Beurrage is the butter block that is used in the production of puff pastry. It is also referred to as the "roll-in fat" because it is rolled between the layer of the detrempe (dough part of puff pastry). The steam released from the beurrage during the baking process is what causes the natural leavening effects and multiple layers in puff pastry.

I think they generally make the turnover a turnover and they also make the filling all warm plus they taste better with the pastry.
1. The freshness and quality of the ingredients. Good, fresh, quality ingredients make it better. 2. The number of layers of butter and flour in the puff pastry, i.e. the quality and expertise of the production of the puff pastry. The more layers of fat and flour, the more puffing, or expansion, in the puff pastry. 3. Proper cooking technique. If you undercook it, it won't puff properly and it certainly won't taste right. If you overcook it, it may have a burnt taste, the dough may toughen, it won't be good.
The best way to make a delicious and flaky puff pastry pie crust is to use cold butter, handle the dough gently, and allow it to rest in the refrigerator before baking.
Puff pastry involves layering butter into a shortcrust pastry, then completing a process of folding and rolling and folding again, in order to obtain many thin layers of butter spread within thin layers of pastry. When the pastry cooks, the fat in the butter keeps the layers separate, while the water content expands into steam and forces the layer apart. In a rough puff pastry, chunks of butter in mixed onto the pastry as it is made, and the pastry mix needs only be rolled once. with the lumps of butter within the pastry, the same effect happens, but over a small localised areas. The effect is the same, but the rough puff doesn't rise quite as much, and finishes with a rough texture. It is, of course, much quicker to make. Use it when the pastry will not be on show, such as for the base of tarts and the like.
