Pre-Ferment vs. Classic Dough: Kendall's First Solo Croissant Experiment on the BCU

Kendall Beach, a contributing author on the upcoming Basics With Babish Cookbook, makes her on-camera debut testing two croissant recipes side-by-side: a classic same-day dough (Lauren) and a pre-fermented version (Bernadette). The video covers lamination, butter blocks, folding technique, proofing mistakes, and a blind taste test to see if pre-fermentation actually makes a difference in flavor.
