PARMESAN & HERB CHEESE STRAWS RECIPE - (5/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Unroll the puff pastry sheet onto a cutting board. Brush both sides with egg. Sprinkle each side with 2 tablespoons cheese, 1 teaspoon seasoning, salt, & pepper. Press topping lightly into pastry. Cut into 1/2-inch thick strips to get 16 cheese straws. Gently twist each strip & place on prepared baking sheet. Bake 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Reheat any leftovers at 350°F for 5 minutes.

PARMESAN CHEESE STRAWS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Roll the dough into a rectangle about 1/4-inch thick. Brush with some of the egg wash and sprinkle with half of the Parmesan and paprika. Gently run the rolling pin over the dough to press the cheese mixture into it. Turn the dough over, brush it again with egg wash and sprinkle with remaining cheese and paprika. Again, gently run the rolling pin over the dough to press the cheese into it. Transfer the dough to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and chill for at least 30 minutes.
• Line a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper that does not extend all the way to the end, leaving about 1 inch of baking sheet uncovered. With a pastry wheel or sharp knife, cut the dough lengthwise into 1/2-inch strips. Twist the strips corkscrew fashion and arrange 1/2 inch apart on the parchment lined baking sheet. Press the ends of the strips onto the bare baking sheet at each end so they stick and hold the dough stretched and in place.
• Bake in the oven for 10 minutes, or until puffed and golden. Cut crosswise into 4-inch lengths while hot and let cool on racks.
• Note: Straws may be stored in air-tight containers for 1 to 2 days. Keep in a cool, dry place. Crisp in the oven before serving.

CHEESE STRAWS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Roll out each sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured board until it is 10- by 12-inches. Beat the egg with 1 tablespoon of water and brush the surface of the pastry. Sprinkle each sheet evenly with 1¿4 cup of the Parmesan, 1¿2 cup of the Gruyère, 1¿2 teaspoon of the thyme, 1¿2 teaspoon of the salt, and some pepper. With the rolling pin, lightly press the flavorings into the puff pastry. Cut each sheet crosswise with a floured knife or pizza wheel into 11 or 12 strips. Twist each strip and lay on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
• Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until lightly browned and puffed. Turn each straw and bake for another 2 minutes. Don't over bake or the cheese will burn. Cool and serve at room temperature.

PARMESAN CHEESE STRAWS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a large nonstick baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a small bowl, mix the cheese, chili powder and cumin. Place the sheets of phyllo on a work surface and cover them with a damp towel. Remove the first sheet and place it with short side toward you. Coat with nonstick cooking spray (butter-flavored is nice), then sprinkle with about 2 teaspoons of the cheese mixture; fold the phyllo in 1/2 to form a 12 by 8 1/2-inch rectangle. Spray the phyllo again and sprinkle with 2 more teaspoons of the cheese mixture; fold in 1/2 again to form a 6 by 8 1/2-inch rectangle. Spray the phyllo again and sprinkle with 2 more teaspoons of the cheese mixture; fold in 1/2 again to form a 6 by 4 1/4-inch rectangle. Spray again and sprinkle with just a bit of the cheese mixture; with a serrated knife, cut into 8 short strips. Transfer the strips to the baking sheet, placing them about 1/2-inch apart. Repeat the process 2 more times to make 24 cheese straws. Bake until the cheese straws are crisp and golden, about 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on wire racks.

PARMESAN, BLACK PEPPER AND ROSEMARY CHEESE STRAWS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a small bowl, toss together the cheeses, herbs and cracked black pepper. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture.
• In a separate small bowl, whisk the egg with 2 teaspoons water to make an egg wash.
• Roll the puff pastry out on a floured surface to a rectangle about 12-by-10 1/2 inches. Brush the entire surface with egg wash. Cut the pastry in half crosswise forming 2 rectangles. Sprinkle the herb cheese mixture over one rectangle and top with the other. Using the rolling pin, roll the pastry just to help the 2 rectangles adhere. Using a pizza wheel or a sharp knife, cut the layered pastry into 1/2-inch-wide strips; you'll get about 24. Twist each strip and transfer it to a prepared baking sheet, pinching each of the ends tightly, spacing the strips about 2 inches apart from one another. Brush strips with egg wash and sprinkle with reserved cheese mixture.
• Bake until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack before serving.

QUICK CHEESE STRAWS

Steps:

• heat oven to 220c/fan 200c/gas 7. Unroll a puff pastry, scatter over a couple of handfuls of grated Parmesan, then fold in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll out to the thickness of a £1 coin. Cut into 1cm strips, then twist the strips 3-4 times. Lay on a baking sheet, scatter over more cheese and bake for 12 mins, or until golden. Leave to cool, then keep in an airtight container for up to 2 days. As these cheese straws are very delicate, roll them in kitchen paper before packing into a plastic container.

ROSEMARY-PARMESAN CHEESE STRAWS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
• Carefully unfold one puff pastry sheet onto a cutting board and brush with the melted butter.
• Sprinkle with 1/4 cup Parmesan and 1/2 tablespoon rosemary. Add a dash of garlic powder and sprinkle salt across the length of the pastry.
• Fold the sheet in half, lengthwise. Brush the top of the folded sheet with the beaten egg and sprinkle with 1/4 cup Parmesan, 1/2 tablespoon rosemary, a dash of garlic powder and a sprinkle with salt.
• Cut the pastry into 1/2-inch strips with a knife or pizza cutter.
• Twist the strips at each end in opposite directions to create a spiral effect. Stretch each strip slightly and pinch each end as you place the strip onto one of the prepared baking sheets, about 1 inch apart.
• Repeat with the remaining puff pastry sheet, melted butter, Parmesan, rosemary, garlic powder, salt and egg.
• Bake until the straws are lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 2 minutes before serving.

PARMESAN STRAWS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, whisk together egg and 1 tablespoon water; set egg wash aside. In another small bowl, combine Parmesan, mustard powder, salt, and cayenne; set aside.
• On a lightly floured work surface, roll out dough (still folded in thirds) to a 12-by-16-inch rectangle. With short side facing you, cut in half crosswise; brush one side of both halves with egg wash. Sprinkle one egg-washed half with cheese mixture. Sandwich halves together, egg-washed sides facing in; press lightly to adhere. Run a rolling pin over dough to seal.
• With short side facing you, cut dough crosswise into 24 strips, each 8 inches long and 1/2 inch wide. Place strips, 1 inch apart, onto 2 baking sheets; twist strips, pressing down on ends to adhere them to sheets. Bake until cheese straws are puffed and golden, 8 to 10 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through.
