4 pastries with 1 dough

Hello Guys! 
Today I will show a fabulous, multifunctional dough, that we can use for dozens of pastries. Both for sweet and salty. 
And what's even better, this is the original recipe that most of the pastry shops use as well. I learnt it in the confectioner school, and the professional name is the"Blundel- dough " 

The pastries that I show here are the mini versions of the original recipes, as I thought these are more edible in small sizes if you are serving them for guests. 

My boyfriend was amazed how quick I could present 4 really different pastries which tasted so good, and they looked nice as well.
 Finally, I could feel proud. :D (You know it's still hard to compete with his mother and grandmother in baking projects... I can thank this to my confectionery studies. :) )

Frankfurter Croissant

Hey Guys! :)I hope You are doing and feeling fine! 
I'm happy to announce that I am busy again. (The reason is that I finally have a job again, where I am working in a small restaurant :) )  
+  there was another big happening around here, which is a secret for now, but I will tell it later.
But still, I have time for baking, since this is my favorite hobby, so now I brought a salty-sausage - filled little croissant recipe. 
Mines bursted a bit, but they were super tasty! ;)
Let's see how it was done...

Cottage Cheese Biscuits "Túrós pogácsa"

Hi Dears! :)
I hope You are fine, and You can enjoy the beautiful flowers around You.
 I got so pretty tulips, roses, bromeliads for women's day that our kitchen is like a fairyland now. :D
 (A lot of thanks for the gentlemen of the family and friends for that. :D) 
- I will make a photo of  them tomorrow I promise, and post it on Facebook, because now it's evening and it's too dark. -

Also, I have an even BIGGER milestone to announce!
I had my Graduation on Saturday! YAY! I made it. 3 and a half year of full of studying.
 You know, tourism and catering.  I'm now an Economist. :) 
Sounds so clever. :D
 -photo will be of me at the end of the post-
The only thing I'd like now is a great job. Cross fingers for me, pls. :D

OK, let's speak about this biscuit, it's one of my usual recipe for salty snack. The cottage cheese makes it even more soft, so I recommend using it! :)

Cheesy snail crackers

Hello Guys! 
I hope everything is fine there! :) 
I have big news!!! So, first of all -- as You might have seen it on our Fb page -- I passed successfully my biggest exam ever - and graduation is coming! :D
 So I've become an Economist, specialized in catering and hotel management. 
I am so happy. :) And my thesis was so powerful, that I just got an invitation from another 5-star-hotel to participate in a cooking class, as a blogger! 
One of my class mate suggested me after hearing my diploma work about gastro-blogs. 

But for now, I'm looking for suitable jobs for me. It's always an exciting time, deciding what to do in the future. Where to go? 
And then apply and wait for the responses... Just exciting! :) 

Also, I have great ideas about developing this site. You will see how. :) 

And of course I bake quite a lot, and I have a lot of recipes to share, like this Cheesy Snail cracker. As I see in Your countries You usually call these something "rolls" but here we always call these rolled eatable foods "snails". However, the actual snail is not common here as a dish. And honestly, I would never try it. :) Have You eaten a real one? :)

Pogácsa - real Hungarian scones


For about 6 years, I've been experiencing with creating the perfect, soft 'Pogácsa'  scones recipe. 

This is a very common bakery product here, and I bet elsewhere, too.
For example there are bakeries in every metro-stations which are specialised in 'pogácsa' -s , and there is a big competition between them , who makes the perfect one. It's a great business for them, because the wonderful fragrance attracts the passengers, and many of them buy there something, even if they hadn't planned, before.

But this recipe can be among the competitors, too! I wasn't the creator of this, but it is one of my Dearest grand-aunt's recipe, I tried it and it's perfect!!! :) So big thank you, for the wonderful taste! ♥
