Hi guys, Ben here! Thanks for all the feedback and comments🙂 There will be more croissant and laminated pastry related video coming soon. Including a series of detailed theories on the croissant dough, the butter, the proofing, and temperature..etc. I'm back to work now so the upload time would be very random now. However, I do check comments every day and I try to answer all your questions as fast as possible, so feel free to ask any questions! Thanks again for all your supports! Keep claim and bake on!😁

Hi Benny, First of all thank you so much for your dedication in making every VDO. All are very impressive and make me feel like it is possible to make (am an amateur bake. Never dare to make Danish nor croissant). I have bean looking for a recipe to make this good looking danish for ages. Finally I found you! ❤️ I am confused about the bread type and would like to ask you a question. In 2 comments you said you use AP which I have (10.5% of protein). But in one comment you said use the flour using for croissant which….in others of your VDO it should contain 11-11.5-11.8 % of protein. So which one should I use? Thank you very much in advance.

I live in a tropical country and I want to try making laminated dough someday but I'm afraid of the butter melting into the dough during the final proofing. In any case, can the final proofing be done in the fridge or like do it in room temp but stick it in the fridge once you see the butter starting to melt?

[@Bennysbaked]

No not going to work!

[@maggietmy89]

Hi, at video 4.31, you said have to take out the butter slab 20 minutes before lamination, won’t the butter starting to melted? Because at my country about 10 minutes I take out, it start become soften.

[@royclassj3d]

Hi Chef Benny, May I ask you why the bulk fermentation at room temperature then put into the fridge? sometimes another chef mix the dough then puts it into the fridge directly.

[@Bennysbaked]

Bulk fermentation allows the dough to have enough yeast activity in the fridge, direct cold ferment recipes usually are large quantities.

Hi Ben! I first would like to thank you for your very detailed videos! Great music as well (: I will appreciate if you could kindly answer some of my questions below, so thank you in advance: 1. In your croissant video you brushed the pastry with milk, while here you are using egg wash- while I never tried brushing laminated dough with milk, doesn't it also risk gluing the layers together similarly to egg wash? if so, why risk using the egg wash? 2. Can you please explain why you are spraying the pastry with water every now and then (you didn't do it with the croissants)? 3. I saw your pinned comment on the book you recommended "the art of lamination by Jimmy griffin". Is this a reference to the book from which you learned this croissant recipe and techniques? I must also say that you are extremely skillful for a home baker (: Hope to be practicing a lot soon.Please keep safe and keep uploading more great videos (Subscribed!!)

[@Bennysbaked]

1. Only in that particular croissant recipe I feel like using milk, but as long as you don't eggwash the cut side, the pastry will still puff up just fine. 2. I do that with croissants as well, I spray water during lamination so the layers can stick better! (check my triple chocolate video) 3. Yes! Jimmy is my mentor! He's a world-class baker and I've learned so much from him throughout the years. Practice makes perfect I must say :) Thank you so much, I'm already working on the next one!

How long do you proof the danishes the second time?

[@Cholita.1979]

Hi Benny, I tried this and it tasted absolutely amazing! I love all the details you give and helped me make awesome croissants. I did have 2 problems: This pastry was leaking butter while baking. Could it bc because of under proofing? It proofed for about under an hour bc it was very puffed up. My other issue is still the color of pastry. Still comes out very pale. I do convection oven (with the fan). Do you recommend baking it longer or baking it at higher temp?

[@Bennysbaked]

Hi :) thank you! The answer to the first problem is either underproof or oven temperature too low(or both). Roll the pastry thinner and try 2 hours next time! And for oven temperature go 200c 19mins!
