Erwan is my brother in law, and I work at the bakery from time to time to help them. Let me tell you that these guys are the definition of HARD WORKERS! They created Utopie from scratch, working 16+ hours a day, 7 days a week... This guys are real titans. Today they have the success they deserve and I'm so glad and happy for them. They've won the TV show "Best Bakery of France" not only because they deserved it but also because they are true passionate and they give everything they have in their job. I'm glad you featured them on your channel Alex! Guys if you swing by Paris, come to Utopie, you won't regret it !!!!!

But yeah the first time I drove a manual transmission RHD van was in across London from Canning Town to our hostel near Picadilly and that was madness because we had no GPS and only a few useless touristy maps. I don't have a problem driving a manual since all but one of my cars were a stick.

@@Engineer_Heathen, as they mentioned, it's so the butter spreads all the way through to the edges of the dough. It seems so obvious in hindsight. If you don't cut the slits, the dough will fully enclose the butter, but if you cut the dough, then you get three discrete sheets one on top of another: dough, butter and then dough again.

This is the series I've been waiting for! Thank you for doing this. 💙 I think that what ruins croissant is temperature. It's a very important factor in keeping the layers apart from each other when laminating the dough. Most recipes online do not discuss these matters (maybe they're assuming everyone has cool room temperature). For the home bakers living in tropical countries, laminating dough and working with anything with high butter content is a real challenge. It's a mess, you'll see melting butter everywhere. Alex, I hope you discuss temperatures as well so people in the tropics can at least try to regulate the temperature of their butter, dough, and working area.

Well, bakers ≠ chefs. Bakers don't deal with as much time pressure because they're the one deciding how many items available for the day. If they're just making 200 croissants, they're just making that many. If it's all sold out, it's sold out. So they have expectation how much work they're going to do for the day. For chef however, food should be made only right after the guests ordered. So there will be time pressure, on top of making something perfect. So it makes sense that chefs tend to be more anxious and easily triggered in the kitchen.

Quick English lesson for Alex: When to use a or an is not necessarily determined by whether or not a word starts with a vowel. It is a good rule of thumb, but we never us "an" before a word that starts with a 'y' sound even if the word does not start with a y. For example, we would say "a European" or "a Utopian" or "a unique and wonderful French guy cooking". Salue =)

But then i remembered that you guys pronounce Europe like "jurop" instead of how its written. Well that's what happens when you learn English from reading books (i was rarely allowed to watch tv). You learn to pronounce the words as if they would be in your own language (in my case Finnish).

Ahah right so we say '' turning '' instead of ''folding'' because it's not after the manipulation itself but the marble table we work on, which is called a '' turn ''. Right. Don't ask. 🤩

I learned french a long time ago and i find l'accent québécois very beautiful and really hard to mimic. I used to pronounce a few words in québécois in front of my professors in college so i would be seemed classy :)

Je suis si heureuse d'entendre que les gens aiment l'accent québécois ! Je me souviens d'avoir été très timide quand j'ai voyagé en France.

Maybe you can start a series on how to make the perfect macaron? Maybe visit Pierre Hermes, Ladurée or a smaller house along the way? I would loooove that.

That looked amazing. Croissants are my favorite pastry/bread. I remember making them in school, the taste and flavor was unlike anything I had ever bought before.

Amazing video Alex. This is your best one yet. I've voting for you, and it is well deserved, because no one else on KZfaq is making videos of this quality. I've watched more videos and documentaries about food and cooking than you can count, and this video ranks right up there with the very best of them.

Excellent video, Alex! You are so courageous to get right in there with the pros and give it a try. I will never be making my own croissants but now I will appreciate how much work they are! I look forward to your croissant problem-solving videos.

Hi, Alex! I have loved your channel for about 3 years--I finally joined this afternoon. I'm in Paris for 6 weeks (in the 7th) and plan to have a croissant at each of the boulangeries you mentioned in your videos. Tomorrow morning I'll start with Utopie, then I'll go to the Marché des Enfants Rouges. It'll be a wonderful foodie day!
