laminating…
We don't sell pastry. We sell the moment it shatters.
i.
The Lamination
A single block of Charentes-Poitou butter, folded through the dough across three cold days until it carries two hundred and fifty-six distinct leaves.
ii.
The Proof
Slow-risen overnight at fourteen degrees, so the crumb opens into honeycomb rather than bread. Patience is the only leavening we trust.
iii.
The Bite
Twenty seconds out of the oven and the shell gives way in a small storm of flakes. That sound is the whole point.
