		Mille-feuillePosted by ipad centurion on July 3, 2024 at 11:21God day, I trust you are well. Please tell me exactly how you cut the baked puff pastry for the mille-feuille. I normally cut it before I bake it. How do you cut it after baking where it holds its shape Sussan Estela Olaya replied 1 year, 3 months ago 3 Members · 2 Replies

Level:Scoolinary Team To cut puff pastry after baking and maintain its shape without breaking, follow these tips: 1. Let it cool: Allow the puff pastry to cool completely before cutting. This helps the structure set and reduces the likelihood of breaking. 2. Use a sharp knife: Use a serrated knife or a very sharp knife to cut the pastry. A sharp knife will make clean cuts and reduce the risk of breaking the pastry. 3. Cut gently: Make gentle, firm cuts without applying too much pressure. This prevents the pastry from being crushed or crumbling. 4. Additional support: If the pastry is very fragile, you can place a light hand on top of it to keep it steady while cutting. 5. Cutting technique: For more precise cuts, use a sawing motion rather than pressing straight down. 6. Flat surface: If possible, cut the pastry on a flat, hard surface to ensure even cuts. By following these steps, you can cut puff pastry in a way that maintains its shape and prevents breaking. Greetings.
