- It took over 48 hours, but I finally took up the challenge of making croissants completely by hand, with a little (a lot) of help from croissant expert Chef Dominique Ansel.

i will get better!!!! 😤 but thank you again to chef dominique for his patience, truly
You did great!
Can’t imagine how much energy you actually put into this whole process, with all the nerves, errors and trials, and a lot of muscle work. How were your arms after this experience? 😸
You did great Inga. If you roll the final dough thinner before cutting, they won't fall over.
You may also want to check out Claire Saffitz croissant video she did with NYT, that is the recipe I use and they always turn out great.
I'm platonically in love with both your energy, your curiosity and your perseverance. This is how I wish everyone felt about food.
The more I watch you, the more I fall inlove with you. 😍
I can see croissants becoming Inga's challenge as omurice is Andrew's!
Blows my mind that Dominique Ansel is literally a WORLD CLASS pastry chef but he is still so humble and pleasant to work with. Absolutely love that man and Inga too ☺️
Everyone starts somewhere, and the great ones never forget that.
your mind must be easily blown
This was low key so wholesome. Chef Dominique just seems like such a sweet man. He's so supportive and encouraging. Like being taught to bake by a proud dad who just happens to be a world class chef lol. Bless him.
The chef is so attentive and his accent is so pleasant to hear. I think I could hear him all day
Agreed somebody said he was mean in the comment section. He was communicating with her, giving her advice, smiling and enjoying himself. He’s also French
@@thatgirl9532 I agree. I feel like it’s just French humor. I was living for it on the other hand
@@thatgirl9532 im trying my damn hardest to find this "mean" part in the video? are they even sure we are watching the same vid
love how the chef messed up the butter on purpose for inga. truly a good teacher
you know what else is really good? your pfp ;D
Chef “its good”
Inga “well I followed the recipe”
So cooks/chefs cant take compliments either 😂
I love the character contrast of Inga's anxiousness and Dominique's playfulness. There's a reason why this man is world class, I mean, it takes someone really special and talented to have invented the CRONUT for the world to enjoy.
Inga accidently creating a new croissant, the Rose-Shaped Croissant, Rose-ssants! Great job!
Cronut who? 2022 will be the year of the rosessant.
the chef is so funny and is just a ball of sunshine!! so charismatic.
"Here's my recipe" (5:38)
That looks more like a 3-page Essay on the history of Croissants.
Knowing how Inga really keeps in her all the learnings she acquire everytime, I just know she's gonna nail her next croissant. Can't wait to see it.
Dominique is literally *chef's kiss*
I hope Inga gives us an updated video in a few months, or maybe a year, to see how far she's gotten in making croissants
They say you have to be quick and precise when making croissants. However, for me, you also have to be brave.
It's so technical that every novice bakers (and even some experienced ones) cower in attempting it their first time. This is why I have so much respect for those who just takes the first step regardless of the result.
agree
I don't know why I enjoyed the nervous wreck that you were while making it. But if I was in your place I would be just as nervous as you.
And the chef was just super helpful and I just loved him the way he he guided you with the whole process with a constant smile on his face!
Inga's chaotic wholesome energy is always just what I need to feel a little better.
Also I love how Inga stays so positive and takes constructive criticism with pride. Not everyone can do that!
Chef Angel is legit the best. He needs his own show. He’s so kind and patient yet precise.
Chef making the butter square a ball is the most Chef thing I´ve seen lol
dominique + inga is the combo i didnt know i needed but i love it!
chef Ansel is such a gentle and caring chef.
Okay but honestly this video was genuinely so good
Aight real talk, Inga’s excitement throughout the whole process is so great to watch. Like, we can see the genuine passion there. Awesomesauce
I think your attitude is perfect. You'll get better at it. It reminds me when I was trying to make baguettes at home without any training and the results were ...not a baguette. Anyways, I got somewhat better but there's just so much depth to the knowledge of these artisans that make the beautiful products we eat.
As long as you go at it with the right attitude, you'll eventually get there, especially with top instructions.
