I imagine many people's weekends were spent like mine - with a bowl of flour, instant yeast and water fermenting in a warm corner of the kitchen as they went about their business, courtesy of Jim Lahey and that kitchen...
A pastry that's French-inspired, party-perfect and dead easy. Serve it as a warm meatless appetizer, or have a slice with a warm bowl of soup for a simple lunch or dinner.
These are rich, yummy layered squares that require no bowl or mixing. They are very easy to make and come out wonderful.
