Story time; So I was in a Tim Hortons the other day (October 8th 2021) and I was sitting down eating lunch with my family. We were seated near the front counter and I was facing said counter. An older gentleman was taking his turn to order. He ordered a coffee and than turned towards the baked goods display case and without pointing at what he wanted or reading the labels, said with full confidence: "I'll take one of those Hot dog bun lookin' things that you dipped in chocolate and the cream inside it." I nearly choked on my drink as I immediately realized this man wanted an éclair. Seeing this video in my recommendations reminded me of it so I thought I'd share.

Trivia: bakeries in France usually fill the éclairs with a custard matching the decoration. Two most common versions are chocolate and coffee éclairs, but i wish to find one with extra flavors (i bet living in a big town like Paris would make it easier to find a shop specialized only in éclairs) Pistacchio éclair would be something to die for

[@tammiemartinez6485]

I just made a pistachio pastry cream yesterday. Now I'm on the hunt for the best Eclair recipe I can find. That pastry cream is delicious 😋 Had two spoonfuls, you know. To make sure it's tasty, lol, then had to tell myself to leave it alone. It was difficult but I pulled through, lol. Can't wait until tonight. Dessert is going to be so sweet... 😋

It was really disappointing when I discovered that most eclairs in the US are stuffed with cream instead of custard

[@corazondemelon7308]

I don’t even know what custard is

[@WobblesandBean]

That's why I don't eat eclairs in the US. They don't even know how to make panna cotta. They use milk! It's literally in the name, cooked cream! CREAM, not milk!

You do great work, but I've got a few tricks after 15 years of cakes, candy and pastry: get a bismark tip, use parchment cone-bags and ditch the coupler. Wilton bags stretch and pop the tips out, use ateco, ck or hygo brand disposables and you don't need couplers. The *only* time you need them is when you're piping different colors and only have one tip - in which case cut your parchment bag to shape *or* buy more tips as they practically cost as much as couplers. Also a better way to melt chocolate is to preheat your oven to 'warm', or it''s lowest setting, and turn it off - set a ceramic/glass bowl of chocolate in there and stir after 10 min. Stir every minute until evenly melted (should only take another couple stirs). Ovens are dry and chocolate melts thinner, also if you're dealing with tempered chocolate or coveture than you can't overheat it that way. Plus if you're dipping things in chocolate you can have two bowls in there and as one starts to set up you can swap it out for the warmer one, giving all your confections an even shiny coat.

[@greenspace3279]

I know it’s an entirely different kind of pastry, but I would love to see Babish show how to make traditional youtiao! I spent some time when I was young living in China, and I remember eating these delicate savoury pastries and loving them! They’re kind of an early form of donut, but they’re done in a unique and fun way that might be interesting to explore. :)

Probably Osmium, seeing as that's one of if not the densest material on the periodic table. Can't remember if it's radioactive though, so have fun with that

Realistically, water. It's not the densest but you already have a really tall stack in the ocean.

assuming the eclair is about 2x2 inch by 4 inch, the eclair would have a density of 35 tonnes per cubic meter, making it the densest material on earth, compared to the densest metal osmium which is only 22 tonnes/m^3

LifeProTip: when pouring from one container to another (especially one-handed like we saw him doing here) & you know there's a high chance of drippage, don't hold the pouring-container over the middle of the pouree-container - instead, hold it closer to 2/3 of the way across to the other side of the pouree-container's edge from the pourer-container (so in the case here, hold the pourer-container 2/3 of the way to the right-side edge of the pouree-container). While this doesn't prevent you from dribbling down the side+bottom of the pourer-container, it does prevent you from wasting the material because the dribblings will still land in the pouree-container.

New pregnancy craving: eclairs. Thank goodness there's a pastry shop not five minutes from my house that has delicious eclairs

[@Qwertylol]

My mom had cream puff pregnancy cravings when she was pregnant with my sister. Her doctor told her that she'd get my mom cream puffs from a popular local bakery where the cream puffs were really hard to get after she birthed my sister. After my sister was born, the doctor got her the cream puffs, my mom took one bite and her tastebuds said "nope, you're not eating cream puffs ever again". She hasn't eaten a cream puff or eclair since, she says they taste too eggy :(
