  • Croissants are a staple in French pastry. A fresh coffee and a croissant create the perfect breakfast combination. So, how are perfect French croissants made? How did they become so popular in France, and how were they invented in the first place? Legend has it that the croissant wasn't even invented in France. To answer these questions, we went to Paris, France, and visited a classic boulangerie - a French bakery - to find out.

  • @julienmarie_personal
    @julienmarie_personal 3 месяца назад +15

    The shape of the croissant comes from Vienna but not the recipe. It was just a little bread. It's only in Paris than it became a pastry, using lamination.

    • @napoleonsdauphin
      @napoleonsdauphin 3 месяца назад +4

      indeed, Vienna is really the home of the precursor to the croissant, which lives on as the Kipferl or Briochekipferl. Not laminated, though still quite good and also only really eaten at breakfast (they go stale very quickly).

    • @CelesteAya

    Actually there is many countries have a best croissant than France. Btw France bakery are not like what it used to be (loaded with sugar and blend butter) especially in Paris probably because of tourism attraction and many bakery actually doesn’t make their own croissant anymore instead ordered from mass produced baked goods factory.
