Vols-au-vent


25 June 2013 - Vols-au-vent
I found a puff pastry at nearby market and made it into mini Vols-au-vent \(^o^)/
It's great to have a ready-made puff pastry in the pantry, practical and easy. The filling is made from Béchamel sauce and bite sizes chicken breast.

A vol-au-vent , French for "windblown", to describe its lightness) is a small hollow case of puff pastry. Vols-au-vent are typically made by cutting two circles in rolled out puff pastry, cutting a hole in one of them, then stacking the ring-shaped piece on top of the disc-shaped piece. This pastry is usually found filled with savory ingredients, but can also have a sweet filling.
