ADVANCED PASTRY: CROISSANT & DANISH - SUN, APR 27

Laminated yeast dough encompasses flaky yeast-based pastries such as croissants, pain au chocolat, and Danish pastry. Often considered difficult and time-consuming, they are nonetheless rewarding to make at home, and there is nothing like a croissant fresh out of the oven. If you have made puff pastry, you are well on your way to croissants, but success depends on understanding a few key steps, such as temperature control of the dough and rolling technique, both of which require some precision beyond that for puff pastry.

This class requires a certain amount of baking experience. Familiarity with pastry, such as pie crust, and yeast breads is a must. The class is hands-on, everyone will be making laminated dough. Students will finish the class with croissants that are shaped, but should take them home immediately afterwards for the final rise and bake. You'll learn temperature control techniques, intermediate dough rolling techniques, and how to make a laminated dough from scratch. Pain au Chocolat and Danishes will be sampled during class and Croissants will be taken home to be baked and enjoyed.

MENU

• Freshly formed and baked Croissants.
