About McDONALD'S, English Muffin
Pastry is a broad family of baked goods built on a dough of flour, fat, and liquid, prized for the tender, flaky, or crisp textures the fat creates as it separates layers of dough. The main types each behave differently: sturdy shortcrust for pies and tarts, airy laminated puff pastry for turnovers and vol-au-vents, buttery layered dough for croissants and Danishes, light choux for eclairs and cream puffs, and paper-thin filo for baklava and strudel.
Rich in refined carbohydrate and fat, pastries are an indulgent treat rather than an everyday staple, with calories driven largely by their butter or shortening. They form the foundation of both sweet and savory cooking, cradling fruit fillings, custards, meats, and cheeses. Success depends on keeping the fat cold and handling the dough gently. Store baked pastries in an airtight container, and freeze raw pastry dough to keep it fresh for weeks.
