Preparation
Bring water and sugar to boil on a stove.
Keep on boiling for one minute, then remove from heat.
Remove the laminated dough from the fridge and roll it out to 4 mm.
Cut the dough into triangles of the desidered weight, roll them up well tight, from the base up, and bend the tips in order to give them a crescent shape.
Place them onto trays and store into the proofer room at 24-26°C with relative humidity of the 70%.
When risen, brush the croissants with beaten egg and bake in a deck oven at 180-200°C for 17-20 minutes.
Out of the oven, brush the warm croissant with the hot sugar syrup to enrich them with shiny gloss and extra taste.
