Vol-au-vent Cutter Set - Round 8.5cm and 4.5cm
Product number: 72678
Everyone loves a vol-au-vent but even if you don’t go to the trouble of making your own puff pastry it can be a bit of a fiddle cutting out the cases and getting the scoring right for that just-lift-off lid. And that’s why we’ve worked so hard to make these handy Round Vol-au-vent Cutters as easy to use as possible.
All you have to do to cut out 4 large circular vol-au-vents or 8 mini ones with these ingenious cutters is roll out your dough, place a pair of matching-size cutting sheets on top with the cutting side down and roll your rolling pin gently over the top (making sure the crimped outside edge of each cutter cuts right through to your countertop).
One sheet cuts full depth on the outside and only scores the inner circles to make the bases of your vol-au-vents and the other cuts full depth on the inside as well as on the outside to make four rings of pastry to make the sides of your vol-au-vents and four little separate lids. Simply brush your bases with a little egg yolk and place the rings on top... et voilà!
Now all you have to do is decide what to fill them with – coronation prawn, coriander chicken or chocolate and hazelnut cream?
4 sheets making 4 large (8.4cm Dia.) and 8 small (4.5cm Dia.) vol-au-vents.
