1
Hey, I'm John Connell, and today on Preppy Kitchen, we're making some buttery, flaky, homemade croissants.
2
So let's get started.
3
We're starting off this recipe with two -thirds of a cup of warmed whole milk.
4
80 to 90 degrees is great.
5
To the milk, I'm adding a tablespoon of granulated sugar to give our yeast some food to eat.
6
They're going to be hungry.
7
And now we're going to add one envelope or two and a quarter teaspoons of active dry yeast.
8
Not instant.
9
Give this a stir and we're gonna set it aside for five to 10 minutes
10
or until the yeast is nice and foamy.
11
These croissants have steps.
12
This is not in the quick and easy recipe.
13
This is I wanna challenge, I wanna make something and have a sense of accomplishment.
14
So I wanna tell you right now, do not use yeast that is bad for this recipe because it'll be very sad.
15
It won't turn out nicely.
16
You wanna see a nice foamy head and if it doesn't have a nice foamy head, start over again with a new packet of yeast.
17
While this rises, I'm going to set that aside and measure out my flour.
18
For this recipe, you'll want 4 cups or 480 grams of all -purpose flour.
19
This is one of my most requested recipes.
20
I'm so excited to share it with you.
21
A proper croissant is a beautiful laminated dough.
22
So you have layers of a yeast -leavened dough with butter.
23
Butter dough, butter dough, butter dough, and we're going to make these pages.
24
But first, we have to make our dough.
25
And when you're doing that, you wanna have the correct amount of flour.
26
So using a scale is definitely the best practice.
27
If you don't have one, don't scoop the flour, sprinkle it into your measuring cup and level it off.
28
You don't wanna pack it in.
29
For some contrast, we're adding two and a half teaspoons of salt.
30
One, two, and a half.
31
And for a kiss of sweetness, but more importantly, some softness to the dough,
32
I'm gonna add the remaining three tablespoons of granulated sugar.
33
Whenever you add sugar to a dough, you're gonna get a more delicate texture.
34
It'll become more cakey, if you will.
35
Our scale's done, so grab a whisk, and we're gonna mix it up.
36
By the way, if you like my videos, go ahead and hit that subscribe button.
37
There's two new recipes every single week.
38
Once you make this recipe, you're gonna see that it's actually not that hard to make a proper laminated dough, and you'll have a world of pastries open up to you.
39
There's so many different things you can do with a lovely laminated dough.
40
Okay, nice and mixed up.
41
Grab your stand mixer and we're just waiting to have some beautiful foamy yeast.
42
We're using milk and not water here, so the yeast does have to work a little bit harder and it needs some more time.
43
My yeast has bloomed nicely and it's time to add half a cup of cold water right in.
44
i'm going to add this right in for this recipe you'll
45
want to use european butter not the regular american style butter
46
european butter will be softer more yellow in color usually
47
and the main difference is it's a higher fat content
48
so it's perfect for this as opposed to the american style
49
which has a little bit more water in it
50
so that's four tablespoons or a quarter cup of very softened european butter
51
and i microwaved this
52
because it was a little too firm at room temperature we're going to pop our dough hook on
53
and mix this up low speed for about a minute or until the dough is shaggy and coming together
54
by the way you have a choice here you can start this recipe in the morning
55
and finish it in the evening but this is a breakfast pastry
56
so it's more traditional i think to have it broken up over two days.
57
You start the dough on one day and you finish it in the morning.
58
In addition to the time management of it all, the overnight rest time will give the gluten some time to relax while still keeping the butter nice and cold.
59
The enemy here is heat because if you're making this on a hot summer day and your air conditioning is broken,
60
it's basically impossible to keep the butter cold enough to keep those pages separated.
61
You want that nice lamination which requires a thin, cold layer of butter.
62
My dough's balled up really nicely.
63
I have some structure developing, and now we're going to shape it.
64
So, our mixer's done.
65
Grab a good length of plastic wrap.
66
Turn the dough onto the plastic wrap.
