Dutch Cheese Straws (Kaasstengels)
"This recipe for kaasstengels (translates as 'cheese stems') couldn't be easier to make and is ideal for those leftover bits of puff pastry that always seem to clog up the freezer. Because this is typically something one makes with leftover pastry, I've not included exact amounts in this recipe. I've kept it pretty basic, with only cheese and salt & pepper, but there are plenty of ideas in the Tips section if you want to posh it up...."
