This was a great lesson. Most other cooking/baking shows make laminated dough look so complicated: the butter MUST be chilled to x degrees, you MUST cut the butter into cubes EXACTLY x by x, you MUST fold and roll the dough umpteen times, etc. I'm a very occasional baker, and I watched this and thought, "Hey, y'know, I think I can do this?!!" The only hard part is the time spent waiting for the dough to go through multiple rises; nonetheless, it would be a perfect activity for a rainy weekend. Thanks, Martha!
Sounds like you are thinking of puff pastry which is very exacting in terms of the chilling etc. maybe not. Here is her recipe for puff pastry - had 729 layer of butter and dough. But either way, you have been encouraged and feel “I can do that”. And that’s the best part. Best wishes. th-cam.com/video/JArhz06weps/w-d-xo.html
Martha, you are a a timeless classic. I've watched your shows for most of my life. I can go months without watching your videos but when I'm ready to learn and impress I always come back to you. You've taught me how to continually improve in my kitchen and better take care of my home. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, skill and time with us all.
For so many years you have been my inspiration, I’ve learned the correct technique for everything, thank you for all the years of sharing your knowledge; whenever I need to learn something new done the correct way I always watch you. You never cease to amaze me!!!
I totally admire Martha Stewart's skills......the woman is a cooking genius! I spent years as a special needs teacher and have a decent amount of patience but not nearly enough to cook with that precision....go Martha!
I love that this croissant recipe doesn't use cold butter that you have to roll into one large square and place in between the dough layers. Martha's way of beating the butter until creamy, then spreading it onto the dough is awesome!
Lived in Alaska many decades ago - a tiny bakery opened in Anchorage, they made croissants of every kind. In -5°F folks would line the sidewalk for them! Yum!
Martha is very practical and smart she always adds tips in all recipes. To prepare "pate feuilletée" with butter, she added some floor to butter when mixing which is excellent it keeps butter sheets in shape.
Oh, I love how easy you made it with soft instead of cold butter. I’m lazy, so often made it with soft butter too, but used to mix it in the dough. Will try your method this weekend. I’m sure it would work great! Thank you very much. ❤
I’ve been a professional Pastry Chef for nearly 40 years and I do the same thing when l’m demonstrating recipes to my daughter-in-law‘s. I do it because they make me nervous, they point their iPhones at me instead of taking notes like l did. While I was attending Le Cordon Bleu (In Paris 1977-78), students were required to take notes. I sincerely doubt that Martha Stewart gets nervous (and forgets, like me) but with so many recipes in her repertoire it just makes sense. 😉😂 I have loved Martha Stewart since her first TV show aired on Sunday, 9/18/93.
Thank you Martha, my dough was sticky, it rose nicely. Can’t wait to try one. Thank you 😊 So much. I know that it takes you through a lot of steps. You work very hard to bring all these nice recipes to the people.
You describe it as a "complicated" process, but I've seen biscuit recipes that are exceedingly more difficult. Thank you for demystifying croissant making and for measuring ingredients by volume instead of weight!
Love, love, loving Martha. Always an inspiration and a hard worker. Ah that we could all work as hard to make the world a better place. Thank you Martha from the bottom of my heart. You are a joy.
I've never had a croissant that I liked. Their usually rubbery and they weren't flaky. I want these, they look so gooood. I want the chocolate one now! I love your show Martha Bakes. I've seen quite a few.
ive been watching you and snoop dog thanks for sharing your special croissnt your fan from philippines keep safe and God bless you and your family. 👍😍🙏🙏🙏
Guessing the dough would be good with mushroom filling. Trying to find my Craig Claiborne NY Times Cookbook with pastry filled with mushrooms hors d'oeuvre s.. It was an instant hit at dinner parties. They vanished, straight out of the oven.
Hi Martha. Where can i get the exact measurement of ingredients for the croissant dough? i just find it hard to convert quarter cups to grams to tbsp..im very bad in math😁 thank you. i hope to make this soon.❤️
Se ven hermosos aunque yo no sé inglés ... podrías haber puesto subtitulos para saber las cantidades para poder hacerlos, igual felicitaciones desde mi país Chile 🇨🇱
Wonder how this way of softening the butter, then spread on the dough - without even chilling first - compares with the traditional butter block? Would love to hear from anyone who's tried both methods, and what the differences are in terms of flakiness, flavor, texture, etc. Martha's way is definitely easier.
Can you make and roll these the night before and then make them in the morning? Also can you store the dough for future use or should you cook it within a day or so of making? Thanks!
She does look great. It's also the magic of judicious use of a great cosmetics surgeon, and great lighting. Aging well is alot about attitude. And having money doesn't hurt either.
So great - but let's avoid the plastic wrap or at least let's not just pop it, but rather reuse it at least for the 2nd rise. I rise with a moist cloth and for the refrigeration I put it in a pyrex lidded glass casserole dish.
Martha: Ever since I was a teenager, I have always been impressed with your videos and recipes. However, I am surprised at how you measure out dry ingredients (by volume), and I've seen this on nearly all of your videos from your classic television shows. My maternal grandmother (who was taught to bake by her maternal grandmother and aunt) taught me to *never* scoop and level with the cup, as it changes the measurement by weight. Grandma taught me to spoon the dry ingredients (i.e. flour) into the measuring cup and then use a flat edge of a knife to level it off. Same rule applies to baking powder and baking soda. I realize that with all your years of cooking and baking experience that my comment may seem to be insulting, but it isn't meant to be. It's just an observation.
Thanks for watching! Which recipe will you try first?
Starting with the basic croissant! Thank you!
Thank you for this great work.I'd like to try the first( plain)one.Will you please tell your flour cup as a "gram" ?
Pain au chocolat. :)
I once tried a fresh croissant with caramel and chocolate spread, just one bite. It was heaven but also very rich, unforgettable.

