Mille-feuille
God day,
I trust you are well.
Please tell me exactly how you cut the baked puff pastry for the mille-feuille. I normally cut it before I bake it. How do you cut it after baking where it holds its shape

To cut puff pastry after baking and maintain its shape without breaking, follow these tips:
1. Let it cool: Allow the puff pastry to cool completely before cutting. This helps the structure set and reduces the likelihood of breaking.
2. Use a sharp knife: Use a serrated knife or a very sharp knife to cut the pastry. A sharp knife will make clean cuts and reduce the risk of breaking the pastry.
3. Cut gently: Make gentle, firm cuts without applying too much pressure. This prevents the pastry from being crushed or crumbling.
4. Additional support: If the pastry is very fragile, you can place a light hand on top of it to keep it steady while cutting.
5. Cutting technique: For more precise cuts, use a sawing motion rather than pressing straight down.
6. Flat surface: If possible, cut the pastry on a flat, hard surface to ensure even cuts.
By following these steps, you can cut puff pastry in a way that maintains its shape and prevents breaking.
Greetings.
