Classic Puffs Recipe (3 Ways) by Chef Shaun 🇹🇹 Foodie Nation

Pâte à choux, also known as choux pastry, is a versatile pastry dough with French origins. The term “choux” means cabbage in French, and the pastry earned its name due to its resemblance to small cabbages when baked. One distinctive characteristic of pâte à choux is its high moisture content, which creates steam during baking, causing the pastry to puff up and form a hollow center.
Pâte à choux is the foundation for various classic French pastries, including éclairs and cream puffs. Its light and airy texture makes it a popular choice for both sweet and savory applications in the culinary world.
