Preparation
- To prepare the turmeric and orange cookies, place the almonds in a blender and reduce to a powder. Add the flour, sugar, salt, turmeric powder, the grated orange zest, the egg yolk and the cold, cubed butter. Mix all the ingredients together until the dough takes shape.
- Transfer the dough onto a work surface and quickly compact until smooth. Shape into a brick, wrap with cling film and put it in the fridge to rest for approx. 1 hour. After the resting time has elapsed, line two baking trays with baking paper and preheat the oven to 180°C (static) or 160°C (fan) if baking more than one tray at a time.
- Divide the dough into 3 pieces. On a lightly floured surface, roll each piece of dough into sausage-shape of approx. 2 cm diameter. Then cut into pieces of approx. 1 cm. Roll each piece to form a stick, then fold the two ends upwards to give it the classic horseshoe shape. Place on the lined baking tray and bake at the temperature indicated above for 10-12 minutes.
- To check whether the cookies are ready, try moving them gently with your finger. If they move easily without anything sticking to the baking paper, they are cooked. Take the cookies out of the oven and allow them to cool completely.
- In the meantime, finely chop the almonds and set aside. Break up the white chocolate, melt it in a bain-marie or microwave, add the turmeric powder and mix together. Dip the tips of your cookies first into the turmeric chocolate and then into the chopped almonds. Place on a baking paper and leave to dry. The croissant will keep fresh in an airtight box for up to 3 weeks.
