Step-by-step recipe with photos

Prepare and weigh the required ingredients.

Pour milk and water into a saucepan, add butter cut into small cubes, a pinch of salt and sugar.

Place the pan on the heat and, stirring occasionally, bring the liquid to a vigorous boil.
Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon so that the liquid in the pan is in radial motion.

Add all the flour at once.

And stir quickly with a wooden spoon until a compacted mass begins to form on the bottom of the pan.

Continue cooking the dough for about 4-5 minutes (reducing the heat to medium or low) until the dough is cooked and a dough ball has formed on the bottom of the pan, just pulling away from the walls and bottom of the pan.
With all this, the bottom of the pan will be covered with a crust, which indicates that the dough has dried perfectly.
Remove the pan from the heat and transfer the dough to a large clean bowl or mixer bowl.

Cool the dough for 1-2 minutes, stirring with a wooden spatula or using a mixer with a “guitar” attachment.
Break eggs (225 g) into a large bowl and mix with a whisk.
Add the eggs to the dough in 3-4 additions, mixing well each time.
Dough after adding the first part of the eggs.

Add some more eggs and mix.

In another 1-2 steps, add the remaining eggs and mix the dough until all the eggs are absorbed.

The finished dough should be shiny, well kneaded and homogeneous, and should slowly slide off the spatula like a wide, heavy ribbon (triangle).

Press the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper in any shapes you desire.

Advice

Choux pastry products can be frozen. Place the eclairs or shu on parchment, put the baking sheet with the eclairs in the freezer and let them freeze one hundred percent. After this, transfer the eclairs into a bag and store in the freezer. When you need fresh baked goods, place the frozen eclairs on a baking sheet and bake as usual, without defrosting them beforehand. With this convenient method, you will always have the freshest eclairs on your table.

You can bake choux pastry products using several methods:
1. In an oven preheated to 190°C for about 30-35 minutes (open the oven door slightly and secure it so that it does not lock).
2. In an oven preheated to 170-200°C for about 20 minutes until golden brown, then reduce the temperature to 150-160°C and dry for 10-15 minutes (the oven door must be closed).
The finished products are light, dry (without drops of water), have a wonderful golden color, and do not lose their shape after being removed from the oven.
Eclairs, shu, profiteroles are filled with cream using a pastry bag with a nozzle of the appropriate diameter.
Choux pastry products can be filled with both sweet creams and savory innards.

Bon appetit!

  • vanilla sugar - 1 packet.
  • caramel - 50 gr.

Step by step photos of the recipe

1. Prepare the choux pastry. To prevent the dough from burning, it is better to use a pan with a thick bottom.

2. I combine milk, water, salt, sugar, butter and bring the mixture to a boil on the stove.

3. And then I immediately add all the flour to the boiling mixture. Mixing well, I brew the dough. At this point, you can remove the pan from the stove or reduce the heat to low.

4. This is how the dough should turn out. Homogeneous, perfectly mixed.

5. I return it to the stove or over medium-low heat and continue to brew the dough for another 3-4 minutes until a velvety crust appears on the bottom of the pan.

6. And add eggs one at a time. Mix well each time. At first, the mass will split into pieces, nothing terrible, this is normal, keep kneading.

7. In the end, the dough should look like this. It is not liquid, and not very thick.

8. I immediately place it in a pastry bag (it will be more convenient for me to pipet) and put it in the refrigerator until it has cooled completely.

9. I’ll pipe the cakes using this attachment.

10. When jigging, I will use 2 bags. Since the dough after cooling is quite dense, one bag may not hold it. This is my stock one, used, so to speak:) it remains unstained and can be used in the future.

11. I put the bag into the bag and put out the cakes.

12. It is better to do this at a distance of 4-5 cm from each other. Since during baking the cakes will expand and grow and they should not be allowed to touch together.

13. If there are sharp ends, you can smooth them out by moistening your finger with water.

14. And if you wish, you can sprinkle the cakes with sweet powder for a golden and beautiful crust!

15. And I send the cakes to a preheated oven at 170 degrees for 25 minutes, then lower the temperature to 150 and bake for another 15 minutes. Do not open the door during baking. My oven roasts like crazy, at 180 degrees everything in it is on fire. If yours is “adequate”, then it is best to bake at 190 and then at 170 degrees. These cakes love high temperatures; otherwise they simply won’t rise.

16. This baking mode will allow us to achieve a golden brown crust and emptiness inside. And the brownies won't fall off when you take them out of the oven!

17. On the ugliest one, I’ll show you what they look like inside. This is the result you need to achieve!

18. If there are still any partitions left here and there, you can simply remove them.

19. And the cream can be used in its entirety. Traditional custard, butter, protein, cream cheese. Everything here is optional and available. This time I will use Charlotte cream. In a saucepan, combine the egg, salt, vanillin, and sugar. I stir and add milk. Place on the stove and cook until slightly thickened over medium heat. This took me about 10 minutes. In this cream, the egg-milk mass will be quite watery, not like custard. I'm cooling it down. And when the egg-milk mass has cooled, beat the softened butter until fluffy and lightly whitened. Be careful not to overbeat. And then in several passes I combine both masses. At the end I add cognac. I beat until smooth and the cream is ready. The most detailed recipe was on the website (link https://www.koolinar.ru/recipe/view/152915) if you are curious, please.

20. And also, depending on availability and desire, you can add some other layer. This could be melted chocolate or ganache, jam, preserves, confiture. I decided to add more salted caramel. I already had the recipe on the website (link https://www.koolinar.ru/recipe/view/151478) If anyone is interested, take a look!

21. You can fill the cakes using any method. I'll cut off the top and fill it like Shu cakes. You can fill them using the closed method without opening the top.

22. This is such a beautiful hat.

23. Or you can cut off the top one hundred percent and leave them open!!

24. And it’s better to put the cakes in the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes to stabilize the cream.

25. If desired, decorate with either sweet powder or cocoa.

26. But these cakes are made in sections. Delicate dough, fragrant vanilla cream and subtle notes of salted caramel. You can look at this beauty endlessly. Or better yet, eat it :) I hope you liked the recipe.
