National Croissant Day
National Croissant Day in the United States honors a flaky pastry that is enjoyed at every meal. Croissants are buttery, crescent-shaped rolls that are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
Laminating the dough is the key to a good croissant. You laminate the dough by folding butter into the batter, resulting in several thin layers of butter and dough. The result is a delectable flaky crust and airy body.
This pastry is surrounded by legend, as is often the case with a common, worldly treat. Crescent-shaped breads have been found around the world for ages, as well as the fact that they are widely distributed. Kipferl, one of these was the oldest of Austria's oldest settlers dating back to the 13th century. This nonlaminated bread is more like a roll.
Credit for the croissant we know today is given to an Austrian military officer, August Zang. He opened a Viennese bakery in Paris in 1839, introducing France to Viennese baking methods.
