Re: Docking

To prevent excessive puffing on certain pastries, the dough may need to be docked. This can be done by piercing the dough with a fork or by using a commercial docker.

For light docking, pierce the dough at 2" intervals. When minimum puffing is desired (e.g. Napoleon layers), pierce the dough at 1/4" intervals.
