BACON AND CHEESE STRAWS

Steps:

• Lightly grease a large baking tray with a little oil or line with greaseproof paper.
• Lay out the ready rolled pastry on a floured surface, sprinkle the cheese all over the pastry and fold in half.
• Roll out the pastry to roughly 25 x 40cm (10 x 16 inches). It should be wide enough to place 8 rashers of bacon side-by-side and just a little longer than 1 rasher of bacon in the other direction (see picture above).
• Spread the pastry with the mustard and then lay out the bacon so the bacon is just touching but not overlapping.
• Cut down between the bacon, so you have 8 strips, then twist each strip several times and place on the prepared baking tray.
• Chill the twists for a minimum of 20 minutes in the fridge.
• Just before you plan on cooking the cheese straws, heat your oven to 220C / 200C / gas mark 7 / 425F.
• Remove the cheese straws from the fridge and brush with the beaten egg.
• Cook for 25-30 minutes, or until golden on top and cooked all the way through.
• Eat as soon as they are cool enough to hold.
• Store any uneaten cheese straws in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat for 10 minutes at 220C / 200C / gas mark 7 / 425F or until piping hot all the way through.

BACON AND CHEESE STRAWS

Steps:

• Line a baking tray with greaseproof paper.
• Roll the pastry out on a lightly floured work surface to a large rectangle of 0.5cm/¼in thickness.
• Turn the pastry so that the longest side is facing you, spread over the mustard, sprinkle with the cheese and season with freshly ground black pepper. Place the pieces of bacon onto the pastry, leaving a small gap between each piece.
• Cut the pastry between each slice of bacon. Carefully twist each piece of pastry 4-5 times so it looks like a curly straw, then place on the baking tray.
• Repeat the process until all of the bacon has been used up. Chill the pastry twists in the fridge for 15-20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7.
• Remove the twists from the fridge and brush with the beaten egg.
• Reduce the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6 and bake the twists for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is well risen and golden-brown. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.

SWEET AND SAVORY CHEESY BACON WRAPPED PUFF PASTRY TWISTS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 375° F. Line 2 baking sheets with foil and place a wire rack on top. Lightly rub each rack with olive oil. 2. In a shallow bowl, combine the brown sugar, rosemary, and a pinch each of salt and pepper. 3. Place both sheets of pastry on a lightly floured counter. Brush the surface of each with a beaten egg. Evenly sprinkle about 1/2 cup of cheese over each sheet, then sprinkle with cayenne. Dust a rolling pin lightly with flour and roll the rolling pin over the cheese, gently pressing the cheese into the pastry. Fold the pastry in half, then cut each into 12 (1/2 inch) wide strips. Pinch the ends to seal, then gently twist each strip several times to enclose the cheese. It's ok if some of the cheese falls out. 4. Take a piece of bacon and wrap it around the twisted pastry. Repeat with the remaining twists. Dredge the twist through the brown sugar mix, tossing to coat, placing the twist on the prepared baking sheet as you go. 5. Bake 30 to 50 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through. My bacon took 50 minutes to cook, start checking the twists at around 30 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature...though I love them warm!

CHEESE BACON WRAPPED PASTRY TWISTS RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Line 2 21x15-inch baking sheets with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Spray the rack with nonstick spray. Open one sheet of puff pastry on a cutting board. Brush the surface lightly with some of the beaten egg. Sprinkle with your desired amount of cayenne pepper (I did 1 teaspoon per sheet of puff pastry). Sprinkle surface with 1/2 cup of cheese to evenly cover entire surface. Dust a rolling pin lightly with flour and then roll the rolling pin over the cheese to gently press the cheese into the puff pastry. Take a piece of bacon and wrap it around the twisted pastry and place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining puff pastry and bacon until everything has been used. Add the brown sugar, rosemary, salt and pepper to a shallow bowl or pie plate and toss well. Now carefully take each bacon wrapped pastry one at a time and dip it through the brown sugar mixture, using your hands to coat all over the twist. Place each twist back on the baking sheet and repeat with the remaining twists. Bake the twist for 30 to 50 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through. My bacon took 50 minutes to cook, but it was on the thicker side. I would start checking them at around 30 minutes and then every 5 to 10 minutes after that to make sure they are not burning. Once the bacon is cooked remove from the oven and allow to cool 5 minutes. Then use a spatula to carefully lift the twists off the baking sheet. Serve

