Tip
Previous tipHeat is the enemy of Puff Pastry—it handles best when cold. So avoid working with it on hot, humid days, in a stifling hot kitchen or next to your oven.
When serving Puff Pastry, cut with a serrated knife for the most even, attractive presentation.
Puff Pastry can puff up to 8 times its original thickness. That means even a sheet rolled to a thin ¼-inch thickness will rise 2 inches.
Use a marble pastry board to help keep Puff Pastry cold while rolling and cutting.
Recipe
Ingredients
-
1 egg
-
1 tbsp. water
-
2 green onions, chopped (about 1/4 cup)
-
2 tbsp. chopped pimientos (optional)
-
1/2 tsp. dried oregano leaves, crushed
-
1/2 of a 17.3-ounce package Pepperidge Farm® Puff Pastry Sheets (1 sheet), thawed
-
1/2 lb. sliced cooked ham
-
1/2 lb. sliced cooked turkey
-
1 cup fresh spinach leaves
-
4 oz. sliced Swiss cheese
Directions
-
Heat the oven to 400°F. Beat the egg and water in a small bowl with a fork. Stir the onions, pimientos, if desired, and oregano in a small bowl.
-
Unfold the pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Roll the pastry sheet into a 16x12-inch rectangle. With the short side facing you, layer the ham, turkey, spinach and cheese on the bottom half of the pastry to within 1 inch of the edge. Sprinkle with the onion mixture. Starting at the short side, roll up like a jelly roll. Place seam-side down onto a baking sheet. Tuck the ends under to seal. Brush the pastry with the egg mixture.
-
Bake for 25 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown.
