Puff Pastry Tarts

Puff pastry can be rolled out and used in the same way as pastry that is not layered (nonlaminated pastry), but it should be rolled out very thin so that it doesn’t remain raw in areas where it’s covered with some kind of filling. Because it puffs, you can roll out puff pastry into a rectangle or square and spread filling over, leaving a ½-inch border or so. In this way, the border puffs and forms a natural enclosure for the filling.
