About Antoniou Fillo Pastry
Fashionably Mediterranean and healthily low in fat, paper thin fillo pastry is becoming more and more popular as an alternative to the more traditional puff and shortcrust pastries. The word fillo is Greek for "leaf" that is an evocative way of describing the light crispiness of the pastry at its best. With its origins in southern Europe and the Middle East, there are many arguments as to the origins of the pastry.
The distinguishing characteristic of fillo pastry is that it traditionally is made without any shortening or fat. Unlike puff pastry that relies on the fat content within the pastry to obtain a "layering" effect once it is cooked, with fillo pastry the end user of the product determines what type and what quantity of shortening/fat is used in any recipe. The layering effect with fillo pastry is achieved by layering the desired number of sheets of pastry for any given recipe.
Long gone are the days when fillo pastry was only seen as
being associated with traditional Greek style deserts and
savouries such as baklava and spinach pie. Today cooks are
limited only by their imagination as to how they can incorporate
fillo pastry into new and exciting dishes. It lends itself
well to creating pastry parcels and wraps in all different
shapes and sizes. From tiny bite size finger food nibbles
of fillo pastry wrapped around a savoury cheese, herb and
black olive mixture to larger creations containing a seafood
mix of prawns and shellfish or even spiced minced lamb. Its
crunchy light texture contrasts well with soft, moist fillings
of poached salmon, chicken or the traditional spinach and
cheese.
