Homemade zhu-zhu - puff pastry that you can't resist!

for the dough:

  • 600 ml of water
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 900 g of flour

for coating:

  • 250 g of margarine
  • 1 piece of yolk
  • 3 tablespoons yogurt
  • 30 g sesame
  • 1 teaspoon of sea salt
  1. Knead the dough from water, salt and flour. Make a good dough and immediately roll out a large crust with a rolling pin. Grate whole margarine.

  2. Fold the dough first into three strips, then fold the dough in half on one side and then fold the other side over the first.

  3. You folded the dough like a letter. Cut all the folded edges with a knife, on all sides.

  4. Cover the dough with a plastic bag and let it rest for at least 20 minutes. Due to natural fermentation, the dough is better and has bubbles if it stands or rests for a longer time. Fold the process three more times with the same order of folding the dough and with a break of 20 minutes each. Be sure to cover the dough with a plastic bag. Flour a work surface and use a rolling pin to roll out a square crust to approximately 15 mm thick.

  5. Cut squares as desired with a rolling pin. I have cut both smaller and larger ones, but I liked the small 1×1 ones the most. Arrange them in a tray with a slight distance.

  6. Beat the egg yolks with yogurt and coat each one with a brush. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sea salt. Let them rest for 20 minutes and bake at 220 C until they are golden brown and flaky.
