Puff pastry is used for a variety of recipes, since it is so versatile. This recipe is only for creating the puff pastry from scratch, and even though it is a lot of work, it’s well worth it!

This version is used in Ecuador and many other places, although the concept is originally from France. J & J Ch. shared this recipe, thank you very much!
