Trader Joe's Puff Pastry

Dee.Dee said:

I got an email today that Trader Joe has an all-butter puff pastry (2
sheets) 16 oz. for $4.99, no artifical colors, flavors or preservatives.

Hoping they have it on the East Coast.

That's a good price. Round here it's as high as $10/lb. I always
make it myself instead of paying that.

Oh, wow! That's about half the price I normally see.

I just bought some the other day here in San Diego (well, it was in Point Loma, but
same diff, right?)
I haven't used it yet but I am going to make this recipe I saw for Pork Wellingtons
with it. I'll let you know how it comes out!

Thanks, Kimberly.

I saw on TV Alton Brown showing how to thaw puff pastry, and I looked for it
foodnetwork to see if he wrote about it in detail, but there is nothing
about it on his one puff pastry recipe using it with cherries.

As I recall he let it thaw about 15 minutes under a towel and then started
picking it up by the ends, gingerly, up to about 20 minutes. Then he took a
rolling pin to roll out the folds.

Best of luck. I'll be looking forward to it. Yes, Point Loma -- same
thing. (Resident of San Diego 1964-1970)

We've gotten it and it is quite good. I really like their pie crusts
too.

Yes, I saw on their email ad the pie crusts also, but it didn't say the oil
that was used in them.
Thanks.

Thanks, Marcella. I appreciate it. I might try the piecrust myself on a
pumpkin pie (with a can of pumpkin I have on hand).

I like palm (fruit) oil, as long as it is not hydrogenated. There is never
any reason to hydrogenate it IMO, but I've seen it listed; wonderment!
