How to make croissant like a Pro Chef? (Secrets & Tricks REVEALED)

[@kopioteho]

Wow amazing! I love the fact that tips for people in hot weather are covered too. However, mine failed big time the moment when I place the butter slab & roll out, butter oozing out from the dough. I quickly put in the freezer for an hour, still same for a few times Gosh I'm so tired. 😭😭😭

Your croissant recipe is absolutely amazing. My husband is French and said this is by far the best croissant he has ever had. Thank you for sharing your technique and recipe, they have been so extremely helpful. I have a question for you regarding proofing (the only part I seem to struggle with) - when you proof your croissants, what type of plastic are you covering them with?

[@techielopez7678]

Always wondered if cutting would lead to lopsided ends. Your balancing tip answered this! Thank you!

[@johnsprague4914]

Your dough handling is excellent. I notice your use a French fold for the butter envelope, then a book turn, and a letter turn for 25 layers. I have read 55 is traditional (3 letter turns). But recently read that far fewer turns yields a superior oven spring and interior holes. I happened to do this Monday just as you did (book/letter and stop) and I got a much better result. Though, your interior was superior to mine. I think I under proofed by about 45 minutes.

[@doodeevideo6521]

You understanding correctly. If we want It to spring and crispy, we should not do that much turns. Many of Thai people here love the honey comb so we don’t turns much.

[@Esteramisu57]

Is T45 cake flour most of the croissants recipe will include a high protein flour like bread flour please clarify

[@vovkabondarev7416]

So, if I'm using a homemade mixer, I need to use only T45 or bread flour. T45 is about 10% protein content, while bread flour is more like 13%. It starts with suggesting to use high protein flour (11%-14%), and that does not cover T45. I get that it's not only about the protein content, but what is wrong with T55 in that case? Also, T45 and bread flour seems to be a big jump. Any clarifications on the choice?

[@cruessli]

there is ton of information in the flour that arent stated in T45 or T55 or T60. It s just saying how thin the flour has been prepared. You can find the W sometimes, that mean how your flour is resistant. there is the capacity of absorption of your flour (i live in colombia and that s an issue that i have). All of this to say, T45 and T55 isnt very relevant ! So you can find T45 with 13% protein, or t55 with 8 or 12. Just depend of the quality you can get and the price you want to put. if you want to be consistent, gotta try different things, and see how your dough will evolve. No need to go to the end , you can see it after the dough is finished. (if failed, just add 200g of butter and make brioche to save the dough ! )

What are the ideal temperatures for during the lamination of the dough and before you lock the butter in, if you do know. Also, why do you advise keeping the spine side of the dough on the right side of you? What does that do? Thanks for the recipe :)

[@doodeevideo6521]

I don’t measure the exact temperature but what I focus on is the TEXTURE of the dough “not too hard and not too soft” is the best way you can work with. About the spine , if we fold 2 times it would be no problem but if you wanna fold one more time you can know that it’s the correct side.

Hi Chef can we use all purpose flour or T55 too ? So if T55 do we hand knead till 70% gluten if home mixer not suitable for AP of T55 flour?

Actually I recommend making 500g flour recipe, Small portion may takes a lot of kneading time because the dough is not touching the hook and bowl properly. You CAN SKIP the egg yolk by adding milk or water ( 1 yolk takes about 15 g )🤟🏻

Why croissant inside like a bread

[@vision19681]

Its because the yeast. So croissant probably has bready texture. But still layered. If it had full bread texture, maybe the butter melted to dough. It could caused by warm temperature where you work, or you rolling it too hard, especially when the dough is shrinking. It's why the dough needs to rest in fridge between the folding.