67
I'm gonna pat this into a square shape now.
68
and your dough should be about a half inch thick so we're going to wrap this tightly now
69
and refrigerate it for half an hour this will let the dough rest
70
and relax a bit
71
so it's more easy to handle in the meantime we're going
72
to make our butter pat it's the other half of the croissant
73
while our dough's chilling grab one and a quarter cup of cold european butter
74
and just let it hang out on the countertop for about 15 minutes to warm slightly
75
if you're not used to using this butter, it gets softer much quicker than a regular butter.
76
It's the higher fat content.
77
This part of the recipe, which is pure butter, is called the beurrage.
78
Beurre is butter in French.
79
And I have a horrible accent, so please don't criticize.
80
We're gonna cut two pieces of parchment paper into 12 by 12 inch squares. And repeat.
81
Once that's done, it's time to cut your butter so we're going to cut tablespoon -sized pieces.
82
And you should have 20 pieces for 20 tablespoons.
83
If you're working in a commercial bakery, this would be fairly automated.
84
You'd have machines to help you out.
85
But we're going to do it by hand the old -fashioned way.
86
Now we're going to lay these out into a 4x5 grid, right in the center of the parchment.
87
My tablespoons are not perfect, but that's totally okay.
88
Push them together.
89
Okay, that's good.
90
For the next step, you'll want a rolling pin and probably a bench scraper or a big knife.
91
Cover your butter up with your parchment paper and you're gonna roll and pound it into a thin sheet.
92
You'll have a 10 -inch square that's about an eighth of an inch thick.
93
After you've pounded it a bit, you can roll.
94
And if you have a rolling pin with bumpers, that could be very handy for you.
95
Some of the butter's gonna start coming apart, so periodically you can lift the parchment paper off and just kind of scooch it back in place.
96
If this is looking really lumpy, you can scrape and smooth the top, but so far, this looks pretty nice.
97
Okay, back on and more rolling.
98
You can cheat a little bit if things are getting kind of out of shape.
99
A lot of people watch the channel kind of just to relax, and I get that.
100
It's very relaxing to watch people do some work, but they don't have the intention of making this recipe.
101
If you're watching this video, let me know in the comments if you actually plan on making this
102
or you're just vaguely curious about the process paper back on
103
and we'll continue okay we're getting close this is actually better to do on a cold countertop
104
when you're doing this step your butter is going to become softer as you work it
105
but it should still be cool to the touch
106
if things are warming up lift it up
107
and goes right into the fridge to cool out cool down
108
your butter is going to want to make a circle so
109
So you might be kind of cutting and piecing things in to keep that square shape.
110
The shape is actually quite important.
111
As you develop a better technique, you'll find this becomes easier and easier, but don't be afraid to just piece things in.
112
Here, the only thing that matters is the end result.
113
Okay, we're getting so close.
114
So we have a 10 by 10 -ish inch square -ish shape.
115
That looks good to me.
116
I'm gonna cover this back up and this goes into the refrigerator for 10 minutes to chill a bit, but not harden.
117
So don't leave this in for an hour.
118
It's really about 10 minutes just so it kind of gets some of its strength back.
119
Everything's rested and chilled.
120
So now we're gonna lightly flour our surface
121
and I'm using a pastry mat today just because it really helps for things not sticking.
122
Place it onto your counter.
123
I'm gonna lightly flour the top as well, as well as my rolling pin.
124
and this will get rolled out into a 10 by 20
125
inch rectangle once it's rolled out it should be about a
126
quarter of an inch thick you can kind of lift it up to
127
which helps corral it back into shape today we're making a
128
basic butter croissant a basic butter croissant as you get more comfortable you can begin adding fillings and flavorings
129
well well well after just a little bit of rolling we have a 20 by 10 inch rectangle
130
and i can just pat this back into a nice rectangular shape no rounded corners for us this looks great
131
if you need to sharpen up the corners you can brush
132
any flower off the top there should be none left over
133
and make sure the long side is facing you i took my butter out just a couple minutes ago
134
and And at this point, it's nice and cool, but it won't crack when I bend it.
