alcohol in puff pastry
Something to watch out for,
I bought store ready made puff pastry, cheap old stuff.
Didn't bother to check the ingredients list until i got home, i try to avoid palm oil so was disappointed to see that and then i noticed ethanol ..
ethanol in puff pasty ! i opened the pack and had a sniff , euggh i could smell those fumes .. bleugh why ruin my trashy food purchase with that rubbish ..
Alcohol has stolen another £1.50 from me and messed up my plans for dinner ( no surprise eh ? ) , into the bin with it and home made short crust pastry from now on.
Always read the ingredients ,

I think a small amount, <1% is used as a preservative. That said I suppose once you know it's there then you are aware of it.
It appears to be considered Halal -acceptable to the Muslim community which I notice most of the enquiries came from.
