A NOTE ON MEASUREMENTS
We work with chefs from all around the world, which is why we include both imperial (cups/ounces) and metric (grams) measurements. To achieve best results, we highly recommend that you utilize a kitchen scale and follow the metric measurements when possible.
PREPARATION
DAY 1
Mix the four, sugar, salt in a large bowl. Warm the milk in a sauce pan or in the microwave. Melt the dry
yeast in a third of a cup of your milk. Once melted, add the milk and yeast to the large bowl. Melt the
butter in a sauce pan and also add to the large bowl. Mix with a mixer or by hand and knead for about
5 minutes. Let let the dough rest in the fridge, covered by a plastic wrap.
Shape your 300g tourage butter into a fat square and place in the fridge.
DAY 2
Bring your milk to boil in a sauce pan with a teaspoon of sugar. In a bowl, mix the remainder of the
sugar, cornstarch and one yolk. Add the boiling milk to the bowl and mix all together. Once mixed,
pour it back to the sauce pan and let dry until obtaining the custard.
Work your dough with a rolling pin to create a rectangle that’s about 0.20 inch (1/2 a centimeter)
thick, double the length of the tourage you made the day before (butter sheet) and just 2 inches wider
than the tourage.
Start folding the dough with the butter. Do this twice and place the dough in the fridge for 3-4 minutes
every time you make a fold.
Shape the croissants into a big rectangle. Leave to rise for at least 30 minutes at 30-35 ° C
Brush your croissants with a compost of egg, one spoon of heavy cream (optional) and a pinch of salt.
Bake the croissants 15-25 minutes at 360F / 180 C. Enjoy!
