Fluted Rolls
Origin: London, England
Source: Isabella Beeton, 1861
Ingredients
- Puff-paste
- the white of an egg
- sifted sugar
- jelly or preserve
Instructions
- Make some good puff-paste by recipe No. 1205 (trimmings answer very well for little dishes of this sort);
- roll it out to the thickness of 1/4 inch, and, with a round fluted paste-cutter, stamp out as many round pieces as may be required; brush over the upper side with the white of an egg;
- roll up the pieces, pressing the paste lightly together where it joins;
- place the rolls on a baking-sheet, and bake for about 1/4 hour.
- A few minutes before they are done, brush them over with the white of an egg; strew over sifted sugar, put them back in the oven; and when the icing is firm and of a pale brown colour, they are done.
- Place a strip of jelly or preserve across each roll, dish them high on a napkin, and serve cold.
