Howdy and Aloha Bakers. I made some of these roll things the other day. These are a nice break from bread making for me. I did my lamination of the dough in a walk-in fridge, much easier time than my last pastry work.
All I had on hand was whole wheat so I used that instead of pastry flour. Worked well I thought.
After lamination and final spread on the table, I spread a sugar buttery paste on the dough and sprinkled raisins, crushed walnuts and some chocolate chips on. Then just rolled into a long snake and cut slices out of it. I got the technique from Vincent Talleu's pastry video, click here
and cream cheese glaze? Just kidding, love the whole grains and less sugar isn't all bad. Well done and Happy baking
yes simple! The monks frown upon super sweet things so I focused more on a simple product, but balanced. Theres cane sugar in the dough and the walnuts were crushed in a cane sugar/butter blended bath.
I only sprinkled cinnamon on top right before baking, partly because I forgot to do it earlier!
