Critical Success Points

  • Kneading should last about 10 minutes and the dough should lightly cling to the bowl walls.
  • The butter must stay very cold during the turns to achieve good lamination.
  • Observe the refrigerator rest times (4 h then 30 min) to prevent the dough from tearing.
  • Moisten the rolls before the second rise to prevent drying.
  • Final glaze with beaten egg just before baking for a beautiful color.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle melted butter carefully to avoid burns.
  • The oven reaches 210 °C: use kitchen gloves.
  • Use a sharp knife to avoid slipping.
