Shrimp in a Puff Pastry Crust

During a summer evening, I wanted to think outside the box. Exit the traditional appetizers, I opted for these little crispy wonders. The success was such that my guests kept asking me for the recipe. It was an unforgettable moment of sharing and indulgence!

Can the shrimp be prepared in advance?
Absolutely! You can prepare the shrimp and wrap them in puff pastry a few hours before. Keep them in the refrigerator and bake them just before serving.

Which puff pastry to choose?
Opt for a good quality puff pastry, preferably pure butter. It brings an unrivaled crispiness and flavor to your starter.

How to get a perfect crispiness?
The key lies in the cooking temperature: 190°C in static mode. Also, don’t forget to brown your shrimp well with the beaten egg for a golden and appetizing color.

The secrets of a successful puff pastry
For a perfectly crispy puff pastry, it is essential to work it quickly and keep it fresh. If it becomes too soft during preparation, do not hesitate to place it in the refrigerator for a few minutes.

The Art of Marinating Shrimp
A good marinade can make all the difference. Let your shrimp marinate with lemon, olive oil, and a pinch of salt. This will enhance their flavor and add a touch of freshness.
