    I love that you explain the texture and look that signal when you're ready to move on to the next step! Thank you for making such great videos!

    There was a restaurant called Places on the Country Club Plaza KC back in the late 70’s-80’s that had this on their menu. They used an eclair instead. topped with hot fudge, whip cream and shaved almonds. Was the best dessert ever. Thank you for sharing this recipe with us. Brought back very happy memories from years past

      To get eclairs, you just have to pipe out a line instead of a circle. Everything else is pretty much the same.

    I was taught to make the choux dough in a mixer; the melted liquid would be poured into the mixer bowl which contained the dry ingredients….dough would combine and would lose moisture thru using the paddle attachment on slow (steam) and cool to an appropriate temp for piping. When you put your hand under the bowl and it was cool enough to rest your hand, it was ready to transfer to a piping bag. The consistency was exactly like riced mashed potatoes before adding milk. You dipped a finger in water and tapped down the tips from piping the choux.

    Our favorite restaurant for 30 years, The Grand Finale, had this on their menu and called it The Puff. They added shipped cream and surrounded it with fresh berries. My very favorite dessert of all time. They went out of business after covid and I have missed this dessert (and other dishes) ever since. Thank you for showing me how I can make this at home. We can have it again at all our special occasion. ❤

    I first had profiteroles in a cafe across from the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden. Later I went to see Sleeping Beauty. I don't think I can top that, even if I make them myself. It was a long time ago, but a magical day.

    Bridgette and Lan do really well together, great recipes and techniques taught and explained perfectly. Informative and entertaining. The background sheeple with the face-diaper props fidgeting around is annoyingly distracting from otherwise terrific content.

    The french know how to dress up their icecream? pardonne-moi! Scusi, but Profiterole was invented by an ITALIAN chef named Panterelli.

    I love cream puffs but not with ice cream. For me it’s only whipped cream or custard, then the chocolate on top. I’m more traditional.

    Instead of tablespoons, especially for baking, can you add weights (both metric and imperial)?

      With caramelizada or chocolate sauce.
      Heavenly.

    You cannot master paté choux.
    Domain, yes, but choux no.

    It is probably delicious , but i am diabetic so i cannot eat this, but i guess to the good side, i don't have a sweet tooth so i don't crave sweet food , candy, cake , pie , jce cream , etc...

      You can make pate chou without sugar and make savory filled puffs. They're lovely with chicken salad or egg salad. You can use them to make little sandwiches. You can even add a little grated cheese and/or snipped herbs to the batter. They are very versatile and easy.

    • @littlenikke
      @littlenikke 2 місяці тому

      ​@@tessat338yup. A classic is to add shredded gruyere to the dough before piping: called Gougère! They are such a fancy, yet easy appetizer to make.
