Snails: Secrets and Tips
• Add some butter to the dough, then when forming the buns it will not stick to your hands.
• When rolling, do not use a large amount of flour in the powder, otherwise the baking will be heavy, not airy.
• If, without flour, a rolling pin sticks to the dough all the time, use a regular bottle for rolling, pouring ice water into it.
• It is not necessary to put the buns on a baking tray butt, it is better to have a distance of 3-5 cm between them: when baking the buns, the snails will increase in size.
• Snails with a golden top are obtained when the dough is smeared with a mixture of water and egg yolk before baking.
• Do not refrigerate the buns, putting them on top of each other, the contact points will become damp. It is better to let the products cool right on the baking sheet.
