Puff Pastry with Sprats
Description
“Envelopes” with sprats can be made from any puff pastry, but they turn out more tender with yeast dough. Choose large, firm sprats so they do not fall out when you eat them. Green onions can be replaced with half-moons of yellow or red onion. Baking is done. Serve at the table.
