meatboy Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 the wife went to the bakery supplies and asked if they had any made pastry sheets NO. i have been making meat pies,corned beef pasties,cheese and onion,and pork pies.but i have trouble making a decent pastry useing 50/50 butter and dripping. well the shop gave her a kilo block of what looks like butter telling all the cake/pie shops use it. i took one look and thought this will be YUK.so yesterday i made some cheese and onion pasties useing a 100grms.of this mix.well the pastry tasted great very light. so has anybody used this.

AyG Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Doubtless packed with icky trans fats from when they hydrogenated the oils to make them solid. Best avoided in my opinion. I'm impressed you can make decent pastry, though. All my attempts have failed miserably. Either the fat melts, or (if I put everything in the fridge before starting) there's too much water condensing in the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessi Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Hey meatboy, I hope you made plenty I might pop around for lunch later. I did read that you can use Canola oil in place of butter for making pastry. As yet I havnt tried it. Butter is best but tooooo expensive here.

None is a solid at room temperature and hydrogenation is common practice in making margarine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Morrison's used to (it's a long time since I shopped there) sell some very good wines very cheaply but alas there's no Morrison's in Thailand so no tasty cheese and onion pasties and no cheap (good) wine. Morrison's also had a terrific cheese counter, never walked away with less than a kilo of assorted cheeses.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
