Húdié sū is the Chinese version of this cookie which literally translates to butterfly pastries. In Germany, they are dearly called ‘pig’s ears’, maybe because they appear to be delightfully resembling a piglet’s floppy ears. In India, French palmiers are better known as French hearts.
These cookies are often available at local tea stalls in India. With a dip of this cookie in the hot masala tea, it surely tastes heavenly! The best aspect of these cookies is that they can be made at home easily, but the laminated dough requires mastery over baking. For a hassle-free experience with these palmiers, visit Pastry Prime!
Interests in History!
Although its name suggests a French connection, the origin of the same is quite uncertain. They were likely invented in the 19th century, arguably in Austria. Historians find an association with Middle Eastern recipes like phyllo resembling a laminated dough.
