Seems like a simple thing, I know. But mine had historically been doughy in the middle when the outside was already browned. <\/p>\n\n\n\nIf advice seems questionable, you probably shouldn’t take it….<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The night before Easter I was Googling how to roll a croissant. Seems like a simple thing, I know. But mine had historically been doughy in the middle when the outside was already browned. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a fix, I’d tried loosely rolling them– thinking that more heat could reach the inside; but, ended up with something more crunchy than tender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, I found myself in the family room after everyone had gone to bed researching, “how to roll the perfect croissant.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n
At once, I hit upon a YouTube video of a random lady chef whose instructions were to roll the dough tightly, beginning at the small end of the triangle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I wasn’t convinced. It was different from how I’d ever seen one rolled. And, honestly, they weren’t real pretty. But, if they would be done throughout, I was willing to take her advice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
My youngest was helping prepare the Easter meal & when he saw me beginning to roll the croissants, he was taken aback and kinda giggled at me. “Aren’t you doing that backwards?” he poked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, it was decided we would each roll half of the croissants. I would follow the chef’s instructions, and he would do it “the right way.” Lol<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Needless to say, my son’s croissants looked like masterpieces compared to mine.![\"\ud83e\udd23\"](\"https:\/\/static.xx.fbcdn.net\/images\/emoji.php\/v9\/tab\/1.5\/16\/1f923.png\")
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’m glad the only consequence of biting on her poor advice was a few ugly-looking pieces of bread on the dinner table that day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
When it comes to “life advice,” it’s best taken from those whose example is seemly, whose walk is tested. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Proverbs 24:6 tells us that by wise counsel we can wage a successful fight, and that with a multitude of counsellors we find safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, let’s seek out seasoned, Godly people who love us & share our problems with THEM. Not only will we feel relief in letting them help shoulder the burden; but, we’ll likely receive some wise words of advice and a prayer partner to boot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Needless to say, I won’t be subscribing to that chef’s YouTube channel.![\"\ud83d\ude09\"](\"https:\/\/static.xx.fbcdn.net\/images\/emoji.php\/v9\/tb0\/1.5\/16\/1f609.png\")
And come the next holiday dinner, I’m sure to have perfected my croissant rolling via some videos by Ina, Giada & other food experts who have a reputation of excellence….![\"\ud83e\udd50\"](\"https:\/\/static.xx.fbcdn.net\/images\/emoji.php\/v9\/t5\/1.5\/16\/1f950.png\")
