Croissants, or any other layered flaky pastry. Like, there should be a robot for this by now.
Puff pastry. Never, ever try to make puff pastry at home, it takes forevee, vut xosts like $5 at the shops for a big packet of it
There is something better than a robot, it’s the supermarket. Never ever am I making puff pastry again.
Baklava is my answer here. That shit is so good but i don't have the patience to make it at home.
There's a machine doing all the rolling out to specific thicknesses that's used in bakeries
I've always liked morrocan pancakes, which are also a layered type of food, so decided to make them myself one day. So much much work for something that doesn't taste at least half as good as the ones from the bakery... Never again I told myself!
Store bought laminated dough is perfectly fine and freezes well. I don't mind making it because I find it's just a few minutes every so often, but I was lucky enough to learn the technique such that I don't have to think about it. Use case for making your own is you can use a specific flour or butter and fresh baked pastry is the best.