135
So you can give it a little test.
136
And if it cracks, leave it on the countertop for three to five more minutes.
137
If not, you are ready for the next step.
138
We're gonna lift it up and flip this butter side down onto the center of our dough.
139
Now lift your parchment paper off.
140
Now you're gonna fold the dough over so it meets in the middle.
141
If it shrinks back, just pull it out a little bit.
142
Pinch that center seam together so it doesn't disconnect.
143
Now we're gonna be very gentle and just roll with a rolling pin to make sure everything's nice and connected.
144
One more set of pinches, so here we're going to make sure our butter is fully sealed in.
145
you want everything to look kind of perfect even at this stage
146
so grab the bench scraper or a big knife
147
and just square up the sides especially on the pinched edges
148
things might have gotten a bit lumpy I'm gonna lightly flour the top I'm using a pastry mat
149
so I know nothing will stick to it
150
if you're rolling things out on your countertop you should add a little bit more flour too The height is fine, the width needs to increase, so keep it at 10 inches high.
151
We want 18 inches long.
152
Nice even force here because we don't want really anything to rip open.
153
And we're being slow because there's a thick layer of butter that's not moving as fast as the dough here.
154
I see there's a little air bubble right at the edge here.
155
I don't want that to continue, so I'm gonna pierce it and just push the air out, then pinch it back together.
156
So at the moment, I have one layer of butter, two layers of dough
157
and everything is really thick you want to have a ton of layers think of those croissants
158
that you buy at a nice bakery they have all these layers to them
159
so this will only happen by rolling and folding and rolling
160
and folding and rolling
161
and folding until you've worked up those beautiful layers you'll notice for this part i'm using a straight rolling pin
162
so important and it's going to be much easier
163
if your rolling pin is fairly long the shorter ones
164
or a french one which is tapered
165
which i love for making pie dough for example is not going to be great for this
166
so find your straightest longest rolling pin for the easiest set of rolls and
167
if you're looking at this thinking no i don't like this
168
at all i'm not going to do this i understand
169
and you can click up here for my how to make rough puff video
170
which is kind of like the cheat version of a laminated dough it's much easier
171
and you get a similar effects
172
but not the same keep rolling out a little bit of rolling later
173
and we have an 18 by 10 inch rectangle
174
so we're ready for the next step chances are
175
that your edges are a little bit lumpy and I know for sure
176
that there is a gap on either edge where the butter is not
177
but the dough is so we're gonna trim this
178
up if you had any excess flour just always brush
179
that off we never want flour before we fold
180
because that'll prevent sticking it's time for our first fold
181
so imagine they're folding a piece of paper to fit into an envelope this should be divided into thirds
182
and you're gonna fold this over there we go this is why a pastry mat comes in so handy.
183
Now you want to grab a baking sheet, line it with parchment paper, and we're going to transfer the dough right over.
184
That's the easiest way for me.
185
Grab a bench scraper and we're just going to neaten the edges up.
186
I want a nice beautiful rectangle.
187
Cover this tightly with plastic wrap and this goes into the fridge for half an hour.
188
Every time you work with this the butter starts getting dangerously soft
189
so in between each step we're gonna pop this into the
190
fridge to chill out the gluten in the dough will rest the butter will firm up
191
and our next step will be easier this marks the end
192
of my first turn there are four turns in total into
193
the fridge you go after half an hour of chill time lightly flour your surface once again
194
and even though Now I'm using a pastry mat here, which is not sticky.
195
I want the dough to roll evenly, meaning it's not gonna be forced apart, it's gonna just spread nicely.
196
Unwrap your dough, lightly flour the top as well.
197
What's important here is to keep the short side short and the long side long.
198
So we're gonna roll this back out into a 10 by 18 inch rectangle, just being sure that we're not trying to change the orientation of the shape.
