Daily Activity 6 August 2019

On Tuesday of this second week, we still had to make snacks and lunch boxes for the Job Fair, and my group got the task of making Croissants. We agreed to make Croissants individually from 2 recipes, the recipe from a book given by Mr. Ical and the recipe from Ikky. And first, we make Croissants based on the recipe from Ikky.

First, I mixed hard flour, yeast, butter, sugar, bread improver and milk powder in one container. After that, the mixture that has been mixed is given water slowly then stirring using hands. After the mixture was evenly mixed, we form the dough into a square shape so that it would be easier to flatten. After that we stored the dough in chiller for 15 minutes.

After 15 minutes, we flattened the dough using a rolling pin, smeared with butter and then stored it again in the chiller. We flattened the dough again up to 3 times by the rules of single-double-single. After that, Ikky helped me how to measure the dough, we put back the dough in the chiller for 30 minutes. We took back the dough at room temperature for 20-30 minutes, then we baked the dough. When we took back the dough from the oven, it turned out that my Croissant failed because the dough did not rise, instead it went down :(
