  • This incredible looking savory chicken and mushroom strudel might seem like it takes some advanced pastry skills, but, as I prove in this video, it does not. And if you’re not into chicken and mushroom, this technique will work with any other type of meat filling. Enjoy!

    My favorite part about Food Wishes is that throughout the years, the format, and more importantly, Chef John has not changed. It's like coming home to a warm hug from mom and dad after being away for a long time.

  • @javaskull88
    @javaskull88 Год назад +3

    I’ve made this twice, here are some tips:
    * use a bench scraper to press gentle, straight indentations into the thawed dough that won’t cut all the way through. A metal spatula with a straight edge also works.
    * use a small offset spatula as a template when you cut your “wings” into the dough, they will be straight and even. If you do t have one, cut a cardboard template.
    * if possible, make the chicken-mushroom filling the day before your dinner. Or at least make it the morning of. Waiting for it to cool will really mess up your timing.
    * this mixture will fill two long rectangular pastry sheets like Chef John used, or four square ones. My area doesn’t have a great variety, you take whatever the store has.
    * read the label on the pastry sheet package. They must contain butter! One manufacturer is now using canola oil in lieu of butter, and I can’t see how that would puff or even taste good.
    * finally, you don’t have to be experienced in handling pastry dough to do this. Just stick back in the freezer if it gets harder to manage. Follow his instructions and you’ll do great.
    * and as always - enjoy!

      Was literally just about to comment something similar. Mine is coming years long after having gone to culinary school and now working in high level kitchens. I came back and instantly felt myself brought back to the kid that fell in love with Chef John's cooking videos and thought about how far I've come. Chef John has been a true inspiration for me and my career even through all the hiccups, and I still fall short. One day, though, I hope to meet him and maybe even get the opportunity to cook with him in the same kitchen.

    "Fork don't lie" ain't no lie. This came out of the oven as advertised, brown, crispy and elegant. We did not have the puff pastry mentioned in Chef John's recipie on All Recipies so we used Pepperidge Farm but they were considerably smaller than shown in the video. We had considerable filling left over and I made empanadas. (We split the filling and used gruyere and smoked gouda) They were delicious!!!! We are making these for our Christmas celebration

    @hansdampf4055 Год назад +61

    One of the few chefs I've seen on the internet who prepares mushrooms optimally. The great Paul Bocuse had a very simple dish: "mushrooms in cream". The secret is to fry the mushrooms in butter until all the liquid is boiled away. This intensifies the taste of the mushrooms enormously. This chef does the same. People like to add shallots, I leave them out. I just want mushroom, butter, cream. Lemon juice gives freshness. Really top preparation. The dish is a feast for the eyes! Very old fashioned, but still very appealing. Forgive me for my narrow-mindedness and ignorance: I would not have expected such a thing from an American chef as a European. But well, I'm an old sack :)

    • @MoiAussie1
      @MoiAussie1 Год назад +2

      One of our favourite sides is mushrooms cooked thus but we add wedged tomatoes too half way through then when all is caramalised I stir in cream and seasoning and simmer briefly to thicken.The flavour mix is another level. It needs nothing else. Simple and sublime.

    • @bloodorange7428
      @bloodorange7428 Год назад +3

      I’ve always been taught to sweat the mushrooms with no oil in the pan to get rid of the moisture, and then once they start shriveling up I add butter to brown them. I’ll have to try the butter from the get-go technique to see what is better

    II think that the best advice when working with puff pastry is to never let it get "uncold" (wouldn't it be great to have a big piece of marble as your countertop). My mom gave me the exact same advice and always insisted on placing it back in the fridge after assembly for an additional 5-10 minutes. From the fridge to oven swiftly. I would love to fully understand the whole science behind it I think it's the butter staying cold between the layers and no being incorporated otherwise we're making bread. Thank you chef, for repeating this sever times. I've watched many other videos to get ideas on how to "package" it and yours by far is the best. Your guidance taught me to put the filling in the fridge because it also needs to be cold. I never thought of that when I was using it room temperature however it is so much easier to shape. Many thanks. I'll be browsing through this page for sure. Cheers everyone. C

Canned chicken, canned mushrooms and even canned cream. Instead of puff pastry dough I used my trusty French bread recipe and skipped the egg wash. It turned out fantastic. No one and I mean NO ONE suspected the undesirable canned ingredients were used. Scored a big thumbs up from everyone who tried it. 👍

    That flavor combo was so delicious. I almost left out the lemon, but I'm so glad I kept it in. Tarragon-lemon-cayenne is now my go to with chicken. This was so good. I didn't need to bake it past 30 mins. It was still plenty crispy. Thanks!!
