How soon should I bake the Filo after assembling a recipe?
If the filling or filling ingredients used are cold and relatively dry and firm the small or large pastries may be assembled beforehand and kept refrigerated or even frozen for up to a day before baking. This method is only suitable for firm cold fillings.
If soft fillings such as custard, white sauce-based fillings or hot mixtures are used, products should be baked soon after filling.
Can I deviate from a recipe when using Filo?
It’s easy to adjust the filo and filling required from one recipe to make different shapes and sizes. For example a strudel can be made into a large roll or small rolls.
Should Filo be microwaved?
Filo pastry is not the best thing to microwave or reheat – it harms the texture of the pastry and should mostly not be used.
Exceptions are when a large pie needs to be partly defrosted and is then reheated in a preheated oven or when a small individual pastry needs to be warmed very slightly to eat when in a hurry, soon after heating.
