Categories: Pastry, Cheese, Herbs
Yield: 6 Servings
1/2 c Grated Manchego cheese
1/2 ts Dried oregano; crushed
1/4 ts Garlic powder
1 Sheet frozen puff pastry;
- thawed
1 lg Egg
1 tb Water
Set oven @ 400ºF/205ºC.
In a small bowl combine cheese, oregano, and garlic
powder. Set aside.
On a lightly floured surface, roll pastry sheet into a
14" x 12" rectangle. Cut rectangle in half crosswise to
form two 12" x 7" rectangles. In a small bowl whisk
together egg and the water. Brush both pastry rectangles
lightly with egg mixture.
Sprinkle cheese mixture over one of the pastry
rectangles. Place the other pastry rectangle, brushed
side down, on top of the cheese mixture. Using your
fingers, firmly press rectangles together, forcing out
air pockets and sealing edges. Brush top with egg
mixture.

ungreased baking sheets. Holding both ends of a strip,
twist strip. Place on ungreased baking sheet, pressing
ends into baking sheet to secure. Repeat with the
remaining strips. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until
golden and crisp. Transfer to a wire rack; cool. (To

Arrange cooled baked straws in a single layer in a
freezer container; cover. Freeze for up to 1 month. To
