DID YOU
KNOW...
The Feast of the Seven Fishes is
an Italian-American Christmas
Eve tradition for a meat-free
meal featuring — you guessed
it! — seven types of seafood. The
pesce varies, but cod, calamari
and shellfish are popular.
HOW TO
THAW PUFF
PASTRY
Pop the package in the
fridge overnight. Oops,
you forgot? Set it on
the counter for about
40 minutes until it’s
pliable (but not long
enough for the butter to
melt, making it too soft).
TWIST
Spiral the ends of 1⁄2-in.-
wide strips in opposite
directions a few times.
STUFF
Place squares into muffin-
pan holes, then dollop
with jam and cheese.
