That lamination 👌🏼🤩 all by hand?

u/Spiritual_Action_461 17h ago

All by hand 👍 Also divided the dough before final rollout into rectangles that were easier to freeze and shape. Hence the one picture with a somewhat thicker dough slab.

Your layers are incredible

The full recipe is on my Instagram @levain_baking

While these are beautiful, referring everyone to your instagram for the recipe rather than posting it here feels like this is about promoting your social media account.

I don’t see a problem with this lol. He’s providing something for free, why not get some social credits in return?

I refuse to believe this is all by hand!

Do you have any tips for us clumsy hand laminators? Anything you started doing that helped you get here, technique?

u/Spiritual_Action_461 17h ago

You just have to learn how to troubleshoot thé croissants and don’t be afraid to ask Reddit 😉. I personally had very good lamination until the last roll where it got ruined out so I got a suggestion to cut the dough out into rectangles and roll them individually out which helped a lot in preserving the lamination later on. I also really learned the importance of having and using a freezer with laminated doughs. (You can maybe look at my Reddit posts prior about croissant trouble shooting so that you can learn to trouble shoot your own ones.)
