Pie with grapes - useful tips and tricks
• When cutting puff pastry, clippings often remain. They can be used for decoration. If the recipe does not allow this, then bake the puffs! Lubricate the small pieces with an egg, sprinkle with salt or sugar, sesame seeds, nuts, seeds and brown in the oven.
• When baking pies in the oven, do not open the door. A stream of cold air will upset the balance in the furnace, the crust on the product will turn out to be spotty, most often there is a white edge on the side of the door. The biscuit dough may even settle when you open the door.
• The cake does not go out of shape? Let him stand for a while. Can be put in a basin with cold water or on a wet towel.
• Vanillin and vanilla sugar - products that are laid in different proportions. Sugar is less concentrated, it needs more than pure vanillin.
