Stuart Laing, Budget and Resource Planning

I grew up with a Mother who baked every weekend.  She passed along her cook books to me and my brother.  Before the pandemic, we updated our kitchen oven to a bigger oven. 

Friends said…. Start baking, Stuart.  I thought – Croissants are something my mother would be proud of…. Thus, I started.

This is the recipe Stuart uses, from Fine Cooking: https://www.finecooking.com/recipe/classic-croissants

Stuart’s pro-tip: use European butter (he uses Plugra non-salted)
