This has to be the most detailed Sfogliatella pastry tutorial on youtube!! Well done!!

[@Bennysbaked]

Thank you!

[@Aveeda1]

Great instructions! Thank you 😊

[@teggianosalerno5050]

But this isn't Sfogliatella

[@psychedforlife7176]

​@@Bennysbaked what is the Golden Syrup and is there an American equivalent?

[@mydear6788]

Honey

[@jeraldalcenius8344]

What an absolutely perfect version of Sfogliatella! You did such a great job of taking a recipe that most professionals consider an absolute nightmare and making a great step by step tutorial that's easy to follow! When I used to make these with my grandmother she never used the pasta machine. She'd stretch it out across her dining room table with a special "sofgliatelle tablecloth" she used to help roll it up with. Kudos to you! The only thing that I would say is I vaguely remember there being a difference between Sfogliatella and lobster tails. The lobster tails usually being filled with a choux paste first to help get better height and length and then being filled with cream instead of that beautiful semolina filling. Thanks again!

[@Bennysbaked]

Thank you!

[@pattyfigarola5057]

After watching your video, I think I might be able to actually attempt this. You always take the most challenging bakes and make them approachable. Thank you so very much!

[@mypupiscool]

I’ve been so intrigued lately with this pastry and this is the first video I came across that shows the technique along with the recipe to follow. Thanks, Benny, I’ll give it a go! ❤ I needed this confidence boost. 😊

[@tasst2674]

Omg these looks amazing. My Dad loved these. I am on Keto, but will try and convert the ingredients. Thank you!

[@TheegLife]

Best video I’ve seen on the web for lobster tails. Thanks so much for a great explanation ❤️

[@CN-wn1dw]

Wow! They look amazing.

[@readpostcard]

I'm giving these a shot tomorrow. They look awesome

[@azainkky]

Loved it must try

[@pipperoooo]

Gorgeous! My absolutely favorite pastry. Really great video! Thank you.

[@Bennysbaked]

I'm happy to hear that :) Thank you!

[@Bennysbaked]

Hi guys, Ben here! Thanks for all the feedback and comments🙂 There will be more croissant and laminated pastry related video coming soon. Including a series of detailed theories on the croissant dough, the butter, the proofing, and temperature..etc. I'm back to work now so the upload time would be very random now. However, I do check comments every day and I try to answer all your questions as fast as possible, so feel free to ask any questions! Thanks again for all your supports! Keep claim and bake on!😁

[@dooric]

Ben, I really like your videos. Detailed step by step explanation without any chit-chat. Great music as well ;) Keep posting! Thanks a lot!

[@Bennysbaked]

Thanks for the support! I will :)

[@katerynasogolova8250]

Perfect work! 💎💎💎💎💎 Thank you so much!👏👏👏

[@13c11a]

I learned that they make these in the Philippines and deep fry them. They pinch them shut so the filling doesn't spill out. Wonderful. Thanks.

[@Bennysbaked]

I will try that! Thanks for letting me know!

[@marcysowers2852]

Really great tutorial. I miss the bakeries in NY.

[@craigenputtock]

You are an amazing pastry chef.

[@Bennysbaked]

Thank you 😌

[@batshevagranot1293]

Wow!!! I saw this pastry made once, on master chef, in Israel. I thought it was hard to make, now I know its crazy hard!! Wish I had a pasta maker so I could give it a try, I love challenges!! Thanks for this video, well done!!

[@Bennysbaked]

You can do it!🙂

[@13c11a]

What an achievement! My mouth is watering. Thank you very much.

[@Bennysbaked]

Thank you!

[@rashidabadsha1146]

I’m so happy I found a recipe that uses butter. Thank u.

[@Bennysbaked]

Hope you enjoy

[@inescardillo8829]

Me too. I was thinking of using only butter, but noticed most of the recipes use lard. I suppose instead of lard, you could use vegetable shortening if you want. Butter provides a better flavor too.

