We cut the rolled out layer of puff pastry into squares, which we then fold in half, forming triangles. Now, stepping back from the edge by 1-1.5 cm, starting from the base, we make cuts on both sides of the triangle. Moreover, you need to make the cuts in such a way that they do not reach the upper corner of the triangle by one and a half centimeters.

Puff pastry mesh
We will also use the classic design of the pie - a mesh - when making puff pastry.

For this we need a special device, a roller stamp. Having cut out identical squares from the rolled out layer of puff pastry, we divide them in such a way that we get the same number of smooth squares and squares with a mesh. After treating the smooth part with egg white, put the filling on it and cover the top with a mesh. Bake.
