paddle

When it comes to lamination, the technique used for puff pastry and croissants, Vu said, "It’s best to use cold but malleable butter. Bakers will often beat or quickly paddle the butter in a stand mixer to soften it while it’s still cold."

All I do is paddle around and fall off, but it doesn’t matter.

Rather than participate in the madness of a race, I prefer the calm of my paddle board or a chair on the end of our dock, where I can watch in peace as the boats sail out.

"We're paddling, paddling, paddling, and sometimes you catch a wave. So I really want to ride this one and enjoy the view - because I know how exhausting it is to paddle and miss the wave."

When you paddle out, it’s as though you’ve entered a new world with its own language that might sound like: “Did you see that kook? He snaked me on such a gnarly wave!”
