This way, in this online cooking  course, Daniel Álvarez shares his skills to make different creations with the same dough. For example, with the croissant dough, you will be able to make pain au chocolat, a cream knot, and carrés aux Pommes (square-shaped apple pie) or, with the flaky brioche dough you will achieve creative and aesthetic recipes like the almudevar braid, bretzels or a banana and toffee schnecken.

The course was very interesting

The course helped me understand interesting techniques and there are things that made me think differently in the world of baking. Despite this, it is recommended to give more techniques on topics related to different ways of designing pastries Thank you, it was interesting and challenging and the road to learning is still long for me
