kornetti

Kornetti, also known as korjetti, is a type of pastry that originated in Eastern Europe, particularly in Hungary and Czech Republic. It is a flaky, layered pastry typically filled with a sweet or savory filling.

The dough used for kornetti is similar to puff pastry, made from a mixture of flour, fat, and water. The layers of dough are often rolled and folded to create a flaky texture, similar to croissants. Before baking, the kornetti is often topped with a glaze or a sweet topping, such as icing or chopped nuts.

In Hungary, kornetti is often filled with jam and cream, similar to a traditional strudel. In Czech Republic, the filling may be cheese or fruit, similar to a filled napoleon. The pastry is then baked until golden brown and served as a snack or dessert.

Kornetti is a popular pastry in many Eastern European countries, and its popularity has spread to other parts of the world. The pastry is often associated with special occasions, such as weddings and holidays.

The name "kornetti" is derived from the Hungarian word for " creams", which refers to the traditional filling of the pastry. The kornetti has a long history, dating back to the 18th century when it was first created in Hungary. Over time, the pastry has evolved and spread to other parts of the world, where it is enjoyed in various forms.
