500 grams of T65 flour (t65 is a flour for Bakers)
300 grams of water
20 grams of dry Yeast
10 grams of salt (be careful with the salt dosage)
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79336004


Mix those ingredients during 10 minutes until you obtain a past, not sticky be careful, and then you let it rest 15 minutes.

You pick up the past you separate it in 3 loafs
With your hand you make 3 round balls
You take this 3 balls you put them under a DRY towel you let them 10 minutes like this

You heat up your oven at 240 degrée Celsius
You put a little olive oil on the plate, so the bread doesn't stick to the plate when it cooks

You take a cooking brush you put some water on it and you pass it on the loads

You put it 20-25 minutes in the oven

Merci Alexandre !

 Quoting: Sourdough Starter 77958172


Helloooooooo folks!!!!!
Here's the recipe of the pain au chocolat !

The recipe dosages is for 6 pains au chocolat, I assumed 6 is enough for a family!

250 grams of T55 corn flour

250 grams of T45 groats flour

250 grams of butter

300 milliliters of water

50 grams of sugar (be precise)

10 grams of salt (be VERY precise)

50 grams of dark chocolate

15 grams of baker yeast ( dry it's OK)

In your bowl mix the salt, sugar, yeast, milk and the flours.
Mix it until you obtain a ball. Put a plastic film on your bowl and put it in the fridge for 2 hours MINIMUM.

Put some flour on your table and put your mixed ball on it.
Spread the mixed ball with your rolling pin. Put the butter at the center of your spread past.

Fold back your past like a wallet and make sure the butter remains at the center of your "wallet". It must form a rectangle.

Flatten your rectangle so the butter is integrated in the past and fold back the past again like a wallet. Let it in the fridge 15 minutes minimum.

Once you have let your "wallets" in the fridge, cut the chocolate into strips. Place 2 strips of chocolate per "wallet".

Place your chocolate wallets on your baking sheet, put a plastic film on them, put them in an ambient temperature and let them swell 20 minutes or more if you can.

During this time, warm up your oven at 180 degrees celsius

Once your pains au chocolat have well swollen, brown them with a beaten egg.


Put them in your oven for 15 or 20 minutes until they are golden colored.

Then bon appétit My folks and thanks Alexandre!!

Yes some people have issues with gluten or they have digestive problems because of a certain kind of wheat, I let their doctor guide them in their choice, I don't pretend to have knowledge in medicine, I make a lot of kinds of breads, I let them choose you know.

It's the carbohydrates, not fat, that causes unhealthy cholesterol. I changed my diet to as much protein and fat as I wanted and my cholesterol and blood pressure dropped dramatically within a few months. I still eat starches, but not nearly as much as I used to.

If you have a French store in your city I think you can find good yeast, you can do yeast yourself (I don't because I need yeast in big big quantities it would take too much time and I have a family to take care of) I could try to find you a recipe to make some yeast, would you be OK with this??

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78117343


If you want to make an omelette that feels really lightweight in your mouth, you should add a tiny amount of beer, but I'm not sure how much precisely, I could find this for you if you are willing to test it! Making an omelette doesn't take a lot of time, it wouldn't be a waste of time.