199
And you're allowed to move things around, Just like when you're making a pie crust, you want to keep it moving so you are sure that nothing's getting stuck.
200
If you see any air bubbles, you can try and force them out of the side.
201
And then let's check the dimensions every once in a while.
202
This recipe is a Virgo's dream.
203
All right, this looks pretty good.
204
It's 18 by 10, and if you need to, you can kind of just scooch things around so the lines are more straight.
205
If the short ends look really bad, you can give them a trim.
206
Otherwise, I would just kind of pat and scooch as needed.
207
You do not want to cut the long sides because here's the deal.
208
When this bakes, some parts have to be sealed.
209
Otherwise, you'll have leakages of butter that are unfortunate.
210
Just gonna mark off my thirds, six.
211
six there's any extra flour on the top you're going to remove
212
that just like you did before fold it over I have some extra flour on the bottom
213
so brush that off and now fold the other edge over
214
giving us the lightest of rolls
215
and just a little straighten now we can return this to our parchment lined pan recover it in plastic
216
if you have waxed cloth you could use
217
that as well by the way and we'll refrigerate another 30 minutes
218
and repeat this all over again we're halfway through the folding
219
lightly sprinkle your surface once again for our third roll we
220
are just building up layer after layer here lightly flour the top lightly flour your rolling pin
221
and another 10 by 18 inch rectangle is in our future
222
and remember you you can feel free to keep moving things along.
223
Square it up as you move along.
224
And by the way, you can click up here for my Paris bakery tour part one.
225
I'll put links to both in the description box below.
226
In part two, I examine some of the best croissant in Paris.
227
And yes, these are a morning pastry.
228
You would never try and order a croissant in the afternoon and otherwise you'd be corrected.
229
So really what we're doing here is just building up layer after layer of laminated dough.
230
And honestly, once you do this recipe a few times, you will not be at all frightened of it.
231
Actually, even after the first time, you'll be like, this is so much easier than I thought it was.
232
Are there a lot of steps?
233
Yes, there are a lot of steps.
234
This is not a quick and easy recipe like apple muffins
235
but is it technically like really difficult not really as long
236
as you bought the right butter your kitchen is a regular
237
temperature like not super hot not icy cold you should be
238
fine 18 by 10 we are ready to fold squaring it off give it a fold then
239
and a brush i don't want any excess flour
240
here
241
and another fold just gonna give this the lightest of rolls
242
before I pop it back into the fridge I just want to encourage a better connection through community building
243
and rolling pins back onto your parchment paper our plastic The grab goes back on top.
244
And this goes back into the fridge for another half hour and our final fold. So close.
245
Out of the fridge, another light dusting of flour.
246
A little more flour on top.
247
And once again, we're rolling into a 10 by 18 inch rectangle.
248
if you see any butter kind of starting to pop out of either of the sides the long
249
or the short use a bench scraper
250
and just press it back in that'll happen
251
because the butter cools down the fastest on the edge
252
and as you roll you're moving a little solid piece of butter out which could pop out that's not good
253
okay just a little bit of rolling later i have a 10 by 18 inch rectangle
254
and i can give it a final fold what's easy to forget here is
255
that we're using a yeasted dough so even though we're
256
so focused on this being like layers of butter
257
and dough this is yeasted and there will be a rise
258
which will help give you that puffy lovely texture last brush just any excess flour goes away fold it into thirds,
259
removing excess flour again, and my last fold.
260
Just patting this down ever so gently.
261
Wrap your dough tightly in plastic, and we're gonna refrigerate this overnight, or for up to 18 hours.
262
When we come back, this will be ready to finish.
263
It's a new day.
264
My dough's been resting overnight, and you can see it puffed considerably my yeast were working even though it was cold and dark.
265
You wanna lightly flour your countertop now.
266
And I'm again using a pastry mat because I don't want anything to stick.
267
This dough feels so soft and puffy now.
268
We're gonna dump this out without the plastic onto our countertop.
269
I'm also gonna dust the top of this.
