Not sure why the bad reviews. But i can only assume that straight from the fridge it would crack/break because it hasnt had time to soften to a warm room temperature. My advice - take pastry out of fridge 30 mins to an hour before attempting to roll out, then it will be more pliable to work with & shouldnt crack. Rises well. lovely n light when cooked.
Sticks like glue to the backing paper resulting in
Sticks like glue to the backing paper resulting in the pastry stretching and then shrinking back during cooking. Would not recommend at all
DO NOT BUY THIS
If I could give this zero I would. It sticks to the paper like glue, comes off in clumps has the weirdest consistency ever even the bit i managed to use for the bottom of my pie went all bready and gross.
Don't waste your money
Not recommended, cheap isn't always better. I used this pastry to make cheese and bacon turnovers I'd made them many times using a known brand but thought I would try this because it was bigger What a waste of money, I left it out to get to room temperature but it stuck horribly to the paper then did not puff up it was more like shortcrust. I had bought 3 so tried again not waiting so long after taking it out of the fridge and it was even worse Honestly I've made these turnovers so many times and they are a family staple but I won't be buying this pastry again.
Wouldn’t recommend
It was awful, was stuck to the paper and I just couldn’t get it off. Had to bin it and use a different one
Not as flaky as the brands I usually use.
The larger pack appealed but the pastry is not quite right. Not awful but not as flaky as usual and I would not buy it again. In the past I have used Jusrol and Tesco's own which I think are pretty much the same.
Simply bea
I used this for a creamy salmon and vegetable tart from one of Tesco's recipes on line and it came out beautifully. Pastry was easy to handle. Result! It was flaky, light and cooked through evenly. (Didn't have any of the issues mentioned by other reviewers). As the pastry was so large, I cut off the excess and used it at a later date. The result was the same...golden, crispy and delicious. Can't fault it and would definitely recommend. Guess it depends on what you're using it for. I'll be buying it again.
love it
I use it for baking
Don’t buy
Agree with previous reviews - stuck to the paper and was more like shortcrust - very disappointing!
