  • Author: Kimberly
  • Total Time: 2 hours 50 min
  • Yield: 10 1x

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • baking pan (I used a 28x8cm / 11”x3” loaf pan)
  • large bowl
  • measuring cup
  • plastic wrap (or kitchen towel)
  • small bowl
  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • garlic press
  • rolling pin

Ingredients

Units Scale

DOUGH

  • 600 grams all-purpose flour
  • 42 grams fresh yeast
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 50 milliliters oil of your choice (I used cold-pressed rapeseed oil)
  • 350 milliliters lukewarm water

FILLING

  • 5 garlic cloves
  • 30 grams fresh herbs (I used thyme, oregano, basil, rosemary & parsley)
  • 125 grams soft butter
  • salt & pepper

Instructions

  1. For the dough, mix flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. In a measuring cup, measure out the lukewarm water, crumble in the fresh yeast, and stir until the yeast dissolves. Add the yeast water and olive oil to the flour-sugar-salt mixture and mix until a sticky dough forms. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a damp towel and set aside for 10 minutes.
  2. With a wet hand, grab one side of the dough, lift it up, and fold it into the middle. Repeat with the other three sides. Let the dough rest for another 10 minutes, then repeat the folding process and let the dough rise, covered, for 1 hour.
  3. Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Finely chop the herbs and peel the garlic cloves, then either finely chop them or use a garlic press. In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, herbs, garlic, salt, and pepper into a paste and set aside (do not refrigerate, the butter should remain spreadable). Prepare the baking pan by either greasing it with a bit of butter or lining it with parchment paper, and set aside.
  4. After the dough has risen for an hour, perform one final round of folding and let it rise, covered, for another hour.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a clean, lightly floured surface and roll it out into a rectangle about 1/2” thick. Spread the butter-garlic-herb paste evenly over the dough. Cut the dough into strips about 8cm / 3” wide. Fold each strip like an accordion and place them upright in the baking pan with the buttered side facing up. Repeat with all the strips, pressing the dough snugly into the pan. Preheat the oven to 200°C / 392°F. Bake the dough for about 30 minutes. Serve warm or let cool. And now enjoy this piece of happiness 🙂

  • Author: Kimberly
  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 1x

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • 2 small pots
  • medium glass or aluminum bowl
  • whisk
  • spatula
  • sharp knife
  • cutting board

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 150 milliliters heavy-cream
  • 150 milliliters whole-fat milk
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 50 grams brown sugar
  • 1 vanilla bean
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Pour the cream and milk into a pot. Slice the vanilla bean lengthwise, scrape out the seeds, and add both the seeds and the bean to the pot with the cream and milk. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then set aside.
  2. Meanwhile, fill another pot halfway with water and bring it to a simmer.
  3. Separate the eggs and place the yolks in a medium glass or aluminum bowl. Add the brown sugar and salt, then whisk until smooth. The egg whites aren’t needed for this recipe, but you can use them to make delicious meringue.
  4. Remove the pot with the water from the heat and place the bowl with the egg-sugar mixture on top. The bottom of the bowl should not touch the water. Gradually add the hot cream to the egg-sugar mixture, whisking constantly. If you’re doing this alone, add a few tablespoons at a time and whisk quickly, repeating until about 3/4 of the cream is incorporated. This slow addition prevents the egg yolks from curdling by gently warming them. When most of the cream is added, pour in the rest and whisk.
  5. Place the pot with the bowl back on the stove over medium-high heat and switch from the whisk to a spatula. The spatula incorporates less air, preventing the sauce from becoming foamy. Stir the mixture with the spatula until it thickens, about 10 minutes, or until it reaches 75°-79°C (167°-174°F).
  6. To check if the sauce is ready, you can use a simple trick known as „coating the back of a spoon“ or as we say in Germany „pull off to the rose“. Dip a wooden spoon into the sauce and blow on the back of the spoon. If you see a pattern that resembles rose petals, the sauce is ready. A nice visual, right? So when you see this, remove the sauce from the heat. You can serve it now warm or let it cool. Enjoy this piece of happiness 🙂

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • box grater
  • medium-sized bowl
  • glass or small bowl
  • dough scraper / spatula
  • round cutter
  • pastry brush

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 300 grams all-purpose flour
  • 35 grams white sugar
  • 4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 90 grams butter
  • 1 egg
  • 160 milliliters milk
  • 2 tbsp milk for brushing

Instructions

PREPARATIONS

  • Place the butter in the freezer for 15 minutes.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Preheat the oven to 200°C/392°F.

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. In a medium-sized bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Grate the cold butter into the dry ingredients using a box grater.
  2. In a glass, whisk together the milk and egg and add to the other ingredients. Stir with a spoon until the mixture just comes together. Then, place the dough onto a clean work surface and fold it a few times with a dough scraper or a spatula, so that the dough comes together. It’s important not to use your hands for this, as the butter will soften too much, causing the dough to spread out during baking.
  3. Roll the dough into a rectangle about 30×20 cm and cut as many scones as possible using a round cutter. Fold the dough again and continue cutting out scones until all the dough is used. If you don’t have a cutter, you can also cut the dough into triangles. This amount of dough makes about 10 scones.
  4. Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet, spaced a little apart. Pour 2 tablespoons of milk into the glass and use the brush to spread it over the scones.
  5. Bake the scones in the oven for about 12 minutes. Then remove from the oven and enjoy immediately or let cool.