PUFF PASTRY BACON TWISTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Lay the two sheets of puff pastry on your cutting board with the long end running left to right and brush lightly with the beaten egg.
• Sprinkle one tablespoon of minced jalapeño over each sheet.
• Divide the shredded cheese between each sheet covering the surface right to the edges.
• Take the palm of your hand and press the cheese into the pastry so it holds in place.
• Take the back side of the dough and fold over to meet the edge closest to you and pinch that seam closed. Pat the top so the top and bottom adhere to each other.
• Take a sharp knife or pizza cutter and cut in half front to back. Then cut each half in half then each quarter in thirds. You will have 12 folded half inch strips.
• Repeat for second sheet.
• Line two sheet pans with foil then place a baking rack in each. Spray the racks with kitchen pan spray.
• Twist each piece two full turns and set back on your board.
• Take each piece of bacon and cut it in half the long way so you have two longs strips. Do this for all 12 pieces so you have 24 long strips.
• Now take each pastry twist and wrap each with a strip of bacon and again place back on your board.
• In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, coriander and cumin and stir to combine then pour out onto a plate or platter.
• Roll each bacon wrapped pastry in the brown sugar mixture and place 12 on each racked sheet pan.
• Bake for 25 minutes, rotate pan and bake for another 25 minutes.
• Ovens vary so start checking for doneness at 40 and 45 minutes - ours took exactly 50 minutes.
• Cool on the rack and serve.

HERBED CHEESY PUFF PASTRY BACON STRAWS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• In a small bowl combine the egg with the mustard and sage or rosemary and season with salt and pepper.
• Unroll the puff pastry onto a rimmed baking sheet. Brush the egg mixture over the puff pastry all the way to the edges. Evenly dust half of the cheese over half of the puff pastry, on one side of the rectangle. Use the parchment to fold the side of the puff pastry without the cheese over the cheese dusted side so that the cheese is now inside the folded puff pastry, then peel off the top of the parchment and let it lay back on the baking sheet. Gently pinch the edges and press down lightly on the pastry to make it adhere to the cheese inside.
• Slice the puff pastry into 12 strips. Brush the top of the strips with the remaining egg wash and sprinkle over the remaining cheese. Gently press down so the cheese adheres.
• Place a piece of bacon on a flat surface, then place one of the strips on top of the bacon, allowing it to stretch very gently so that it is the same length as the piece of bacon. Twist the dough and bacon about 4 times to create a spiral, and place them onto the parchment on the baking sheet, leaving at least 1/2-inch between each straw.
• Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, until the bacon is crisped and the puff pastry is golden brown and cooked through. Serve warm or at room temperature.

LORRAINE'S BACON-CHEDDAR STRAWS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• On a lightly floured work surface, roll the puff pastry into a large rectangle, 1/4-inch-thick.
• Rotate the pastry so that the longer side is facing you. Spread the mustard evenly over the pastry. Lay the bacon slices on the pastry, long side facing you, leaving a small gap in between each slice. Trim any messy edges that spill over the puff pastry, to neaten the rectangle into a straighter edge. Sprinkle the Cheddar over the bacon. Cut in between each slice to form individual pastry-bacon strips.
• Carefully twist each strip 4 or 5 times, so it looks like a curly straw. Place on the prepared baking sheet and brush with beaten egg. Chill in the fridge for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove the twists from the fridge and brush a second time with beaten egg. Bake until the pastry is well risen and golden-brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside to cool.
