@exiledtobronze8694 3 месяца назад

Im a pastry chef wnd we actually do this exact thing in the bakery i work for. It adds such a good texture to it and we even flavor ours to match the pastry cream flavor inside. 10/10 worth doing. Side note i see comments talking about it: WEIGH EVERYTHING this recipe is very sensitive to its moisture content. The exact amounts matter i screwed it up many times. Weigh ingredients alwaus when baking IMO but very specifically with this. Use chat GPT to convert measurements for you works like a charm. Ask "can you convert these to grams" and just paste it in.

Thanks for the memory Dan! There was a Helm's Bakery here in southern California that used to come around in their bakery truck/van which had like 8 foot drawers that came out of the rear doors. The driver would slowly pull that drawer out exposing all the goodies inside, donuts, bread, and a host of other baked goods. But, my favorite then, and now, was the cream puffs! I have never had a cream puff better than from that truck, and this was back in the 1960's. The closest I came to these was baking them at home, but never quite got the exact flavor, I'll have to try again. I do know the filling, unlike this recipe, was much more whipped creamlike, but not pure whipped cream. 👍😎✌🗽

I've been using Lan Lam's technique for piping the pate choux on parchment paper. I'm looking forward to trying Dan's technique of flour and oil spray instead because I've misfired before and didn't leave enough room for 24 using Lan Lam's technique and I feel the biscuit cutter plus flour is more my speed for visual / spatial (plus the bonus of not having parchment paper to throw away at the end of the process). Can't wait to make these.

Would a silicone baking mat suffice or is spray and flour really necessary?

@sandrah7512 3 месяца назад

You don't have to use that method, but using the biscuit cutter to mark circles in the flour was a simple way to create a guide for piping the choux. The silicone mat may also prevent the bottoms of the pastries from crisping up as they would on the floured pan.

How can you put hot dough in a plastic food processor?

@sandrah7512 3 месяца назад

As soon as the dough is added, it's spun in the food processor to cool it down. But at 170-180°F, it's not all that much hotter than a dishwasher and the food processor's bowl (and other parts) are dishwasher safe. If it can linger in a hot, wet steamy dishwasher for a full cycle, it can stand a few seconds of hot-off-the stove dough.

@kikilalalala-hl2dv 3 месяца назад

Looks delicious. Why are you using the food processor instead of a stand mixer? How big are your eggs in weight? How much fat is in your butter? And how long ahead can you prep them?

@sandrah7512 3 месяца назад

1. Deputy Food Editor Andrea Geary, who developed this recipe for Cook's Illustrated and ATK, said the food processor was speedier - you could use a stand mixer but it'll take a bit longer to incorporate the eggs. 2. The eggs are size large - 2 oz/57 g. 3. ATK didn't specify which brand of butter they used, but all the unsalted sweet cream butters they reviewed in their last taste test were 11 g per 1 tablespoon/14 g serving. 4. Andrea says the pastries are best eaten up to 2 hours after filling. They will keep for about 3 days, but they will lose their crispness. Andrea also said you could probably bake the unfilled shells about 2 days ahead and re-crisp them before filling, but if you attempt to freeze them, the craquelin tends to flake off so she does not recommend freezing them.

@Saskia-ww2gq 3 месяца назад

as a seasoned pastry chef will venture to say this is too far removed from the core competency elements predicated upon ones own local periodic table in each kitchen. working with chocolate for example requires a meat-locker environment in order to keep everything from melting before anything happens at all. choux dough is exponentially treacherous depending upon the room or table working from. baking & pastry is far more challenging than this well meaning demonstration folks, save your expensive ingredients & make something sensible to our place as well as budgets called apple pie or brownies the same way our elders have here. fancy test kitchens are nice to watch but personally would encourage a simple meringue if urged to play with eggs that way. every kitchen should maintain the kiss method in terms of kissing the chef sure but every dime is crucial as well as sin of potential gluttony so K = keep I - it S = simple S = Sweetheart in the kitchen & in life ~xoxo

@minutebooks3245 3 месяца назад

The pastry cream recipe is garbage. I try to be meticulous when baking since little things make a difference. A sample of this and you can sort of taste flour. It is clearly too heavy. It is not nearly flavorful enough and I doubled the vanilla (I often do). Not really enough sugar to make it taste like a dessert. Could be that I am new to this recipe but if you have to make something a dozen times to get it to come out right, it just isn't a good recipe. America's Test Kitchen being the gold standard of cooking took a hit in my view. I made a batch, tasted it and threw it all out.

@sandrah7512 3 месяца назад

Traditionally, plastic wraps were made with PVC or PVDC and plasticizers which had the potential to migrate into warm, fatty foods like puddings or pastry cream they came into contact with. Health concerns associated with these components and the plasticizers led many manufacturers to switch to polyethylene which requires no plasticizers (but with a loss of some clinginess). While there's no evidence that newer formulations of plastic wrap leach potentially harmful compounds into food, it's a good idea to keep them at least an inch away from the food surface.