[@mcfinnigan23]

Damn these look and sound absolutely perfect! Whenever I visit Puglia in Italy I visit a local Pasticceria and sfogliatelle are always a must buy. Thank you for this detailed tutorial! I really appreciate the time and effort and if I'm brave enough, I'll try to bake them myself soon 😊 I might try and bake them with crema del salento as filling instead, I believe this is the filling the local bakers use.

[@Bennysbaked]

Thank you! Man! I always wanted to go there😬

[@Valeria_airelaV]

@mcfinnigan23 You have to eat them in Naples, where they were born.

[@Lisa7arli7]

Wow this is Amazing 😉

[@pramanmutikhot4276]

Finally, I can find right dough for my apple strudel. Thank you.

[@Bennysbaked]

You're welcome! :)

[@marneerinaldi7092]

Man, if only I had enough hours in my day to do a challenge like this one. How would this ever be a profitable pastry, there is so much work involved!

[@Bennysbaked]

Unless this is the only pastry you sell in your shop, it just wayy too time consuming!!😂

Make sure to chill the semolina mix before adding to cream cheese. :) also we add essence of orange to the water . 😊 thank you so much for this video! I've watched it 100 times

[@Minyassa]

This is fascinating, thank you! I only just heard of sfogliatelle, and came straight to KZbin to see how it was made, and you did not disappoint! Looks like you need a big kitchen and lots of oven space to do this...I'm wondering how cutting the recipe by 1/3 would work. xD

[@Bennysbaked]

Hi, thank you! Yes it'll still work but you won't get as many layers as mine that's all🙂

Thank you!

[@julian3274]

I tried both (what I believe is) the original with semolina filling and the choux-chantilly variation and I have to say the original is the winner by far! Way more interesting than the version with whipped cream.

[@Bennysbaked]

Ikr!

[@Bennysbaked]

@Ivana Notyers sounds yummy?

[@sodawaterlime]

thats so dope

[@anonyme555]

This is why you go to an Italian bakery to get your crunchy lobster tails!!

[@Monicarla67]

Great job. I also made so was delicious. Unfortunately there is hard work for good results. Thanks for recipe.

[@Bennysbaked]

You are welcome!

[@Antonio-sd5yn]

Hi dude, im from Italy Just to say that Sfogliatella and Lobster Tail are different things 😃 Anyway, great result

[@Fallwithme]

Not what I expected out of a random "minecraft long play" playlist, but I will watch it

[@Bennysbaked]

How does youtube know I play minecraft?

[@furballisticfinn6881]

you came from ryanthescion too?

[@marchhare92]

This really looks amazing! The effort you put into it is so worth it at the end, it looks super flaky and yummy. What happen when you stretch too much when greasing the dough with butter, after put it on the rolling pin?

[@Bennysbaked]

HI, and thank you! Do you mean to stretch the dough too thin?

[@unitunitglue5143]

I was told to use shortening instead of butter, I’ll have to try both at point 😋

[@julian3274]

Instant sub

[@TrungLe-kh4hs]

Great video, man! Question: Is it possible to do this by hand without pasta machine? I make pasta by hand a lot, and usually I divide the dough up and roll each individual parts out. Will this apply to the Sfogliatella, or is it too much of an arm workout haha?

[@jaypadia]

Very nicely presented recipe and lovely tips at the end! Are sfogliatella ever made with savory or ground meat filling? Any experience how that would turn out?

[@Bennysbaked]

Thank you! Although I haven't personally made a savory sfogliatella before, I think it's viable! The pastry itself isn't sweet or savory. As long as the filling isn't too wet and has a good binding agent( eggs, roux, etc) They should bake just fine!

[@ssingh8509]

Do I use semolina or semolina flour? Like the fine one or the coarser grind?

[@giuliatarantino2472]

Bravissimo, da l'Italia

[@matteo1429]

Bravo Benny, sembrano davvero originali da Napoli!! (Looks like the original ones from Naples!)

[@Bennysbaked]

Thank you! :)

[@xuanpianocover]

Hi Benny , I was wonder if this is possible to make without using the dough sheeter . Can I roll them out by hand .

