Chef's Notes
Lamination is a test of character, my friends. Do not rush the chilling steps, or your butter will melt into the dough and you will end up with mere bread instead of flaky royalty.
Pro Tip
If your butter starts fighting back and cracking during the folding process, let it rest for two minutes. Patience is the secret ingredient of pastry chefs.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Attempting to rush the proofing stage in a microwave or overly hot oven will melt the butter right out of the pastry, leaving you with a puddle of greasy sadness on your baking sheet.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
It takes 6 hours to make these, but only 6 seconds to eat themβa perfect metaphor for the fleeting nature of royal power.
The Culinary Science
When the water in the butter turns to steam in a 400Β°F oven, it expands rapidly and gets trapped by the dough layers, creating hundreds of glorious, flaky micro-layers.
