Croissant (torn, loosely packed)
A croissant is a flaky, buttery French pastry made from a laminated yeasted dough folded repeatedly with butter to create many thin layers. It is eaten on its own, typically for breakfast, or used as a base for sandwiches and bread puddings. Its distinctive crisp, layered texture comes from the lamination process during preparation.
Tearing creates irregular pieces with more trapped air than a finely chopped form of the same ingredient.
