Can you use the Spinach Artichoke filling as a dip? Yes, you can use the Spinach Artichoke filling as a dip. I would recommend mixing the filling and placing it in a 9x9 pan. Sprinkle the dip with mozzarella cheese and bake at 350 until the cheese is melted. Serve with pita crackers.
What is Phyllo Dough? Phyllo Dough is a light and thin pastry dough made with oil. It is different from a puff pastry. Puff pastry is made with butter.
Can you freeze Spinach Artichoke Rolls? I do not recommend freezing the actual phyllo dough rolls stuffed with the Spinach Artichoke Dip. However, you could freeze the spinach artichoke filling and then stuff into thawed phyllo dough.
Help! My spinach is frozen! If your spinach did not completely dethaw in the refrigerator, remove spinach from packaging and place in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds. Remove and check for frozen spots. If not completely unfrozen, microwave again at 10 second increments. Once unfrozen, follow instructions for how to remove all excess water.
Phyllo Dough tips. Don't be intimidated by working with phyllo dough. My biggest tip is to the dethaw the phyllo dough in the refrigerator overnight. Keep the phyllo dough in the refrigerator until you are ready to work with it. If the dough is out for an extended period of time, place a damp paper towel over the dough to keep some moisture. And if your dough tears, do not worry! When eating the dough, you will not notice the tear and it will have no impact on how the dough tastes!
Let's make the Spinach Artichoke Rolls crispier! If you want to make your rolls crispier, use more of the phyllo dough. Instead of cutting the dough in half, do not cut in half. Add your filling and roll! These rolls will require additional bake time but with double the dough will have more crisp and crunch!
