Preparation of the puff pastry cake<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Butter Dough<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mix 560 g<\/strong> of butter with 240 g<\/strong> of soft flour until you obtain a smooth and workable dough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shape it into a rectangle 1.5\u20132 cm thick, wrap it, and chill until firm but still flexible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

D\u00e9trempe (dough)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a bowl, <\/strong>combine 560 g<\/strong> of soft flour with 24 g<\/strong> of sea salt. Incorporate 180 g<\/strong> of softened butter and 4 g <\/strong>of vinegar dissolved in 240 g<\/strong> of cold water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mix just enough to obtain a smooth dough (without overdeveloping the gluten). Shape into a rectangle, wrap it, and chill for 30\u201340 minutes.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Wrapping and Rolling<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Place the chilled butter dough<\/strong> on the work surface. Position the d\u00e9trempe<\/strong> on top and wrap so that the butter is on the outside<\/strong> (inverted pastry configuration).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. First double fold:<\/strong> Roll into a long rectangle (8\u20139 mm), fold in four (like a double letter). Chill for at least 30 minutes.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Second double fold:<\/strong> Repeat rolling and folding. Chill for at least 30 minutes.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Single fold:<\/strong> Roll out again and fold in three. Chill for at least 30 minutes<\/strong> before the final rolling.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Shaping and Baking<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Roll out to 4\u20135 mm <\/strong>and cut a ring (tart). Prick lightly to control rising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Place on a tray lined with parchment paper. Dust with a thin layer of icing sugar<\/strong> (or very fine sugar) to help with glazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Bake in the oven at 170\u202f\u00b0C for 50 minutes<\/strong> (even heat). Halfway through baking, lightly dust with more sugar and, if you want an intense shine, rotate the tart for 5\u20138 minutes<\/strong> to caramelize evenly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Cool on a wire rack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Chantilly cream<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    With the cream very cold, beat at medium speed; when it begins to foam, gradually add 40 g<\/strong> of sifted icing sugar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Whip until firm peaks<\/strong> and a creamy texture are achieved, without overbeating. Keep chilled in a piping bag fitted with a large star tip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Decoration and Assembly<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Using a serrated knife, slice the tart in half<\/strong> horizontally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Fill the base with even waves of chantilly using the star tip<\/strong>. Cover with the top, adjusting without pressing too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Classic finish:<\/strong> Dust with icing sugar<\/strong> just before serving.