270
We're gonna start off nice and gentle.
271
I'm looking for pockets of air, like that's a pocket of air.
272
If you see a pocket of air, just pierce it, good.
273
If you notice any tearing of the dough, rewrap and let it sit on the countertop for five minutes just to warm up a bit more.
274
After some initial pressing, you can now begin rolling.
275
Gently at first.
276
We're gonna roll this out to a 12 by 28 inch rectangle,
277
so it's gonna be big let's try and keep it in a rectangular shape and
278
if you notice things are sticking add a little bit more
279
flour at this point in the recipe you're really on easy street
280
but you want to make sure
281
that nothing goes wrong with your precious laminated dough you spent
282
so much time on if I made fresh homemade croissants for you
283
and my praises were not being sung I'd be horrified this This took quite a while.
284
I hope you like them.
285
Your dough should be nice and pliable and stretchy after resting overnight, but you will see some pullback.
286
My dough is looking pretty nice and silky.
287
If your dough cracked or tore, not the best thing.
288
So what you want to do is brush lightly with water, pinch it back.
289
You want to re -encase that butter with the dough.
290
And then cover with plastic and let it rest for five minutes, then keep rolling.
291
We're nearly there.
292
Never mind.
293
Got some rolling to do.
294
I'm really worrying about the length as the height is going to be much easier.
295
28 by 12.
296
We are ready to cut.
297
I'm going to mark this off in four inch increments starting
298
at the bottom left on the top left side we're going to measure out two inches
299
and then from
300
that two inch mark every four inches our very fancy pastry crescents are just triangles of dough
301
that are rolled up this is making those triangles
302
so here grab a knife or a pastry cutter
303
and we're going to begin cutting this is scrap i'm going to save it
304
because every Every bit of this recipe needs cherishing.
305
Now you're just going to arrange from that top point to the bottom four inch mark and make your first proper triangle.
306
Move the ruler and you're gonna keep going.
307
At this point, if your triangles aren't perfect, a little bit of skew, it doesn't matter.
308
Give yourself some grace.
309
And I would suggest going from the thick end to the point, otherwise the pastry tends to roll up on you.
310
If you see anything sticking together, you can pull the triangle a little bit just to create some distance something very soothing
311
and methodical about all these precise cuts grab three rimmed baking
312
sheets I also suggest you cover up your precious dough with paper
313
or plastic just while you're working
314
so nothing dries out we've worked too hard to let it go to waste now you don't have to
315
but I'm lining my baking sheets with parchment paper.
316
And now we're going to begin our construction.
317
You're going to cut about half an inch from the bottom of your triangle, the thick part.
318
We want to create some more width for them, and we're going to do this by folding and stretching.
319
So create two little triangles like that.
320
My dough is pretty perfect as far as the surface consistency.
321
If there was any flour remaining, brush that away before you begin this.
322
Now we're gonna roll this up and gently pull apart with our fingers as we roll.
323
Just roll, roll, roll, gentle pressure, and now we can place this onto our baking sheet.
324
As you continue this process you'll get better and better.
325
Don't worry if the first one doesn't look perfect.
326
So we want the tip facing down and then you can gently
327
maneuver this into a c -shape these will be puffing
328
because there's yeast here and it's now at room temperature
329
so we're going to give these a lot of space about
330
six inches in between each one you'll be able to fit four to six croissants on each sheet tray give
331
that a cut pull those apart
332
and you can see the little layers of lamination here and now as we pull from the edge slightly.
333
We're going to roll this up.
334
You're going to be gentle.
335
Tipside down, just like that.
336
You'll feel more and more confident as you do each of these.
337
Don't worry about these looking as perfect as possible.
338
It's time to roll these up before the butter melts.
339
That's what I'll tell you.
340
As you work, maybe the top is a little bit more dry than the bottom, so you can flip these upside down so they stick a bit better.
