How to use baking beads?

Begin by preparing your pastry dough according to your recipe. Once rolled out and placed in the baking tin, gently press it into the corners and edges. Next, line the pastry with parchment paper or aluminum foil, ensuring it covers the entire surface and edges. Then, pour the baking beads evenly onto the lined pastry, filling it to the brim. The beads will weigh down the pastry, preventing it from puffing up during baking. After blind baking, carefully remove the beads to reveal a perfectly crisp and golden crust ready for your delicious fillings.
