Thread balls
Description
Threads in balls—a fairly light recipe for a very ornate dish. A few notes: First, when buying puff pastry, make sure it is yeast-free. Second, choose pastry that comes prepared in sheets—that way you have a chance to make perfect little balls just like in the pictures. Third, it’s best to cut the strips mechanically so each strip is perfectly straight. And lastly, don’t place the baking sheet too high in the oven, so your pastry “threads” don’t burn and bake through well. Enjoy! Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
