Tallyrand Food and Cooking Tips

Food tip on pastry

When making any pastry, it should be rested for at least an hour before it is used (overnight is preferable), after rolling and lining the case it needs to be rested again. This resting period allows the gluten strands to relax, preventing the pastry from shrinking when baked.

When baking any tart or cake cover it with some tin foil before placing it in the oven and remove when the cooking is almost complete to let it brown. Baking it this way, will prevent them from burning and allow you to control the colouring process.
