  1. The buttery, flaky crescent you eat for breakfast is not as French as you think.

    The story goes back to Austria, where the kipferl (a crescent-shaped pastry) was made centuries before the modern croissant.

    So how did it become a French symbol?

    In the 19th century, Austrian baker August Zang opened a Viennese bakery in Paris, helping popularize Viennese-style pastries. French bakers eventually enhanced the concept, using laminated yeast dough and lots of butter to create the light, flaky pastry we know today.

    🇦🇹 Austria gave it an early ancestor.
    🇫🇷 France made it famous.
    🥐 The rest is delicious history.

  2. Bonjour, notamment aux photographes de la nouvelle lune ;)

    Après le lever de la pleine lune capté entre les tours de la cathédrale, j'ai pensé à capter un très fin croissant de lune au même endroit.
    Je ne me suis jamais vraiment intéressé, pour le moment, à ce stade du cycle lunaire et je me demande à partir de combien de nuits avant ou après la nouvelle lune, le plus fin possible croissant de lune est-il BIEN capté par un boîtier plein format et une focale de 180 mm ? La veille ou le lendemain, c'est bon ? Ou attendre/précéder 2 ou 3 nuits ?

  3. Feeling like a smart #NewYorker #today!
    Often when I'm in Amy's Bread complaining they're sold out of something, they'll say "You can call ahead & reserve" and today I finally did that!
    I'll be bringing pieces of sourdough chocolate bread sticks & pistachio croissant twists (yes, they're as good as they sound) to a cookout in 'Jersey later.

  6. Löysin Alepasta metsämarjacroissantteja. En ehkä syö enää mitään muuta koskaan ikinä.

    Ehkä. Koskaan.

  7. My very first #sourdough #croissant lamination went well, but i used full wheat by accident and let the second rise go for too long. Next time better!
