How to choose
Look for a golden-brown color and a slightly puffed-up appearance. The pastry should feel light and airy. Avoid pastries that appear pale or soggy. Check the ingredient list – it should primarily contain flour, butter, eggs, water, and salt. Freshly made is best, but pre-made should be from a reputable bakery.
How to store
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage (up to 1 month), freeze. If frozen, thaw completely before using. Filled pastries (e.g., eclairs, profiteroles) are best consumed the same day they are filled to prevent the pastry from becoming soggy.
