Croissant class

I attended this past weekend my first cooking class in well more than a year. Kitchen Conservatory has been open for business this whole time, but I couldn’t bring myself to feel safe in any crowd at all.

But now I do. Well, saf-er.

And the croissant class was a winner!

Four teams of four each worked 1.5 pounds of butter into laminated layers inside the pre-made dough, then created different kinds of croissants. And then we learned how to make the dough, whilst eating our creations.

I happily gave my pain au chocolat to someone else, but devoured the cronut (a fried croissant dough) and the almond croissant and the classic croissant.
