4Chan friends, how do you make good croissants?
My croissants are kinda mid and not very alveolated

Patience and several tries.

The lamination process is where everything can go wrong, be sure to refrigerate the dough each time you make a fold.

The secret is to work on it over and over until you're really good at it because everyone knows that mastering cwohaunts is difficult

You also need to develop a strong gluten network in the initial phase of kneading the dough, if you have a robot it will be piss easy.
