    Of all the honors I’ve received in my life nothing touches a name check in a Chef John video.
    Edit: regarding the dough ovens my guess is that the puff pastry gets folded and run through the sheeter along the same axis a few times during production which aligns the gluten strands more strongly in one direction than the other. This would make the dough stretch more easily along the weaker dimension as it puffs, creating an oval shape.

    Cut squares from the dough that are large enough to accommodate the ramekin size. Go ahead and dock those squares and bake them. As soon as you take them out of the oven, cut them into circles while the dough is still at its hottest. That will prevent the oval shape.
    Update: yep…. That worked well

    When I worked in R&D at a food plant making sheeted pizza dough, we had to cut the dough into ovals so they would par-bake round. My understanding was that is was because the successive sheeter sections tended to stretch the dough more in the direction of the conveyor travel and less across the width of the belt which created more "stress" in the running direction which then tended to shrink back more. But it's been 25+ years since I finished my baking certification at AIB, so my memory is not all that reliable.

      Yeah, it's the tension from the rolling in production - all 1 way, where hand made would be 1/4 turned. If you let it warm up & release it from any backing sheet then chill again before use, it should relax enough for a round cutter to give you a round pastry when cooked. It will still mis-shape a fraction. You get the same effect with cheap burgers shaped under a rolling cutter - as they are pre-cut you can't warm/relax to try and correct it.

    My guess regarding the oval form:
    during production, the dough gets folded several times. If it always gets folded in the same direction,
    the gluten strands might align, and you get a anisotropic "material", meaning that expansion/contraction depends on the direction.

    • @SRDuly2010
      @SRDuly2010 3 года назад +17

      @Thommi95, that’s a good theory. Another possibility is a temperature gradient in the oven.

    @christinekaye6393 3 года назад +4

    I made this tart yesterday for a couple of friends and it was delicious! A note for those who want to try this: To get nice long strips, keep the pressure of the peeler's blade on the apple when you stop to turn the apple. When I first tried, I got a lot of shorter pieces, but after I figured out how to maintain the pressure, I got very long strips and only needed 3 or 4 to make the "rose". Also, my puff pastry came out nice and circular, but didn't take as long to bake as the recipe says, so keep an eye on them while they're baking. I docked the dough, but I didn't press them down when I took the out of the oven because the height was perfect as it was.

I am vegan so had mine with vegan cream but Hubby is not and he decided to have clotted cream with his. He was in absolute heaven! I used butter for his and vegan “butter” for mine.

I scared the cat when I started laughing at the Ikea furniture method 😂 She has only just forgiven me for waking her up so rudely yesterday.
    I am an American and so still celebrate Thanksgiving and sadly it is never on the correct day as Hubby has to work, so we either take our vacation in Nov and do it then or we celebrate it at the weekend. This year we will be away for Thanksgiving and I am so excited to celebrate it on the correct date. But Hubby enjoyed this so much he has requested this for dessert instead of pumpkin pie!!

    Vanilla ice cream is good but soften it mix in some cinnamon or my favorite nutmeg to taste refreeze and try that with this.

    Such a perfect recipe for fall especially on a cool, sunny day when it's 65 F degrees! Since it is fall, I'm hoping for a recipe where the ole tappa, tappa and the ole shaka, shaka, AND around the outside, around the outside each make an appearance.

    Commercial puff pastry sheets are made with large sheeters. Because of the length of the sheets, they always fold and repress in the same direction ( versus rotating between folding steps - what would normally be a "turn"). This results in the gluten strands aligning enough to cause the pastry to go oblong once it starts puffing up (perpendicular to the direction of the threads of gluten).

    I always forget how easy Chef John makes some of these recipes look. My hand slipped while peeling and apple and I peeled my finger instead; blood sweat and tears, let me tell ya. Turned out ok. CJ is still of one my favorite YT Chefs.

      Along the same lines, while grating potatoes for potato pancakes (latkes), knuckle blood just adds that extra kick.

    1:29 - most likely they've been rolled out too fast in the factory and frozen before they could restore tension created by rolling. So when they've been heated up in the oven - tension has been restored by deforming dough in direction perpendicular to the rolling direction.

    These look simple and delicious!
    BTW, the pastry shrinks slightly because the water content evaporates as heat is applied.

    The oval shape is due to the uneven pokey pokey or pricky prickey application,thusly causing an unbalanced friction of the bearing surface of said puff pastry on the proper use of parchment paper.
