How to Master Sweet and Savory Choux | America's Test Kitchen Full Episode (S23 E19)
Recipes in this Video
Ingredients
- ●1 cup all-purpose flour
- ●1/2 cup unsalted butter
- ●1/2 cup water
- ●1/4 tsp salt
- ●4 large eggs
- ●1/2 cup granulated sugar
- ●1/4 cup brown sugar
- ●1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- ●1/4 tsp baking powder
- ●1/4 cup cocoa powder (for chocolate craquelin)
Instructions
- 1Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- 2In a saucepan, combine water, butter, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
- 3Once boiling, remove from heat and add the flour all at once. Stir vigorously until the mixture forms a ball and pulls away from the sides of the pan.
- 4Allow the dough to cool for a few minutes, then add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the dough is smooth and glossy.
- 5Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip.
- 6On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, pipe small mounds of dough, about 1.5 inches in diameter, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- 7For the craquelin, mix the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and softened butter in a bowl until creamy. Add flour and cocoa powder (if making chocolate) and mix until a dough forms.
- 8Roll the craquelin dough between two sheets of parchment paper to about 1/8 inch thick and cut out circles to place on top of the piped choux.
- 9Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the choux are puffed and golden brown. Do not open the oven door during baking.
- 10Remove from the oven and let cool completely before filling with your choice of cream or custard.
Equipment
Gnocchi à la Parisienne is a classic French dish that showcases the versatility of gnocchi, originally an Italian staple. This version is made with a choux pastry base, creating a lighter texture. Traditionally served as a main dish, it reflects the French culinary tradition of elevating simple ingredients into refined dishes. Today, it's enjoyed in various forms, with different cheeses and herbs, and is a favorite in French bistros.