341
okay we're almost done you're gonna have three beautiful trays
342
but these need time to rise and they're super rich
343
so your yeast are gonna have to work very hard hard -working yeast need more time
344
and just like that my last croissant this is actually a scrap
345
but i was able to roll it out Goes right on here, a little movement into a C -shape.
346
Lightly cover these with plastic.
347
We don't want them to dry out.
348
I'm gonna use a double sheet for each of these baking trays.
349
We're gonna leave these out for two and a half to three hours to rise at about 72 degrees Fahrenheit.
350
It should be like a nice room temperature rise.
351
Not too hot, so the butter melts.
352
Not too cold, so it takes forever.
353
Two hours into your rise time, you're gonna preheat your oven to 425, so it is very hot.
354
But don't worry, we'll be reducing the temperature ASAP.
355
First, let's get these risen.
356
Time has passed, and as promised, one of the trays is ready, the other ones aren't.
357
I just wanna show you the difference.
358
These guys puffed.
359
Look at that jiggle.
360
They're ready to go into the oven.
361
It's preheated to 425, but we need to give them an egg wash really quickly.
362
One egg and a tablespoon of heavy cream.
363
give it a good mix you want to give them an egg wash
364
but you don't want to seal the cut side so carefully
365
and gently just add a light egg wash onto the top sides
366
these are sorry these are so nice and jiggly
367
and puffed these ones are still proofing
368
so we're give them more time you're gonna find
369
that of the three one tray will be ready first
370
which makes it easy since you probably don't have three ovens
371
at the ready i'm trying to be careful right now
372
because i really have you know invested some time making these croissant for you
373
and i'd like them to be finished nicely
374
so i'm being very gentle proofed puffed jiggly
375
and egg washed my croissants ready to pop into the oven 425
376
but the moment you close the door reduce to 375
377
and you'll bake them for 15 to 20 minutes
378
or until they're a deep golden brown if you want to temp these out the internal temperature should be 190.
379
in you go and in the meantime keep an eye on your next ones
380
and start egg washing once they're puffed buttery crisp
381
and i cannot tell you how proud i am of of these little guys.
382
They came out just as I hoped they would.
383
You can see all the layers of lamination.
384
They rose really well.
385
And this, by the way, is the one I made out of the scraps.
386
The rest of them look even nicer.
387
But enough about that.
388
It's time for a bite.
389
These guys are so buttery, flaky, airy, and light.
390
Really a labor of love, a challenge, a project bake.
391

Corrija seus pontos fracos
O diálogo tem uma ritmo conversacional com pausas naturais, o que é ótimo para praticar o shadowing (técnica de repetir frases imitando o falante). A pronúncia de palavras como "laminated dough" (massa laminada) e "yeast" (fermento) pode ser desafiadora, mas o vídeo ajuda a ouvir a entonação correta. Além disso, frases como "give our yeast some food to eat" (dê ao fermento algo para comer) usam metáforas simples, ensinando a falar de forma mais expressiva. Use o vídeo para treinar a prática de conversação em inglês ao repetir as frases em tempo real – isso melhora não só a pronúncia, mas também a fluência.
Se você quer melhorar a pronúncia em inglês, o shadowing é uma técnica poderosa: reproduza cada frase do vídeo imitando o tom, a velocidade e as pausas de John. Com isso, você vai se acostumar a sons difíceis e a estrutura de frases mais naturais. Lembre-se: a prática diária com clipes como esse é a chave para progredir!
Gramática neste vídeo
As estruturas que o falante mais usa, com as palavras exatas do vídeo:
| Estrutura | No vídeo |
|---|---|
| Voz passiva be + particípio passado — o foco está no que acontece, não em quem faz | is broken · is called · is tapered |
| Present perfect have/has + particípio passado — uma ação passada que ainda importa agora | has bloomed · you've pounded · you've worked |
| Orações relativas who / which + oração — informação extra sobre uma pessoa ou coisa | recipe, which is · one which is · here, which is |
| Conselho com “should” should + verbo — dizer o que é uma boa ideia | should be · should have · should still be |
O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
