What is puff pastry in France ? Looks wonderful ...
Posted by Deanna on December 28, 2005 6:07 PMDeanna - In French, puff pastry is pâte feuilletée: you can order it from your bakery, or buy it pre-rolled at the grocery store.

Posted by chef 'em out on December 28, 2005 7:14 PMUmmm, don't know anyone intimidated by the thought of cooking scallops: easiest thing in the world to cook and takes only a few minutes.
In the USA one cannot eat scallops raw as we do not get them in a very fresh state, and never in the shell. Also, most of our coastal waters have been infected by the hurricanes that hit the coasts this year.
Posted by REnate on December 28, 2005 8:53 PMMy daughter and I have decided to have a little celebration to mark the 250th anniversary of the dear Mozart's birth...these tartlets will be on the menu!
I hope that sooner than later the waters clear along that coastline...my warm wishes to all those still affected by the hurricane..

Posted by francofile on December 29, 2005 5:33 PMHi Clothilde,
Posted by Nicky on January 1, 2006 8:44 PMWhat an extravagant combination! I don't know, if I would need the puff pastry, but the scallop-mango combination sounds like a perfect match! We did scallops for our Christmas Dinner (to start off with something small) and they were prepared in no time - yet sooo yummy.
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas season and wish you all the best for 2006 :)
Quelle merveille!
