Methodology

Add Ingredients

Add both dry and liquid ingredients into mixer.

Mix Ingredients

Mix ingredients until dough is formed. Check to see if the dough is ready by utilizing the window method.

Emulsifying Butter

Emulsify butter into the dough by slowing adding dough into the running mixer. Be careful not to add too much butter at once as this may cause clumping.

Scale & Refrigerate

Scale and shape mixed dough into rounded boules than will be refrigerated overnight.

Divide & Form

Place refrigerated boule onto rounding plate, dusting with flour. Proceed to process with Divider/Rounder and mould into the desired product.

Proofing

Proof your moulded products for two hours or until dough is approximately 50% larger than the originally formed piece.

Egg Wash

Egg wash utilizing a pastry brush or Egg Spraying equipment. Be sure the entire product is evenly coated.
