Anchovy Puffs Recipes

ANCHOVY PUFFS

Steps:

• In a small bowl with a fork mash anchovies with mayonnaise.
• On a lightly floured surface roll out both sheets of pastry into 14-inch squares and trim edges to form 13-inch squares.
• Brush off excess flour and spread anchovy mayonnaise evenly over 1 pastry sheet.
• Cover with remaining pastry sheet and press sheets together gently.
• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• With a 3- to 4-inch decorative cutter (a fish-shaped one would be the best!) cut pastry into shapes.
• Reserve scraps and cut into bite-size pieces to bake separately.
• (To eliminate scraps, you can forego decorative shapes altogether and simply cut pastry into squares.).
• Arrange pastries on lightly greased baking sheets and brush tops with egg wash.
• With the edge of a cookie cutter or the back of a sharp knife score fish.
• Bake pastries in oven until puffed and golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