[@thuyvuong9874]

Wow this looks amazing, will you be able to make this if you don't have a pasta maker to make it as thin as you have it?

[@Bennysbaked]

You can roll with a rolling pin, but it's going to take a lot of work!

[@hensonlaura]

You are an artist. Edit: And I am a subsciber.

[@Bennysbaked]

☺Thank you!

[@mariamotoum6893]

Are these dry? The seem like there dry. Is there a way to make them so there not so dry?

[@ritarheinstadter2688]

[@tweewin]

Wow, and I thought croissants were difficult to make. This one beats that. LOL

[@Bennysbaked]

Haha, both require practice!

[@tweewin]

@@Bennysbaked I have made croissants plenty of times and it's definitely much easier than this method for sfogliatella. 😂🤣 Lots of butter here, too! Too bad I don't have a pasta roller, so I will have to put this one on the back burner to-make list.

[@Crux161]

Trying this today, with an almond theme 🥰 💕

[@Bennysbaked]

Yummy!

[@Steefaniie]

Thank you for the video! I was wondering, what type of pasta maker do you use? Or how can I know when buying a pasta maker if it will be thin enough?

[@Bennysbaked]

All pasta makers should be fine. You stretch the dough with hands in the final stage.

[@kookadoo]

Came out amazing! A question, first time I hear about this golden syrup, can I substitute it with smth, honey? Also, is it possible to substitute semolina with corn flour? Thanks a lot.

[@Bennysbaked]

Yes you can for both😀

[@pakhoy8648]

Now this is a worthy challenge! Finally found an excuse to buy a pasta machine. Question :how much butter do you need for the recipe?

[@Bennysbaked]

About 200g, depends on how much you grease the pastry, some people use more some less.

[@toshiyukisuzuki7610]

[@XanyCuisine-ox1rb]

Where can I buy that pasta maker?

[@andrelcz3030]

Really nice recipe but ain’t the semolina paste too dry?

[@HotelPapa100]

Dunno about frying in oil. The secret of the flaky pastry is the fat layer keeping the flakes separate. This layer will dissolve as soon as you dump the pastry in the hot oil. You'd have to find a way to connect the flakes at one end and keep them separate at the other.

[@vincentchan1173]

Thank you for providing this very clear tutorial and list of ingredients. I can't wait to give it a try! Question: Can the prepared log be frozen, or better yet can the portioned disks be frozen for future baking?

[@Bennysbaked]

Yes, they freeze very well :)

In fact I have one in the freezer now xd

The sfogliatelle in NJ don’t have the semolina filling though! custard or whipped cream fillings are more popular than the cream cheese and semolina filling 😋

[@lilym6505]

What a fantastic video, super helpful, thanks so much! Just wondering what the estimated yield is (as I’ll definitely be doubling or tripling it! 😂😍) Thanks!

[@Bennysbaked]

Roughly about 14-15 for 1 recipe. That's a lot of dough you have to roll!😂

[@lilym6505]

[@rkmugen]

I saw one filled with pistachio cream (or is it a pistachio paste?)..... i am intrigued by this. WHY hasn't this become a hit in America, while the croissant is otherwise ubiquitous and enjoys the perceived fame it has?

[@yvonnetheuma4880]

What kind of butter you used for the spreading on the dough.

[@Bennysbaked]

Unsalted butter

[@Karawoolfe]

Originale recepe calls for ricotta and semolina, but i would like to try this as well, if you make them smaller you can fill them with chocolate pastry cream

[@Bennysbaked]

Great idea!

[@jaweriakhan5853]

Can I use sugar instead of golden syrup?

[@aris1956]

Hi here from Italy ! You did not use Ricotta cheese for the filling, as is the case with the original Neapolitan Sfogliatelle in Naples ? I read… Cream cheese ... but not.. Ricotta.

[@Meiko0023]

hello what can i use instead of maple syrup? how many hours can the dough stay in the fridge? Thank you

Honey, 1-2 days.