I think the fresh levain made the dough rise faster than the poolish would.
Many years ago I lived across the street from a bakery/cafe that made almost only croissants. I kind of thought they were awfully expensive, having seen what you have to go through to make them, they were a bargain. The bakery is long gone and I have never had a croissant as good as those but the look of the Chef's almost makes me want to travel to have his.
Hes a world-class pastry chef yet so humble and funny
Inga make croissants from scratch
*Step one : Grow wheat*
Just noticed that Inga sounds like Vanellope von Schweetz lmao!!
That's all I can hear now xD
You always have the best videos, those look amazing! The 4/10 from Dominique is equivalent to what us mere mortals would rate 10/10.
Chef Dominique is an absolute gem! He only highlights your brilliance, Inga! I hope you can work together more in the future; you're a joy to watch together!!
Also, suuuper proud of you for making croissants. Something I've always been too nervous to try!! 🥰
I was literally talking about making my own croissants yesterday, this was very insightful, thank you 😊
I was thinking about it too. The layering was as much of a pain as I imagined it would be.
literally? you were literally talking about it?
@@Marcel_Audubon ye
@@amandalouise5716 did you literally just type "ye" or did you type it figuratively? I can't quite tell.
@@Marcel_Audubon you’re not being funny, you know that right?
A trick to keep it from collapsing on its side while proofing is to make a 1-inch cut in the middle of the triangle's wide end and tug the wings out a bit so there's a notch you roll over.
Widens the whole thing and creates a small air gap that will ensure more even baking in a conventional oven.
Ahh that makes sense, I was wondering why they did that in some of videos. Ty for explaining! I wanna make them someday and I want to avoid this.
They look so perfect! 🥐
Chef Dominique is so fun to watch. So nice, funny, and attentive.
Croissants are what I want to make the most but are also what I'm scared of the most! Lol! Thank you Inga for showing me that I can learn it too. I had fun watching you!! I think I might try it myself also soon
Inga and croissants, literally two of my favourite things in the world
This was awesome, there are so many videos out there where they come out perfect and you don't really understand where the struggles are. Thanks for making this videoooooooo!
I love croissants, and I have so much respect for you that you did all of that by hand! You did so well for your first try! When I went to france, the bread and the croissants in particular were amazing!! That chef seems awesome too
I love that you can tell how much Inga genuinly loves her job
I think you did great Inga! It definitely seems like an intimidating thing to attempt!
Inga is absolutely GLOWING in this video!!! Hair and makeup is ON POINT
The chef seems so nice and positive! You will mail your next crossaint Inga, I believe in you!
I really like your energy, Inga ❤
This was great! Ugh I love croissants. 🤤🤤
Was actually nice to see not perfect croissants for the first try. Made me feel a lot better with my first try which was simply horrible and inedible. Amazing first try from you.
Definitely impressive 🦋 the first time croissants had a uniquely interesting quality. I think when you try it at home with no one looking over your shoulder will be easier on you.
I never knew how much time and skill went into making croissants!! Can’t wait to see you improve on this, loved the video :)) 🥰❤️
Thank you for sharing 👍 really enjoyed the video 😁
That looks delicious!
You did an amazing job! Croissants are so hard by hand!
Inga! 👨🏻🍳👨🏻🍳👨🏻🍳👨🏻🍳👨🏻🍳 This was very exciting to watch because I'm in French culinary school and I am learning about laminating, and cold butter, and squaring the dough.
Inga is so cute. Legit my fav person 🥺❤️ Be safe out there Inga!
Amazing Inga!👌
A new video from Inga on a Sunday morning?! My day is going to be great.
Woohoo ! Was waiting for this episode
I hope Inga posts the recipe😊💛 we want to make that at home too!
It’s Inga, croissants and that lovely chef… how can some people even dislike the video? *smh*
Omg yay Inga!!! You finally made your own croissants! I'd also love to make my own croissants soon 🤍
love how inga puts all her sincerity into making her food
I made my first croissants yesterday and it’s actually so fun and exciting! Even if you mess up, doing it makes you want to come back and try again. Mine came out much more like brioche, but I still want to do it again and I got a sweet sweet dopamine rush when I saw the final product.