@T.D. Newsh They turned out well for a first timer....we enjoyed them...stay true to Martha's recipe...you can't go wrong....enjoy😊
I know I wouldn't take the time to go thru all these steps but they came out beautifully, respect to the bakers👍

Martha's really in her element when she's baking.
Watching hwr since i was kiddo.. with my Mom.. now I learn frong her.. thank you Martha.. me from Indonesia
I love how real Martha is. She doesn’t care if you see her iPad with the recipes on it. I’m the same way haha
We she said it was quite complicated to make in the beginning, so stands to reason!

Right. It's not about remembering every recipe but how well you follow them.
My mom has watched you since she was a little kid she would save and buy magazines and cook books! I see why she loves you
Thank you Martha, my dough was sticky, it rose nicely. Can’t wait to try one. Thank you 😊 So much. I know that it takes you through a lot of steps. You work very hard to bring all these nice recipes to the people.

the traditional croissant method takes up to 2 days to make
You make this look SO EASY! I try to follow Anna Olson, but the butter dough (I forget the French word) is just SO COMPLICATED! Ty for this!
This is truly a labor of love.
I love how all the experts have different interpretations and measurements
Love, love, loving Martha. Always an inspiration and a hard worker. Ah that we could all work as hard to make the world a better place. Thank you Martha from the bottom of my heart. You are a joy.
Damn, Martha is 80 now. This made me feel old. I remember watching her tv show regularly when I was a kid.
She may be 80 but looks more like 50.
I can always count on you. Everything I try works beautifully.
Pain au chocolate made my day! Thanks for this classic treat, Martha.
I love croissants but I've never made them. I'll have to try this.
Looks Delicious and we can’t wait to try these recipes. 👏 Thank you for sharing 👍👍 Stay safe healthy and happy 😃
I've never had a croissant that I liked. Their usually rubbery and they weren't flaky.
I want these, they look so gooood. I want the chocolate one now! I love your show Martha Bakes. I've seen quite a few.
I love you Martha l used to watch all your videos since I was in college it makes me alive
As a french kid, les pains au chocolat were my fav breakfast treats.
She does it with so much ease!
These are beautiful.......Absolutely beautiful.....I can taste them right now....
Turning in our orange rolls for this everymorning. Yum Ms.Martha
Wow. Time, effort and patience. Lovely!
The glass tip is genius! Thanks Martha❤️
I LOVE her TV shows that demo like this!
I guess our lovely Martha took a definitive stance on the great Pain au Chocolat vs Chocolatine debate.
Excellent job well done keep up the good work I will prepare some thanks for sharing my friend ❤
I really loved your recipes you have the best cooking recipes in the world thank you
Cannot find cake yeast at any stores in my area so I will use my gold star. Anxious to try the recipe

Love Martha AND almond croissants!

This video makes me think of cronuts and cruffins ( which I absolutely want to try)
Guessing the dough would be good with mushroom filling. Trying to find my Craig Claiborne NY Times Cookbook with pastry filled with mushrooms hors d'oeuvre s.. It was an instant hit at dinner parties. They vanished, straight out of the oven.
Beautiful results from Martha!
A real cook and homemaker.
Love love this episode. Definitely my TOP 3 Martha vids in this series.
I was just wondering how those croissants were made and then your video popped up! Must of caught my wavelength thank you so much Martha!💜💜💜
Hope you enjoy!
Martha you are a rock star and a legend. Will make this soon. And if I goof it up, there's a great French bakery down the street. :)
She’s real baker no hidden secrets on baking
My baked goods puns always make my mother's sister angry..
She a real *Croissant!*

Hej ALL , ALL WITHOUT SOGER, AGG .THANK YOU VERY MUCH , MY FAVORITE NAME ” MARTHA ” 🌺🙏
Can you make and roll these the night before and then make them in the morning?
Also can you store the dough for future use or should you cook it within a day or so of making?
Thanks!
Amo croissant.
I ADORE READING
Mmmm croissants. So delicious. From season 2 episode 6
Thank you so much 💓
Julia Child's croissant recipe (from the black and white show) is also very good.
Every thing looks so tasty
is this recent?? she looks phenomenal for 80!! go martha
She does look great. It's also the magic of judicious use of a great cosmetics surgeon, and great lighting. Aging well is alot about attitude. And having money doesn't hurt either.

Lovely recipes and croissants 🥐👨🍳
So great - but let's avoid the plastic wrap or at least let's not just pop it, but rather reuse it at least for the 2nd rise. I rise with a moist cloth and for the refrigeration I put it in a pyrex lidded glass casserole dish.
my mouth is watering
I love you Mama
Looking really nice.
Yummmmy croissant 😋😋😋💐💐💐💐💐
Martha: Ever since I was a teenager, I have always been impressed with your videos and recipes. However, I am surprised at how you measure out dry ingredients (by volume), and I've seen this on nearly all of your videos from your classic television shows.
My maternal grandmother (who was taught to bake by her maternal grandmother and aunt) taught me to *never* scoop and level with the cup, as it changes the measurement by weight. Grandma taught me to spoon the dry ingredients (i.e. flour) into the measuring cup and then use a flat edge of a knife to level it off. Same rule applies to baking powder and baking soda.

Very nice Martha but such hard work
Hello Martha, how many grams are in the cups? Thank you.
thanks i love you so much for so many years
Can the dough freeze well?
Thanks
Amazing Love it.Thank you so much
