This invention relates to a pastry. The invention is directed particularly, but not necessarily solely toward a filo pastry.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Pastry products are generally used as a base for covering pies, tarts and the like. Pastry 5 or baked paste is usually made up of a dough of flavour, fat or shortening, and water. Sometimes egg yolk is also used.
Pastry has a high fat content which can be in the range of 30% to 40%. However, some thin pastries have a much lower fat content. Thin pastries such as flaky or puff pastries which are designed to enlarge or puff and/or go brown in cooking can also have a high fat content. The flaky or puff pastries have an extra percentage of fat or oil to create the puff which in turn creates the high fat content.
However, another thin pastry which is used in Mediterranean countries such as Greece for the production of baklava or a spinach pie is called filo pastry. This pastry is made up of flour, oil and water and has a very low fat content. In use, people buy the filo 15 pastry in packets of several sheet layers. They are normally stored in the fridge rather than the freezer because of the problem of thawing very thin sheets. The thin sheets have to be separated when cooking which is very difficult to achieve.
When cooking, each layer has to be brushed with an oil, such as a vegetable oil or melted butter before it is baked. This oil enables the sheets to be separated and results in the familiar texture and taste of filo pastry when it is baked. When it is baked, this enables the pastry to puff a little and even to go brown. This process however is labour intensive and requires very delicate handling and patience. These problems tend to discourage its use even though filo has an extremely low fat content.
When making filo or any thin pastry, traditionally flour and water are mixed together to 25 form a dough which is then compressed and or stretched by throwing up into the air, followed by shaping or kneading. Often salt to assist in flavour and oil for workability, are added. This method has remained unchanged. It is well known that adding too much oil or fat during mixing for both flavour, browning and workability, can cs.doc/MM/da

drastically effect or reduce stretchability or workability to cause breaking etc. Also the melting point of most fats makes them unsuitable in anything other than very small quantities during any processing with or without heating. Therefore after making the thin pastry, brushing on fat or butter, has been found to be the only way of creating the 5 browning and flavouring of the pastry and workability needed during handling.
OBJECT OF THE INVENTION
It is the object of the present invention to provide an improved pastry which will obviate or minimize the aforementioned problems in a simple yet effective manner or which will at least provide the public with a useful choice.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Preferred forms of the invention will now be described with reference to the 5 accompanying drawings in which:
Figure 1 shows a cross section of a pastry layer of the invention.
Figure 2 shows a cross section of a pastry layer of a second embodiment of the invention.
Figure 3 shows a cross section of pastry mix with powder therein.
Figure 4 shows a cross sectional view of a pastry having powder as an outer layer and within the pastry mix.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
In the present invention as shown in examples of figures 1 and 2, at least one pastry layer 1 may be part of a package of pastry layers. A powder 2 is shown in figure 1 and 15 2 as applied to the outside of each layer 1. Other alternatives for the addition of the powder are also disclosed. This can be seen in figures 3 and 4 whereby the powder is added to the pastry or dough mixture at any desired point. Powder can be applied in discreet masses. The layer of the pastry can be packaged together for sale to the consumer. The amount of powder to be added can be adjusted to suit particular 20 workability, cohesiveness or elasticity and/or taste and browning look required.
The pastry layers are very thin sheet like layers which traditionally can be called a filo pastry which is used in many Greek dishes. Filo pastry has a very low fat content when compared to the well known thick pastries used in pies and the like.
The powder can be any powder that can be applied to a pastry layer so that the 25 separation between the layers is achieved. Cohesiveness or elasticity and or workability cs.doc/MM/da

is directly influenced by the addition of the powder. Also the inclusion of the powder means that manoeuvrability and re-placement in cooking is greatly enhanced. Preferably the powder is a vegetable fat or bread-fat but it can also be a milk powder, an egg powder or a butter powder or it could even be a combination of any of these. These 5 fat powders can have a much higher melting point than traditional fats e.g. 60 degrees. This means that they will not melt at room temperature and will not exhibit normal fat properties and therefore will enhance workability, handlibility, cohesiveness and elasticity of the pastry thereby enabling the thinness of the pastry to be created and not break.
Traditionally a dry mix of flour is mixed with water to form the dough or wet mix. Salt can be added to the water mix. After forming the dough, one then feeds it into an extruder which partially forms the sheet or very thin layer. This is then fed by conveyor to at least one set of rollers to form the final pastry thickness. Heaters can be used at any point in the process to assist in workability and powder adhesion.
After production of the filo or thin pastry or purchase of filo depending on how you source the filo, at least one layer can be placed on a table such that a powder can be dropped or sprayed thereon. Alternatively the powder can be dropped on to the pastry layer when the pastry is on a conveyor or in the rollers. The powder then meltedly covers the layer. Another pastry layer is then placed over the last powdered layer and another powder drop is carried out. The layers may also be heated if not already warm enough to melt the powder. In another alternative, the package of pastry layers may be produced for use such that the ready made pack can be heated so enabling the powder to meltedly cover in between the pastry layers. This pack can be bought and taken home for instant use whereby the filo pastry layers can be easily separated and manoeuvred without the need to brush oil thereon.
Alternatively or in combination to adding the powder to the finished pastry layer(s), as shown in figure 3 one can also add powder 4 during the mixing process for example by adding to the dry mix and or to the wet mix 3. As shown in figure 4 this also can be done in combination with the adding by dropping on to the finished pastry layer 3 to 30 form at least one outer layer 5 method. The layer of powder need not be continuous but
cs.doc/MM/da

depending on what is necessary for suitable browning, flavour and or workability or cohesiveness or elasticitiy, the amount can be varied to suit.
To those skilled in the art to which the invention relates, many changes in construction and widely differing embodiments and applications of the invention will suggest 5 themselves without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims. The disclosures and the description herein are purely illustrative and are not intended to be in any sense limiting.
Throughout the description of this specification the word "comprise" and variations of that word, such as "comprising", are not intended to exclude other additives, 10 components, integers or steps.