Sounds like it got too warm and the butter was absorbed into the dough. Have you gotten better results since then?
11:39 lol at "DO NOT USE! For BuzzFeed!" written on the parchment next to the butter
I'll eat those croissants! They look delish.
Right! With some preserves and a cup of hot tea! Mmmmmm!
Inga voice is so adorable 🥰
The croissant is to Inga what the omurice is to Andrew😂
Awesome episode!
dominique ansel is always so nice in all the videos!!
I love making croissants! I was very intimidated at first as well, but you just gotta dive in!!
hhhh so excited and interesting！
wanna try once，too！
Soooo proud of you!!! :D you did amazing for your first time haha. I wouldve def messed up and gotten less layering just a blob of dough with butter. I hope you come back again and show how much youve improved! :D
Good job Inga! Can't wait to see more croissants from you 😏
When i was in 2nd year college , our professor taught us how to make croissants 🥐 its a tough pastry to make in my opinion but at the same time, after baking it and seeing the honeycomb texture inside, ITS WORTH IT.. (PS. TBH, it took me and my classmates like a whole week of TRYING and TESTING just to get an acceptable result for our professor.. we even burnt some of the first set of croissants we made so yeah.. 🤣😂)
Crossiants are incredible just like Inga 😍. Also to all the people that panicked about the weirdness between Inga and Alvin turns out y’all overreacted and they seem to be fine. Stress less!
What happened between them?
comparing your handmade croissants to someone who has a machine to roll theirs out to a precise measurement isn't a fair comparison. Great job.
not to be mean or anything, but i kinda loved how imperfect the croissants were, even when inga had all the best stuff and had dominique ansel guiding her, proves to show how difficult they are to make. i have tried them myself and i gotta say, it takes dedication.
it takes trial and error and experience
Metric system!!! I love it!
inga is the cutest person in the worlddd
Always so funny to watch
amazing video. domoniques master class is how I learned to make croissants. his books are great and the art of lamination and all about croissants are great ones as well. one question what books were on the shelf
"I'm gonna do the fold now."
"Go ahead and do it."
That was brutal, Chef.
After watching this I have a lot more appreciation for croissant makers
Been there. Those look great for a first attempt!
I see Inga, I click. I always enjoy her videos! 👋🏼😊
Nice job!
Inga's little sound effect are so cute ʕ´•ᴥ•`ʔ
Wow I am not even 5 mins into the video and I'm no longer ashamed for craving a croissant this morning. Who knew it took this much work. I guess I thought croissants were heaven sent and angel made lol Wow!
As a French person, I have a lot of respect for people who make their own croissants because it would never come to mind here (the time needed is too important whereas it is easy to find good croissants in French cities).
And these ones look delicious!
Inga is a delight as always and the chef is so funny. Inga, your croissants may have come out a little wonky, but they have personality! Now that you've gotten over the intimidation of your first attempt, I'm sure you'll keep trying and keep improving. :)
This makes me almost want to try making some myself... Even though it's a lot of work to put in when I live a block away from the best French bakery in my city
Inga is so cute! Shining brightly in this video!
CHEF must realized that it takes once in a lifetime to taste and experience Inga's croissant
I love croissants!!!
Inga, thank you for the video. Where can I buy fresh yeast?
Well done! A very impressive first time.
that's the most beautiful croissant I have ever seen in my life
My heart sunk to the bottom for Inga when the Chef said: "I give this... 4 out of 10." 😭
I'm honestly impressed how someone can look so good at 6 am. 😊
Inga Lam just the beginning you have a long way take it easy strive to be the best.😁😁😁
My mouth was watering
I think you did a great job for a first timer.... I wouldn't even have reached where you did considering the pressure while a master is to judge👍💐
Inga is now a croissanteer! like the Princess Leia croissant buns at the end. 😎😍🥐🥐🥐
the chef is so kind > w
