Pies and Pastries

Pies and pastries, like cakes, are delightful to eat


especially when they are baked properly. A well-
prepared pastry may be determined by the quantity
of its pie crust.

Pastry is a delicate baked product which consists of


crust and filling. It contains high percentage fat, which
contributes to a flaky or crumbly texture. A good
pastry is light and airy and fatty, but firm enough to
support the weight of the filling. When making a short
crust pastry, care must be taken to blend the fat and
flour thoroughly before adding any liquid. This
ensures that the flour granules are adequately coated
KINDS OF PASTRY
1.CREAM PUFFS -
a type of light
pastry that is
filled with
whipped cream

cream filling and

chocolate.

made by rolling dough with butter and
folding it to form layers: used for tarts,

the filling.

6. Croissants - a flaky raised dough. It is like a
sweetened cross between a simple yeast-raised
dough and puff pastry. The dough is rolled with
butter to create layers and is then left to rise,
creating a very light texture. The downside is that
it is technically involved and requires a great deal
of work
PASTRY INGREDIENTS
1.All-purpose flour - type of flour used in baking
pastries .The gluten content of this flour provides
framework or substance of baked pastries.

2. Lard and vegetable shortening - fats frequently


used to make pastry, Butter and margarine produce a
less tender crust.

3. Water an important ingredient in pastry because it


provides the moisture needed to develop gluten.

4.Salt-contributes to the flavor of pastry and has no


influence on flakiness or tenderness.
