How to Make Croissant Recipe
- Prepare the Dough:
- Mix flour, sugar, salt, and yeast in a deep bowl.
- Gradually add water, kneading the dough.
- Knead the dough until elastic, then refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Prepare the Butter for Laminating:
- Soften the butter and roll it between two sheets of parchment into a rectangle. Place in the freezer for 15 minutes.
- Laminating the Dough:
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle, place the butter on it, and fold the dough in half.
- Roll it out again and fold it into 3 layers. Repeat this process 3 times, allowing the dough to rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes each time.
- Shaping the Croissants:
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle about 5 mm thick.
- Cut the dough into triangles and roll them into the shape of croissants.
- Proofing and Baking:
- Place the croissants in a warm place for 1-2 hours to rise.
- Mix the egg yolk with milk and brush the croissants.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (392°F) for about 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
- Serving:
- Serve the croissants hot, sprinkled with sugar if desired.
Notes:
- The butter for laminating should be of good quality, as it gives the croissants their characteristic flavor and texture.
- Baking time may vary depending on the oven, so keep an eye on the croissants to prevent over-baking.
Enjoy your meal!
