If prepared right delicious
It looks so good!
Plastic bag instead of bowl 😮
I don't know how I've never used bags for the flour and breadcrumbs.. genius
Less dishes! I just feel the egg with worth having in a bowl so I can get better coverage
That looks really cool. On my list for next year
I have a question can I use butter oil
@@ArtikM it looks like butter oil goes completely solid, so I’m going to say no. I don’t think it would work
With some actual seasoning this chicken actually seems like it could be fire! Video saved for later!
ooooh I WILL TRY THISS
Deeelish❤
My kind of meal
Yes.
I bet that jawn was BUSSIN in ya mouth
Too much gluten development = shrinking dough Overworking the dough causes excessive gluten formation, leading to a tough texture that pulls back during baking, resulting in shrinkage. Too cold dough = shrinking dough Chilled dough can cause the fat and moisture to behave poorly in the oven. If the dough is too cold, the crystalline structures in fat and water evaporate, making the dough contract. Non-rested dough = shrinking dough If the dough isn't allowed to rest, the gluten remains tense. When baked, this tension pulls the dough inwards, causing shrinkage. Science: Fat, starch, and protein can all crystallize when cooled. When subjected to drastic temperature changes during baking, this crystalline structure can destabilize. The fat and water molecules evaporate, loosening the dough's structure and causing shrinkage. Additionally, gluten, being a stretchy protein, can revert to its original, tighter form when overworked or under-rested, further contributing to shrinkage.
It was probably the non-rested part
definitely need super cold butter.
You need to keep your butter as cold as possible and refrigerate between turns
I would recommand claire saffitz recepe as zshe explains the logic behind every step and why it should be done that way everthing you do makes more sense and less intimidating, croissants are hard but they are worth itt keep on going ❤
Thanks everyone! Does anyone have concerns about desired dough temperature or other tricks for the rise? Obviously I did need to fridge it during lamination, but I swear this rise is killing me and I think was my biggest problem the last 2 times I tried.
If I had to guess your butter and dough being too warm is messing up your rise by the butter mixing into the dough and altering the structure. Actually I'm certain that's your issue. Part of why croissants get so much rise is that the butter between the layers traps air/steam and causes it to rise. With your butter warm and mixing into the dough you don't end up with defined layers between each, just buttery dough. But yeah, once you solve the lamination you'll get a good rise.
should have kerrygold
tasty fakes so much shit that where you went wrong
They look definitely worth eating
Looks bomb though!
Perhaps look at Martha Stewart’s recipe? She’s a perfectionist, so she might have some secrets to making flaky croissants.
Hey, considering the circumstances other people have mentioned, I think it's decent attempt, I've had worse looking croissants for sure. Wish you good luck!
Gotta keep it cold the whole time. I worked at a bakery that didn’t have the space to put it in the fridge though and people seemed to like it even though it was basically just buttery bread. But to get nice flakey croissants, your butter needs to be stretched cold so it becomes elasticy
I felt that in my soul😂😂❤
I think the butter and dough needed to go back in the fridge after the first fold., then again a few folds later.
I'm my baking experience that was all too warm. Your butter started melting into the dough. Is they are both nice and cold or shouldn't so that as much
You're good! Okra is hella slimy, but if you want to avoid slime, try deep frying it or sauteing--high heat, VERY quickly. Water is your enemy when it comes to okra, so avoid it as much as possible. The more you cook, the more slime. Try your fry here without blanching first--when they turn bright green and are knife tip tender, you're good. Buuuut, if you're ever looking to thicken soup or stews and add some extra nutrition? Okra is your guy--it'll cook down to nothingness and leave you with a silky smooth whatever it is you're making (think like how bones will release gelatin and thicken whatever it's in).
First thing is using tastys recipes. They missed a few steps and the pinching the dough 😢
I should have moved on when I saw the recipe was volumetric
@my.culinary.education sometimes you have to learn from the mistakes we make. The next recipe you find will be a great one and you recipe will turn out great.
You need to make sure that your butter and dough when folding and rolling are very very cold. Which means fold it once and roll it out , fold it and put it in the fridge. Give it another 10 or 15 minutes to cool off before doing another one or two folds put it back in the fridge. I'm not kidding. Not kidding in the least. This is how millefeuille Is also created. You lose your definition of all those layers when the butter begins to incorporate into the dough instead of being a separate layer from it. Basically you want to keep the dough and the butter cold enough that they never get blended together at all until it melts in the oven. I hope that helps. Sincerely.
