Forget dry, tough brioche. Today we’re making the softest, most cloud-like Italian brioche croissants using the professional “Milk Roux” (Tangzhong) technique. No lamination, no stress—just pure softness! 🥐✨
The Secret:
By cooking a small part of the flour and milk first, we create a gel that traps moisture, keeping your brioche fresh and soft for days.
Ingredients:
🥛 The Milk Roux:
– 25g Manitoba Flour
– 125ml Milk
🥣 The Dough:

– 75g Sugar
– 1 Egg + 1 Yolk
– 180ml Milk
– 3g Dry Yeast
– 90g Softened Butter
– 8g Salt
– 1 tsp Vanilla
Baking Info:🔥 180°C / 350°F for 15 minutes.
💡 Pro Tip: Don’t forget the steam hack and the kitchen towel trick shown in the video!
