I love how she describes everything in terms of the dough's emotions. It rises until it's happy, and you stop shaping it before it gets mad at you.

@forteandblues 4 ай бұрын

You have to really get to know your dough before it will speak to you. That’s why I’m a cook not a baker. But I’m still gonna watch and learn what I can.

Being Mexican and a long time Claire fan, this series has just sent my love for Claire and her team over the moon. I love the deep dive to mexican cuisine in all it´s forms. I love that you can tell that the curiosity towards all chefs and their food comes from a very geninue and wholehearted openness to learn, contribute and share with everyone else. Loving this series!!

After watching Claire cooking in the most meticulous mathematically precise way for years, and making brioche specifically, it's fun watching her interact with someone with such a different approach in the most respectful way of their process as a student instead of imposing her ways (which tends to be the way some type A personalities usually are). This was an amazing episode in that sensei!

@Jeffffrey0902 4 ай бұрын

We have something called "墨西哥包" (literally "Mexican buns") here in Hong Kong, and it's a local man who brought the recipe back from Mexico after doing business there. They're a bit different from conchas: the topping is looser, piped onto the dough, and we don't do the stamp, either. In fact we have another baked good called "菠蘿包" (literally "pineapple buns") that have a crunchy cookie topping. It's bumpy and gnarly like pineapples, and looks more like conchas than Mexican buns do.

@katl8825 4 ай бұрын

Bolo bread (and Japanese Melonpan) are both very similar in concept to conchas, from what I can tell. I love it when different cultures come to the same, independent conclusion that something is delicious!

It's so amazing that we could feel that Mariela has a personal relationship with every Conchas she makes. Truly wholehearted pastry making. And I love how Claire is so respectful, I bet as a fellow pastry chef she sees that even more than I can, and it's so pleasant to see.

Comadre is, more or less, the best bakery in Austin and the best conchas I've had. Menu is different every week, but you honestly can't go wrong with anything they produce.

@anam.delcampo8634 4 ай бұрын

This is amazing because for years now I’ve been using Claire’s brioche recipe to make conchas and they turn out amazing. Letting the dough rest overnight gives it so much more flavor and makes it easier to work with ❤
