Cooking instruction summary:

In a large, deep mixing bowl pour in lukewarm milk. Stir in the sugar, 2 tablespoons of flour, and the yeast. Let stand for ten minutes. Add in the baking powder, salt, vegetable oil, egg whites, and 6 cups of flour. Stir with a wooden spoon until the mixture is well incorporated, you may need to get your hands in there towards the end, and then bring the dough to a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough for 10 minutes. Put the dough in a large bowl, cover it, and let it stand for one hour. Preheat oven at 375. Bring the dough back to your working area and knead it again for another 5 minutes. You want to make sure that all those air bubbles are out. Form the dough into a log and cut it into 5 or 6 equal pieces. Take one piece (cover the rest with a kitchen towel), and roll it out to a size as big as a medium pizza. With a knife, cut the rolled out dough into 8 equal slices. Beginning at the widest point of the slice start rolling it towards the narrowest point. Place the croissants on a lightly greased baking sheet. Continue to do this with the rest of the dough. In a small mixing bowl, whisk the 4 egg yolks. Brush each croissant with the egg yolk. Top each croissant with sesame seeds. Put 4 or 5 small pieces of margarine throughout the baking sheet. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Cover with a kitchen towel while they are cooling. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
