Scale

Ingredients

  • All-purpose flour, for dusting work surface
  • 1 (17.3-oz) package frozen puff pastry (2 sheets), thawed
  • 1 large egg, whisked with 1 Tablespoon water
  • 2/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup grated gruyere cheese
  • 1 Tablespoon poppy seeds

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the puff pastry: Lightly flour your work surface then unfold the sheets of puff pastry and roll each into a 10×12-inch rectangle. Brush the sheets of puff pastry with the egg wash.
  3. Add toppings: Evenly sprinkle the grated Parmesan, gruyere and poppy seeds atop the puff pastry, then use a rolling pin to lightly roll the toppings into the pastry.
  4. Cut and twist: Using a sharp knife or pizza wheel, cut each sheet of puff pastry into 1-inch strips. Twist the strips then arrange them on the baking sheets, spacing them 1 inch apart. Refrigerate the straws for 10 minutes.
  5. Bake and cool: Bake the straws until they are golden brown and puffed, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove the straws from the oven and let them cool before serving.

Notes

  • Refrigerate the twisted straws for 10 minutes before baking to help maintain their shape and improve crispiness.
