Description

These Garlic Straws are the ultimate crowd-pleasing appetizer, offering a delightful contrast between buttery, flaky puff pastry and a savory, aromatic filling. The combination of fresh garlic juice, milk, paprika, and sharp Parmesan cheese creates a rich, umami-packed flavor profile that is irresistible. Perfect for game day gatherings, holiday parties, or as a sophisticated starter before a main course, they are incredibly easy to prepare with pantry staples. The straws bake until golden brown and puffed, providing a satisfying crunch in every bite. Serve them warm, piled high for a rustic presentation that invites sharing. This recipe is a reliable favorite that delivers big flavor with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425&# 194;°F (218ðC).
  2. In a small bowl, mix the garlic juice with most of the milk, reserving a little milk for brushing later.
  3. In another small bowl, combine the paprika, Parmesan cheese, salt, and cayenne pepper.
  4. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry into a thin rectangle.
  5. Brush half of the garlic-milk mixture over the entire surface of the pastry.
  6. Sprinkle half of the Parmesan-paprika mixture evenly over one half of the pastry.
  7. Fold the unseasoned half of the pastry over the seasoned half.
  8. Gently roll out the folded pastry again into a thin rectangle, ensuring it is no more than 1/4 inch thick.
  9. Repeat the process: brush with the remaining garlic-milk mixture and sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan-paprika mixture.
  10. Using a sharp knife or pastry cutter, cut the pastry into strips approximately 1/2 inch wide and 6 inches long.
  11. Arrange the straws on greased baking sheets, spacing them at least one inch apart to allow for rising.
  12. Bake for 7 to 10 minutes, or until the straws are well-risen, puffed, and golden brown.
  13. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
