TIPS & TRICKS:

When working with puff pastry let the sheet of pastry set on the counter for about 20 minutes so it’s more pliable.
Add a little flour on the board to roll out the dough a bit before prepping the dish. This will prevent the pastry dough from sticking to the board.
Resist the temptation of cutting directly into the pastry after removing from the oven. Let it rest for 30 minutes at least before serving so the pastry sets up.
