Croissant Dough Formula
Great lesson BUT..........
Can you please translate this formula
to laymens language, pounds and onces or metric, any thing but %, thanks qahtan.
Croissant Dough Formula
Bread Flour 100%
Milk 23%
Water 38%
Sugar 13%
Salt 2%
Yeast 1.2%
Dry Malt .5%
Butter .5%
Total Dough 181.7%
Butter,Roll-in 25% of total dough weight
Sorry, because I deal in many size portions it is easier for me to work in percentages.
Here is the formula in metrics
Flour 1000 g or 1 K
Milk 230 g
Water 380 g
Sugar 130 g
Salt 20 g
Yeast 12 g
Dry Malt 5 g
Butter 5 g
Dough Weight 1.817 K
Butter for roll-in 454 g
Hope this helps
If not I can reconvert.
