Mmmmmm, homemade croissants. The last time I attempted them I cheated by chilling them in the freezer for 20 minutes in-between folds (instead of an hour in the fridge). It seemed to work just fine!
OMG I forgot the salt in the dough!

Not as bad as when I forgot the eggs in the batter for Emmett's birthday cake.

I wouldn't have survived the first day!
Fortunately the attendees were all 9 year old boys so they didn't care as long as it had frosting.
It completely fell apart without eggs, of course.

She really is.
I set aside half the dough; I wonder if I can sprinkle salt in between the layers and do a few more folds...
That sounds like it could be extra amazing.
Is the butter salted? Honestly, I could see the croissants being fine minus the added salt, depending on toppings, filling. They're all about the butteriness.
Oh, I've not told you about my new favorite market treat: spinach & feta croissant. It's glorious. And the Pumpkin tries to steal it from me.
I got about an hr reprieve between the migraine painless thing and a massive sinus headache, so that was fun. I'm blaming hormones and the weather being unsettled (chance of thunderstorms tonight. & it was in the 60s.)
From what I've learned from GBBO, salt interferes with dough rising, so salt-less croissants may be even more puffy.
