Визначення та Значення "lattice pastry"

What is "lattice pastry"?

Lattice pastry is a decorative technique used in pastry-making, where strips of pastry dough are woven together to create a lattice pattern on top of a pie or tart. The lattice pattern is created by rolling out strips of dough and laying them in a criss-cross pattern over the filling, weaving them over and under each other to create a lattice effect. The strips of dough can be plain or flavored with spices or herbs to add extra flavor to the pastry. Lattice pastry is popular for fruit pies, such as apple or cherry, but can also be used for savory pies and tarts. The lattice pattern not only adds a decorative touch to the pastry, but also allows the filling to peek through, creating a beautiful and appetizing presentation. It is a classic and elegant technique that requires a bit of skill and practice.
