Puff Pastry with Homemade Blueberries jam 蓝莓果醬酥



I bought a pack of puff pastry few months back, but now I totally forgot what actually I was planning to make at that time. Before the pastry getting expired, I have to quickly use it. First I tried this puff pastry with homemade blueberries jam. And today I use it to make pork and fennel puff rolls (picture posted in my Instagram account).

 

 

 

Making own blueberries jam, it was so fresh and good!

 

This was my first time using Pampas brand of puff pastry. They come with bigger size, so it is flexible to make into any size. And i found this pastry is less greasy. And I learnt this method of folding pastry from a cookbook that I have.

 

My family appreciate this puff a lot!!
