  • So, attention! This is not the traditional "Napoleon" we are used to. This is "Napoleon" in the American sense.
  • This is the kind of Napoleon taught at the American Culinary Academy. A recipe from their book.
  • American "Napoleon" - puff pastry in a sweet vanilla cloud of whipped cream. And diluted with the aroma of fresh strawberries.
  • In the winter, I preferred to use homemade frozen strawberries than purchased with chemicals.
  • And this American cake has taken on a European look in my favorite Bush shape. And a thin crust of white chocolate velor appeared on it.
  • The cake didn't just benefit from this, it just sparkled with new colors. Recommend!

Olga, very interesting cake! But the moment remained incomprehensible to me: "We transfer to a baking sheet, pierce with a fork. We send to the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
And now attention: cover the blanks with parchment and press the baking sheet. This will ensure that the puff rises evenly. without voids. Cool the finished puffs on the wire rack. "
And where is the baking itself and how does it work, with a baking sheet on top or otherwise? At what T and how long approximately? After all, if the baking sheet is on top, then nothing is visible.

Now attention: cover the blanks with parchment and press down on a baking sheet. This will ensure that the puff rises evenly. without voids. Cool the finished puffs on the wire rack. "
And where is the baking itself and how does it happen, with a baking sheet on top or otherwise? At what T and how long approximately? After all, if the baking sheet is on top, then nothing is visible.
