Hello Lindsey,
Can I use strong white bread flour to make flaky pastry?
If i can, how much flour, butter water to make 750g of pastry?

Thank you.

Hello,

Yes, you can make flaky pastry with strong flour.

I expect double Delia’s recipe that uses 110g flour will make about 750g of pastry.

Best wishes

Lindsey
