Critical Success Points

  • First simple turn of the puff pastry
  • Two double turns without cold rest
  • Tempering the milk‑egg‑starch mixture for the pastry cream
  • Incorporation of the pastry cream into the frangipane
  • Sealing the galette edges without piercing the dough
  • Immediate oven temperature reduction after placing in the oven

Safety Warnings

  • Be careful of splashing boiling milk
  • Use gloves or a towel to handle the very cold dough to avoid frostbite
  • Handle the knife or cutter carefully to avoid cuts
  • Wear kitchen gloves when handling the very cold butter
