Discover the ultimate secret to irresistible burgers: Tangzhong burger buns! These ultra-soft buns, inspired by Japanese tradition, are made with a magical trick: Tangzhong method. By cooking a portion of T45 wheat flour with water or milk, you create a “roux” that locks in moisture, resulting in incredibly tender and light buns. Their soft texture melts in your mouth while staying fresh and perfect longer for your burgers. Taste Christian Gilet’s recipe as soon as possible… for gourmet and perfectly balanced hamburgers!
The new edition of our Bakery and Patisserie Masterclass organized on August 12th & 13th was a huge success! Over two days, more than 30 guests enjoyed a rich and professional learning experience, combining modern techniques, traditional know-how and a scientific approach to better understand raw materials, their interactions, and the best way to work with them… in a studious and convivial atmosphere!
Invented in the first half of the 18th century, the “Baba au rhum” is a great classic of French pastry-making, of which there are several variations. It’s a dessert consisting of a brioche cake drizzled with rum and generally accompanied by chantilly or crème pâtissière, and fresh or candied fruit. What better way to celebrate the start of spring than with a new take on an emblematic French pastry? The classic Baba au rhum becomes Baba aux agrumes (with or without rum)!