Noted, you cannot skip the fridge and all the resting
@@my.culinary.education Nope, you really can't skip it! It helps to think of it like this: in a laminated dough, all the layers you make while folding are then realised when the butter heats up and steams during the baking process--the butter evaporates and leaves behind all the holes and layers! The colder the butter, the more effective your oven's heat will be :)
I’d use mor flour on your work surface, but you can’t go overboard or the layers won’t rise properly. Croissants are one of the hardest breads to bake consistently, and those don’t look bad. Just need more practice. I like to make a chocolate crème and fill my “failures” with it. My kids eat a surprising number of chocolate croissants…😂😂
I like this for the failures idea lol
Hello! I'd like to try to offer some help. I think one place to start would be to see if you had enough gluten development in your dough. Gluten makes dough strong and stretchy. Looking at the dough in the video, it doesn't seem to have developed enough from kneading. it also appears a little bit dry. Are you measuring your flour by weight, or by volume? On your booklet, Same temp butter and dough is definitely right. I prefer a book fold, where the dough is twice the length to the butter block, I then pinch the edges to "lock" in the booklet and roll it out to about 1/4" thick. I then do a tri-fold, and pop it back in the fridge to cool down, often around 45 minutes. then roll out twice more until i've gotten my desired layers. I think maybe your work surface may also have needed more flour. a lot of people say excess flour makes your dough drier. I just brush off my booklet before popping it back in the fridge. On time, croissants are a labor of love. it really does take a while between rolling out your first layers and final proofing before they make it to the oven. You could probably finish your booklet in 8 hours and keep it in the fridge up to two days before you'd want to roll out and cut your croissants. On proofing, it also takes a while to proof. the cross section shows gummy centers, which says to me that the dough could've proofed longer. your "poorly leavened bread" is the result of the butter layers tearing. You'll get better at it the more you make croissants. That's what i can recall from pastry school. I don't make much bread at my current job. I saw some of your other videos your dishes look very yummy!
You know what, I think I rightfully got burned by using a volumetric recipe! I forgot the tasty one was. I just liked that I had a video to watch along with the steps. The video made to sound like you actually didn’t want a lot of gluten in this recipe so I felt the rough dough was “good” but the volumetric measurements def made it dry I agree. I like the idea that I could keep it in the fridge a few days, maybe that’s the move anyway for flavor. I always struggled with proofing these. I feel like no matter how long they go (and I let my second batch just go and extra 3 hrs bc it was already a wash) they just don’t puff up. The base rough pastry didn’t puff up like in the video either. Do croissant recipes usually have a bunch of dough and water temperature measurements?
@ there are bread people and there are “bread people” In pastry school, we kept our water to 85F, mostly so everyone could be consistent. Any temp over 110f will start to kill the yeast. In pastry, you typically dont want a lot of gluten development because that makes for a tender crumb (like cakes and biscuits). But for breads you definitely want a strong gluten matrix. People often cite the “window pane test” to see if your dough will have enough gluten. Alternatively, letting the dough rest overnight would also help develop gluten. Thats how a lot of “no knead” recipes work. On proofing. It really takes a lot of guess and check before you start to know for sure what proofed, underproofed, or over proofed looks like. It is doubly hard if you are unsure if you made your dough correctly to begin. On how long to proof. Check your yeast. I always use instant yeast, active yeast needs double the amount of yeast to work the same. But if the yeast is dead its unlikely to see a large amount of volume. Alternatively, it could be a cold kitchen. In school we would use a covered baking rack with a large pot of boiling water at the bottom to make a proofing oven.At home i usually just keep my boules in the microwave. Butter will tend to melt out beyond room temp, so three hours doesnt actually seem that bad if it is in a cold room. If you can shake the pan and the dough “jiggles” thats a good sign of proofing. The finished product should feel light for its size. Laminated doughs are usually considered the hardest thing to learn to do right. Once you get the hang of croissant dough, danish and puff pastry are the same method with different levels of folding.
@ also, maybe consider using cheaper butter. It makes botching a batch less painful. You would have to “beat” the butter with the back of your rolling pin to make it smooth and pliable, but in my opinion most people wouldnt tell the taste between the two unless they were actively looking for it
Use cold butter and 3 folds back to the fridge 6 times ....but croissants can be hard ....you will get it
Dang you really need the fridge that much? The recipe kinda made it sound like it didn’t need to have all that fridge and resting time to get a decent product. How long do you think all those folds and tests should take?
@my.culinary.education having not made croissants, but with plenty of experience in other breads, this was my guess. The dough looks too loose by the end of rolling. The reason I havent tried croissants is because im too impatient for all that😅
@my.culinary.education i remember having to make croissants in a walk in because it was too warm and too much time to go back and forth from the kitchen
It's definitely the temperature of the dough and butter. Your butter got too warm and that's how it broke through
yep folding is a 2 day operation with rests in the fridge beetwen each (doesn t mean more work just spaced work)
Star anus? You have to fix that pronunciation
my dumb ass thought its coke 💀
Try the chili oil on some over easy eggs trust me
That looks so good❤
Sounds good. I used butter in a covered pan. Then for me they were edible. But the cheese would put them over the top that way.
DOO-ka
we Asian eat crouching tiger, hidden dragon, head butting goat steak
Pigs feet
That looks amazinggg😵😵
Hi I’m a chef! Firstly I enjoyed your video! Just a few things to improve your skills if you’d like. 🐅when cutting a steak keep the uncut piece on your non dominant side - for example, if you are right handed keep the steak on your left. 🐅if you’re mortar and pestle isn’t big enough, use your knife, it won’t be exactly the same but it will be similar. Slice or chop roughly, then lay the knife flat on the ingredient and press down to crush it, chop again and crush until you reach your desired texture. 🐅 using the oven is a good way to cook a thick cut of meat, but if you’d like to do it in the stove top cook one side and when you start to see blood rising onto the surface flip it, cook for 1 - 2 minutes depending on your thickness and then rest for half to the full amount of time you cooked for (e.g. you cook for 5 minutes total, rest for minimum 2.5 minutes to 5 minutes) Otherwise it’s good to see someone experimenting.
Never cut your steak like that
looks amazing how about you try making baklava
Looks good
Good vid. Maybe should have shown the meat a little better, even if you think it's over. Ramen, a good egg dish, pork belly...
Mmmm looks tasty nice work 😋
