Two seats, white tablecloth,
palmiers and a cup of coffee, in a humble invitation to a warm conversation.
PalmiersPuff pastry
Superfine sugar
Icing sugar
Preheat the oven to 180ºC.
Slightly moist a parchment paper sheet.
Unfold or unroll the pastry to make a 15x25cms rectangle.
Sprinkle some sugar on both sides of the pastry. Roll it slightly to help sugar adhere to the pastry.
Starting at one large side of the rectangle, roll the pastry toward the center of the sheet, stopping at the middle. Repeat with the opposite large end, so the rolls meet.
Refrigerate to stiff pastry.
Cut into half-centimeter-thick slices and place flat on a baking sheet lined with the moist parchment paper.
Press with thumb each of the
palmiers.
Sprinkle generously with icing sugar.
Bake until golden and puffed (8 minutes).
