How I make it

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. Beat the egg with the water. In a separate bowl, mix the cheese with the herbs.

  3. On a floured surface, lightly roll the pastry into a 14 by 10 inch (35 by 25 cm) rectangle.

  4. Cut the pastry in half lengthwise and brush both halves with the egg wash.

  5. Sprinkle the cheese mixture over one half and lay the other half on top, egg side down. Run a rolling pin over it to seal the layers together.

  6. Cut crosswise into 28 strips about ½ inch (1 cm) wide and twist each one.

  7. Arrange on a baking sheet with space between them and press the ends of each twist onto the sheet.

  8. Brush with the egg wash and bake for 10 minutes.

What I've learned

  • I press the ends onto the sheet so the twists don't unwind while baking.
