Whats up fellas? Take a look at my second attempt at croissant making, this time I put a bit more flour in the dough as my first time dough was impossibly sticky. I also did a more throurough knead and actually cut them the correct size this time. (The weird looking ones are the edge pieces that come out fucked up)
How do you like em?

Share croissant recipes, pics and tips.

The lamination looks good, but the inside didn't form the honeycomb pattern which is the hallmark of a truly well-made croissant. But the exterior looks great, better than the croissants I've made. If you want to branch out a bit try making pain au chocolat, pain au raisin and kougin-amann which are all croissant dough with some differences.

>> No.13997395

Any truth to pastry dough being a pain in the ass? Folded 10,000 like the Japanese dough?

>> No.13997515

>>13997372
How do you achieve said honeycomb pattern? I think I couldve proof mine more since I was kind of in a rush the day I baked them.
Ill try all those things, thanks for the suggestion.

>>13997395
Folds reach diminishing returns or even worsening results, enough folds and you end up with a shitty cake

>> No.13997770

Maybe ajust the cooking time and temp because the inside doesnt look thorougly cooked yet. Though the outside look great already.

Looks good but they lack "horns" on both sides and that's usually the best part of a good croissant, I'm French btw

I made some croissants back in January. I need to work on shaping/forming them, because they came unfolded during proofing and baking but tasted great otherwise.

>> No.13999438

I get them from Costco. I like it when they're a little crusty and stale, dipped in milk.
