Ingredients
You will need to cook boiled sausage (1 “long loaf”), flour (1 cup) and puff pastry yeast or yeast -free (500 g), which can be purchased at the store.
Often people are interested in the question: "How to bake sausage" roses "?" The recipe is actually quite simple. However, some believe that it is better to make the dough yourself. In this case, it will take more time and trouble, but the dish will turn out tastier.
How to cook puff pastry yourself: the first look
Some housewives like to do everything with their own hands, including dough. This is not surprising, because it will be much more useful than bought in a store. Then puff "roses" with sausage will turn out delicious at home. For cooking, you will need the following ingredients:
- flour;
- margarine;
- chicken eggs;
- salt;
- water.
Puff pastry consists of two different types. The first is prepared as follows: chop margarine (200 g) finely on a board with flour (2/3 cup) into small crumbs. It is necessary that a friable mass is obtained. Then collect it in a loose ball and temporarily set aside.
Preparation of the second type of dough
The second type is made a little differently. Flour (2 cups) is poured into a container. Next, they break one egg into another vessel, beat it with a fork and add enough water to get a volume of 2/3 cup. Sprinkle the resulting mixture with a pinch of salt and pour flour into it. First, knead the mass with a spoon, and then with your hands. It should turn out a soft dough, from which a not very thin layer is rolled out and a dough ball made earlier is laid on it. Now they wrap it in an envelope and lay it seam down on a plate pre-sprinkled with flour. All this is placed in the refrigerator for half an hour.
After the required time has passed, the dough is taken out and a thin cake is rolled out. Then they fold it into the envelope again and put it in a cold place for half an hour. Repeat the procedure several times.
How to make yeast dough
This type of dough is made quickly. Ingredients Required:
- wheat flour - 0.5 kg;
- creamy margarine - 400 g;
- egg yolk - 2 pcs.;
- sour cream - 100 g;
- sugar - 1 tablespoon;
- milk - ½ cup.
Instead of fresh yeast (70 g), plain dry yeast weighing 23-25 g is used. They must be dissolved in milk with sugar, adding 1 tablespoon of flour. Put the resulting mixture in a warm place. At this time, margarine is finely chopped, salt is poured into the flour, and everything is mixed until crumbs are formed. Then transfer the resulting mass to a wide tank. Then pour the yolks mixed with sour cream mixed in a separate bowl. After this, yeast is added and the dough is kneaded, which should turn out to be very tender, but not sticking to the hands. Now everything is ready for the manufacture of flour products.
The algorithm for the preparation of "roses": the formation of "buds"
Store dough should be allowed to defrost slightly. It takes about 20-30 minutes. "Roses" from puff pastry with sausage are made quite simply.
- When the dough becomes soft, roll the cake in one direction so that the flour structure is not broken, then the baking will be more magnificent. Tip: it’s more convenient to roll it out not with a rolling pin, but with a bottle of wine, into which cold water is poured.
- Next, cut strips with a width of about 3-4 cm and divide them into two parts (20 cm each).
- Sausage is cut into thin circles 3-5 mm thick and divided in half. In this recipe, it can be anything: boiled, smoked and any other.
- Three to four slices of sausage are placed on each strip so that on one side there is a little empty dough. The slices should be laid out to the middle of the strip with the side straight down so that their upper part protrudes slightly beyond the edges.
- After that, roll the roll carefully, forming "rosettes" of puff pastry with sausage. The remaining small portion of the dough should be slightly moistened with water (for better adhesion) and the product should be firmly fixed at the bottom, otherwise it risks breaking up during baking.
Cooking sausage "roses": baking
The resulting products are placed on a baking sheet or baking dish (but not close to each other, otherwise they will stick together), on parchment paper. It should not be covered with anything, because the dough contains a lot of butter, and the pastries will not burn.
To make the buns look even more appetizing, their sides can be greased with a chicken egg, after having beaten it thoroughly. But even if this is not done, the result will still be amazing. “Rosettes” of puff pastry with sausage are placed in a well-warmed up to 180 degrees oven (which you need to worry about in advance) for about 20 minutes. You can bake at a temperature of 220 degrees, time will be reduced to 15 minutes. The appearance of a blush on the sausage indicates that the baking is ready.
How to decorate roses from dough with sausage?
Ready buns are laid out on a plate in which cheese plates lie. Top decorated with celery leaves. Baking will look original on lettuce leaves, on top of which dill is laid. You can decorate with slices of pickles and small round pieces of sausage, and on top put a small sprig of greenery.
Sausage "roses" in puff pastry will be a great addition to any festive feast, especially for children's birthday. Usually they disperse very quickly, so the housewives make a lot of these "roses". Instead of sausages, you can take ham or tomatoes with cheese.
