Puff Pastry Spinach & Fish

Description

Spinach is a delicious and beneficial vegetable that makes a great combination together with marinated white fish and puff pastry. Puff pastry is a type of dough made up of horn-shaped layers that are tucked in with a layer of butter that ensures that all the layers are evenly separated from one another while they are baked.

Thus a dough is formed consisting of two layers of dough separated by a layer of fat, mostly butter. Puff pastry gets it's crispness and airiness because a lot of air is formed between the layers by the high temperature the fat reaches inside the dough. The fish can be replaced by tofu, feta or a spicey meat filling. You can make all sorts of spinach pastry.
