Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Herbed Salmon Puff Pastry.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper to keep things tidy.
Step 2
Next, take your salmon and cut it into six equal pieces, each roughly the size of a deck of cards—perfect for wrapping! Now, unfold your thawed puff pastry and slice each sheet into three rectangles, giving you a total of six delightful pieces.
Step 3
Roll each rectangle out to about 5 x 8 inches, trimming any excess pastry to keep it neat and manageable.
Step 4
It’s time to add some flavor! Spread 1.
Step 5
5 tablespoons of creamy spreadable cheese on one half of each puff pastry rectangle, making sure to leave a 1/4-inch border around the edges.
Step 6
Place a piece of salmon right on top, then sprinkle it with a dash of garlic salt and black pepper for that extra zing.
Step 7
Top the salmon with another 1.
Step 8
5 tablespoons of cheese, because who doesn’t love a cheesy surprise? Now, grab a sharp knife and cut staggered slits on the opposite side of the puff pastry.
Step 9
This will create a beautiful design and help the steam escape while baking.
Step 10
Gently fold the pastry over the salmon, crimping the edges to seal in all that deliciousness.
Step 11
Place your lovely salmon packets on the lined baking sheet and repeat this process with the remaining salmon and pastry.
Step 12
In a small bowl, beat an egg until it’s light and frothy—this will be your golden egg wash.
Step 13
Brush it generously over the tops of your salmon packets, then sprinkle a pinch of garlic salt and pepper for a finishing touch.
Step 14
Pop those beauties into your preheated oven and bake for about 35 minutes, or until the pastry turns a gorgeous golden brown.
Step 15
The aroma wafting through your kitchen will be irresistible! Once they’re done, serve them immediately, garnished with fresh dill for a pop of color and flavor.
Step 16
Enjoy your delightful salmon puff pastries, perfect for impressing guests or treating yourself to a special meal!.
