ROUGH PUFF PASTRY
From a book of British cookery. This pastry recipe is used in several pie and tart recipes, both sweet and savory. You can always use frozen puff pastry, of course, but if you have the time and want to take the extra step to make it really special, this doesn't seem like it would be very hard to make. Times are estimates, and cooking time is minimum chilling time.

Steps:
- Sift fry ingredients together into a large, chilled mixing bowl. Add cold butter and lard pieces, and working quickly, rub flour and fat together until the texture of coarse meal. If you prefer, you can use a pastry blender or knives. You may also use a mixer or food processor, but take great care not to overmix or overprocess.
- Add 4 Tbsp icy cold water and quickly blend into flour mixture.
- Gather all the dough and crumbs up into a ball. If it is too crumbly and will not hold together, add up to 2 Tbsp more icy cold water, 1 tsp at a time, until it holds together.
- Lightly dust pastry with flour, wrap in wax paper, and chill for 30 minutes.
- Place pastry on lightly floured board and gently press into a rectangle about 1 inch thick. Dust flour underneath and on top of pastry. Roll out into a rectangle about 21x6 inches. Fold into thirds to form a three-layer rectangle about x6 inches.
- Turn pastry 1/4 turn, dusting underneath with flour if needed. Roll out again into a 21x6 inch rectangle, and again fold into thirds.
- Repeat two more times, turning a quarter turn before rolling out each time and ending with the pastry folded into a 7x6 inch packet.
- Wrap tightly in wax paper, foil, or a freezer bag and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 3-4 days.

Steps:
- On a floured surface roll out the puff pastry 1/8 inch thick and with a 3-inch star-shaped cutter cut out 8 pastry stars. Transfer the stars to a lightly greased baking sheet, brush the tops with the egg wash, being careful not to let the wash drip down the sides, and bake the stars in the middle of a preheated 400°F. oven 12 to 15 minutes, or until they are puffed and golden. Transfer the stars to a rack and let them cool completely. With a sharp small knife carefully split the stars in half horizontally to form a total of 16 stars, leaving the bottoms cut sides up and the tops cut sides down. Just before serving, spoon about 1 teaspoon of the sour cream onto each star, divide the caviar among the stars, and sprinkle the hors d'oeuvres with the chives.

Steps:
- Ok, you get the whole story!
- "Before beginning the adventure with puff paste there is one thing to be explained that will make its compositions comparatively easy.
- (Ha Ha!) The butter used must be washed.
- The purpose of washing it is to make it elastic.
- It should be soft through being kneaded, but in no sense soft through being melted- quite the contrary, it must be soft and cold at the same time.
- In winter turn on the cold water faucet.
- Manipulate the butter with the hands under the stream of cold water until it is creamy and waxy.
- At other seasons, do this in a quart of ice water placed in a bowl of ice.
- The butter may be kneaded with a spoon if preferred.
- The final kneading of the butter is done on a board or it is patted briskly in the hands until no water flies.
- This is the recipe of a professional cook.
- As it calls for egg yolks it differs from the orthodox rule for puff paste.
- However, her results are remarkable and her method is simple, so I am giving it in preference to the usual rather complicated recipes.
- (Ha Ha again, it is complicated!) She stresses 2 points: Keep the hands, the bowl, the board and the rolling pin as cold as possible.
- (Ha Ha, your hands will be frostbitten!) A cold windy day is best for making puff paste.
- "Work with hands,as in the first paragraph, under water, 1 cup of butter.
- Place 1/4 cup butter in a cold bowl.
- Form the remainder into a square and place it where it will keep cold.
- Add to the butter in the bowl, the flour and salt, work these ingredients with a pastry blender, 2 knives or the finger tips.
- Beat and add 1/4 cup ice water and 2 egg yolks, (the yolks may be omitted, in that case use in all, 6 tablespoons of water).
- Work these ingredients well with the hands.
- If necessary add, to loosen the dough from the bowl, a pinch of flour.
- Place the dough were it will be cold but will not freeze, preferably in the open air.
- If it is not possible to do this, fold the dough in a clean cloth and place it in a dripping pan that has been placed between 2 dripping pans filled with ice.
- After 15 minutes, roll the dough into a square on a floured board.
- Roll it one way only, not back and forth.
- A good way is out from the centre.
- Put the square of butter in the centre of the dough and fold the 4 corners to the centre completely covering the butter.
- Permit the dough to stand on a cloth or piece of waxed paper in a cold place for 1/2 hour.
- Turn it once to keep it from becoming dry.
- Roll out the dough again into a square and fold the corners to the centre.
- Permit it to stand again for 1/2 hour.
- Repeat this process.
- The dough must be chilled and rolled at least 4 times in all.
- Chill the dough until you are ready to use it.
- Wrapped in waxed paper it may be kept in the refrigerator for several days.
- Roll it, cut it into shapes.
- Chill it again and bake it.
- One of the secrets of success of puff paste is to have it ice cold when placed in a hot oven.
- The matter of baking puff paste is a moot point.
- In all rules the very cold paste is put into a very hot oven- 500°F.
- In some it is baked at this temperature throughout.
- In this case the pastry is covered with waxed paper after 10 minutes baking.
- In other rules the heat is reduced 50 degrees every 5 minutes until the temperature is 350°F for final baking.
- GOOD LUCK!
