Steps for Vol-au-vent with Ricotta, Salmon, and Lemon Cream

  • Let’s see how to prepare the vol-au-vent.

    First of all, buy the vol-au-vent, if you prefer to prepare them yourself, roll out the puff pastry and cut it with a pastry cutter to obtain 24 pieces, of which 8 will remain as they are while the others will be cut again with a smaller pastry cutter, take the pieces with the hole and place 2 layers on top of the whole one, brush with a little egg yolk and bake until golden brown. In a bowl, put the ricotta, salt, pepper, and lemon zest and mix well, fill the vol-au-vent, cut the salmon into thin strips, add it to the pastries, and complete with a drizzle of oil, a little dill, and a zest of lemon, arrange and your appetizer is ready to be served.

Notes

If you have leftover vol-au-vent, store them in the refrigerator in a closed container for up to 24 hours. The next day, simply heat them in the oven for 2/3 minutes or remove them from the refrigerator at least half an hour before.
