctive technology for the production of puff dough consists in alternating layers of dough and fat, as a result, a kind of sandwich is obtained, which is repeatedly rolled out to obtain the desired consistency.
