This Italian pastry from Naples is a challenge to say the least. The students have been struggling through broken pasta makers to melted butter and dried dough, they have persevered and soon the pastries will be complete. Hundreds of layers of flaky pastry filled with sweet ricotta filling has mouths watering around the school. Teachers are slowly meandering into the class....checking things out.
Anyway. In practical terms, sfogliatelle are a type of laminated pastry, made with disks of tightly rolled, well-lubricated dough that are pushed out like paper yo-yo’s into pockets, then filled. Of course the disks of dough are a lot wider than the diameter of a Chinese paper yo-yo, but the mechanics are the same.....Thank you to Joe Pastry for this description
