Critical Success Points

  • Do not over‑work the détrempe to avoid excessive gluten development.
  • Strictly observe the cold resting times between each turn.
  • Ensure the butter remains completely sealed inside the dough during the turns.

Safety Warnings

  • Handling very cold butter can make the dough fragile; work on a stable surface.
  • Be careful with the knife or dough cutter to avoid cuts.
