Goya Discos Dough for Turnovers
What it is
Goya Discos Dough for Turnovers is a pre-made pastry dough designed for creating small, filled pastries. It comes in round discs, making it convenient for folding over fillings. This dough is typically made from flour, water, and fat, creating a flaky and tender crust when baked. It offers a quick solution for homemade turnovers without the need to prepare dough from scratch.
How people cook with it
These dough discs are perfect for a variety of sweet and savory turnovers. They are a versatile base for many different flavor combinations.
- Sweet fruit turnovers
- Savory meat turnovers
- Cheese-filled pastries
- Dessert empanadas
To use Goya Discos Dough, simply remove the discs from their packaging. Allow them to thaw slightly if frozen, making them pliable. Place your desired filling in the center of one disc. Moisten the edges of the dough with water or egg wash, then fold the disc in half to create a semi-circle, pressing the edges firmly to seal. Crimp the edges with a fork or by hand. Bake until golden brown and cooked through. They can be fried or baked.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to other pastry doughs like puff pastry or pie crust, Goya Discos are specifically shaped and sized for individual turnovers. They are typically thinner and designed to be folded, offering a different texture and ease of use for this particular application.

Unused dough discs should be kept refrigerated and tightly wrapped to prevent drying out. If frozen, store them in the freezer. Thaw in the refrigerator before use. Ensure the packaging is sealed to maintain freshness and prevent freezer burn.
