Gargantua ふんわり Choux


Second try
Fail.... Choux did not rise ---> I think i am just going to return to using butter since it tastes better anyway

Recipe made used of vegetable oil and baking powder instead of butter to get a fluff and soft choux.
Result:
- choux a bit too overbaked ( reduce time to 23min)
- Doesn't have a nice buttery flavor ( smells like fried choux)

Coffee choux
- coffee coating contains coffee powder not fully dissolved
- coffee cream to bitter


Choco choux
- choco coating made by melting choco and adding vegetable oil ( melt choco in cream for better taste)
-choco cream- perfect

Plain choux with creme diplomat
Custard creme
- made by beating yolk and sugar to whitish--> add corn starch then milk--> sieve into pan snd start heating at medium heat -->Heat until a lot of thick stuff appear --> remove from heat and use spatula to mix well --> Return to medium flame and use whisk to continuously stir --> When boiled, heat for another 1 min
>> very smooth and soft custard cream
Creme diplamat
1. Beat heavy cream to 60%
2. add into custard cream
