Introduction:
Indulge in the perfect umami blend of flavours with our latest puff pastry creation. Tender asparagus spears, gooey brie cheese, and a sprinkle of savoury chicken salt come together in a golden, buttery crust. Whether hosting a Mother's Day brunch or craving an easy and elegant appetizer, this recipe promises to impress.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
2 sheets of thawed puff pastry
1 egg
1 bunch of asparagus
½ a teaspoon of The Salted Rooster Chicken Salt
7 ounces of brie.
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Trim your asparagus stems, and then toss with your extra virgin olive oil and roughly half a teaspoon of The Salted Rooster Chicken Salt.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut your pastry sheets into an even eight squares. Place a thin strip of brie in the middle of each square and then add a few asparagus (if you can, go with less thick spears)
- Take the two horizontal sides of each square and fold them inwards, directly over the asparagus and brie. Place those squares onto your parchment paper and subsequent baking sheet.
- Whip your egg in a separate bowl and then brush that mixture over your square pastries.
- Transfer your creations to the oven and check on them after 22 minutes or until they’re perfectly golden.
- (Optional) drizzle with a little bit of honey for a nice little accompanying touch.
Enjoy!
