Can you make with butter instead of fairy margarine
@DarchalaАй бұрын
they do not come out as flaky if you use butter. The margarine I use has some lard in it to make the pastry flaky. You could use a mixture of butter with lard

How are you making the stuffing, just ricotta?
@Darchala3 ай бұрын
there is a link at the end of the video to another quick video showing how I make the ricotta filling, it is basically ricotta, eggs, salt and pepper. The important thing is not to use the smooth ricotta, this video shows the one I use kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYOuqHlma6l-a9U

Not bad, not a bad try. As an old Maltese man who saw pastizzi being made locally for 84 years I would advise that the shape could be neater. In Malta we have many type of boats and this " boat style", chosen by this gentleman is not a " Maltese boat" like a "local bimbu" which is a wide boat with two pointed ends. The shape here is more like a narrow Indonesian "Proa" of a Canadian "Indian Canoe" which is narrower, The cooking needed a few more minutes as the colour is not right. Note that in the old days, steel swords were made in layers as this gentleman made the dough, I call it the " binary method" and I often use it to teach binary numbers hence 0 1, 2, 4, 7. 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024. The blacksmith used to heat the block of steel and fold it and hammer it down and this made a strong flexible steel which was not so brittle but hard enough, The layers in the sword were welded as there was no margarine to keep them apart and to separate the dough to make it very puffy. It was through making dough for our local Pastizzi that I learnt the binary numbers and made a career of electrical engineering while enjoyiung eating the local pastizzi. While in England I taught them how to make pastizzi and the people from Cornwall Par taught me how to make Cornish Pasties................it was a fair exchange of cultures I suppose , Thank you for appreciating our local history! In Malta we are fast loosing our traditional culture to tourism, let us hope that we do not lose our pastizzi

@scribblygumskangaroorescue9124 Жыл бұрын
it might be hard for it to mix the dough, you can mix it by hand though. the traditional way was to mix by hand. Just put the flour on the bench and make a well in the middle then draw the flour in from the sides to combine it, then knead it by hand.

No, that pastry mix made 2-3 dozen, mine are a bit larger than the ones you buy. If I made them like the commercial ones, then I think you would get 4 dozen or more. If you look at 26:32 time on the video, you will see I have more than half of the pastry left after making the first dozen

you can definitely try butter or lard; should get flakiness; not tried oil but it should work as well as that's what is used for chinese scallion pancakes and they are very flakey as well -- don't listen to the other commenter; they seem to be talking out of a very inflated ass judging from their other comments

@@alep_bet yet you are talking about something that is not this. butter on its own will not work as well, oil will not work either, they both make a very tough dough. Butter with lard will work as does margarine with lard in it, straight vegetable margarine does not work as well either. Basically you need a shortening component in what ever you use.
