Savita's Recipe Notes:
The oven must be preheated to a high temperature, usually 400° to 450° F, when the dough is placed in the oven. If the oven is not hot, the butter will melt and the moisture will evaporate before steam make flaky layers.© Chef De Home. Post content including video and photos are copyright protected.
