Step 1/3

Place the mozzarellas in the center of a dish, arrange the bay leaf and the thyme around the cheese. Heat the thyme, the bay leaf, put a lid on top to smoke the mozzarellas. Mix the mozzarella, heavy cream, salt and pepper using a manual chopper. Place the mixture in a dish, add a drizzle of olive oil, pepper and set aside.

Step 2/3

Seal the end of 2 rectangular puff pastries. Place the puff pastry on the work surface, spread the pesto, place the Parma ham and roll the dough on itself to form a roll. Cut the dough into 6 rolls and flatten the center of each roll using a skewer. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, forming a circle. Brush the egg yolk on the puff pastry rolls and bake for 25 minutes at 350°F.
