Is it risky to use rough puff pastry which has been expired a month ago but was preserved in freezer and not in refrigerator?

It is better to be safe than sorry, throw it out.

If it was stored all that time in the freezer, it would not be a food safety issue. But the dough might have dried out or any fats may have become rancid. Since the end result might not be what you expect, you'll have to decide whether or not it is worthwhile using.

How do you make the German pastry the dauphin noodle?

Found a recipe for Dampfnudeln in the Joy of Cooking that uses a yeast dough rolled into balls and put into a Dutch oven with butter and milk in the bottom and baked at 275 for 1 1/2 hours. You serve it with a meat course with lots of gravy. The dessert version uses syrup, fruit juice or preserves instead of the milk and butter. A friend of mine remembered his mom making these when he was a kid. Took us awhile to find this recipe since we did not know how to spell it.

How do you make vegan pastry?

You could try making the regular dough, and instead on actual eggs, put in an egg substitue. Otherwise, look up a recipe on line or in a cook book for people who have severe allergies. Often, these recipes will contian something for people who have egg allergies and other options that you can use in place of it.

As an addendum to what someone else wrote above, be aware that "egg substitute" such as that sold in cartons in the supermarket are made of real eggs, usually marketed as a replacement for whole eggs for lower cholesterol diets. These egg replacers are NOT free of egg protein and are not safe for egg allergy.

Ground flaxseed can be used in place of egg in many baking recipes such as quick breads like pumkpin or banana bread or muffins, at a ratio of 1 tsp of ground flaxseed to 3 tsp of water per egg replaced.

However I have not tried that with pastries that require egg for the texture, such as choux paste and Scandinavian pastry.

At this time I haven't discovered a way to make an eggless flaky Scandinavian pastry or Danish, but if someone does know, please share.

Hot soapy water --- or lemon juice with salt in it --- or baking soda & water.

Wooden cutting boards can bare many germs as it is a porous surface, and should be bleached directly after use especially if used for meat, poultry etc. Bleaching can be done by adding 1/4 cup of bleach to a sink full of wash water, then rinsed thoroughly. It can also be done by using a spray bottle of 1 part bleach, 3 parts water, to spray the surface of the board, then wash.
