Video: [Claire Saffitz Makes Rough Puff Pastry | Dessert Person - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvGGgOJbcGA) # Rough Puff Pastry Recipe Ingredients: - 3 sticks unsalted butter (12 oz / 340g), chilled - 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (16 oz / 455g), plus more for rolling - 2 tablespoons sugar (0.9 oz / 25g) - 1 1/2 teaspoons Diamond Crystal kosher salt (0.16 oz / 5g) Instructions: 1. In a large bowl, combine flour, kosher salt, and granulated sugar. 2. Grate the frozen butter directly into the bowl using a box grater. 3. Toss the mixture to coat the butter. 4. Add the cold, thinly sliced butter to the mixture and toss again to coat. 5. Slowly add ice water to the mixture, starting with a half cup. Use your hands to incorporate the water and bring the dough together. You may need to add more water as needed. 6. Transfer the dough to a work surface and flatten it gently using your fingers or a rolling pin. 7. Wrap the flattened dough with plastic wrap, creating a rectangular shape. 8. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight. 9. After chilling, remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle that is about 1/4 inch thick. 10. Fold the rectangle into thirds, like a letter. 11. Roll the dough out again into another rectangle and fold again into thirds. 12. Divide the dough in half, and wrap each piece in plastic wrap. You can use this dough for various pastries, such as palmiers or tarte tatin. # Palmier Recipe (at end of video) Cinnamon and Sugar Palmiers Ingredients: - Rough puff pastry dough - Granulated sugar (with optional cinnamon or other flavorings) - Flour for dusting Instructions: 1. Dust your work surface with sugar. 2. Roll out the chilled rough puff pastry dough into a large rectangle (about ¼-inch thick). 3. Coat the entire surface of the dough with the sugar (and optional flavorings, if desired). 4. Use a rolling pin to press the sugar into the dough. 5. Roll up the dough from one of the long sides, stopping at the midpoint. 6. Turn the dough around and roll up the other side until the two rolls meet in the center. 7. Press the dough down gently to slightly flatten and adhere the spirals. 8. Cut the dough into ½-inch-thick slices. 9. Dip the cut sides of each slice in additional sugar. 10. Place the slices onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, keeping space for them to puff up during baking. 11. Chill the slices in the refrigerator or freezer for 5 to 10 minutes. 12. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). 13. Cook the palmiers for approximately 15 to 25 minutes, or until golden and caramelized. 14. Allow the palmiers to cool slightly before enjoying.
