Irish Beer Cheese Puffs with Spring Onion Mascarpone - Food Wishes

While this tasty snack might not be authentically Irish, they feature Irish cheese, Irish beer, and Irish butter, and that’s close enough for me. You can serve them hot, warm, or room temp; hopefully next to the equally delicious spring onion mascarpone spread. Enjoy!

I often make gougeres but have never tried using a liquid other than water. Now my mind is blown by the possibilities!

[@foodwishes]

Mission accomplished. :)

[@PhatTrumpet2]

Same! Every written recipe is either water or milk -- or some combination of the two -- when in reality just about any water-based liquid *within reason* can be used to make pâte à choux. NGL... somewhat embarrassed that I haven't realized this until now.

[@sylviasee7147]

@@PhatTrumpet2 equally intrigued. making them this weekend and going to put some white wine into the liquid

[@johnr797]

@@PhatTrumpet2 I wonder if you could make sweet ones using coffee as the liquid

These cheese puffs look very tasty. The combination with mascarpone and onions is so satisfying. 🧀🤤

The bad news is, I've finally backed myself into a corner, so to speak, with no choice but to go on the diet I've ben avoiding for months. The good news is, this page is bookmarked and after I've hit my target, these will be a great reward/treat. Thanks for everything you do, Chef John. I was already decent in the kitchen, but you've really helped me step up my game. 👍

[@ziziroberts8041]

This recipe is a cholesterol festival. I am watching, and thinking of ways to create a tasty alternative with less fat and calories. It won't be the same, but it will be satisfying. 🌹

[@lenagrows_8971]

Y’all remember balance is key! Treats enjoyed in moderation can help you feel satisfied and keep you from feeling deprived :)

[@a2ndopynyn]

@@lenagrows_8971 Understood, but I'm well over 100 lbs overweight, and since I've NEVER been this heavy in my life, I can't really exercise at all. I can't even walk - my back won't take even 5 - 7 minutes of walking. So I'm doing the original Atkins diet for about a month, to jump start some rapid fat loss. It only allows ~20g carbs per day. Which is why I said this is bookmarked for a nice reward after I've hit my initial goal of losing 50 - 60 lbs. I figure I'll have a cheat day (or three) and then buckle down again to lose the other 50.

[@Maplecook]

I'm in the same boat.

[@palaceofwisdom9448]

@@ziziroberts8041 I'm not a doctor, but I've seen a number of them say that butter, especially Irish/grass fed butter, will not clog your arteries. On the other hand, those same doctors will say it's the carbs in this item that will kill you, so there's that.

The last time I made cream puffs, I was 14. Now I'm 69 and I think Chef John has convinced me I need to try again with these Cheese Puffs!

[@andrewharald88]

Hi

[@andrewharald88]

Ann how are you doing

[@contactjoy4140]

Hi John....Terrific recipes, as usual.... Here's a little suggestion... put your grated cheese into the scoop before scooping the batter... The grated cheese should be stuck to the top of the puff and melt without making a mess on the tray/silicone mat.

[@NBSLYR-oi8rc]

I was thinking of rolling them in the cheese

[@Julia-uh4li]

Both of these suggestions sound great!

[@Crackalacking_Z]

I'm amazed how airy and puffy they got ... just from the beer, which got cooked and all :O

[@mariemccarthy6822]

Hi, Chef John! I love your videos! Thanks!!

[@fannizovinski4024]

Glad to be here. Just found the channel a few hours ago, and loving it already. Best wishes. 😇

[@nancyhahn5998]

I made the puffs! A keeper, the puffs are really tasty. I see why the video suggests to pat the cheese on the dough before baking, the dough is really sticky, I think trying to roll it in cheese will be difficult. I didn't have a scoop, so I used a tablespoon to portion the dough. While the dough was on the spoon I patted on the extra grated cheese then used my finger to slide the dough onto the baking pan. It was slightly less messy! Also I grated a bit of the lemon zest into the marscapone cheese, tasty!

[@carolinemcgovern8059]

I made your vanilla pastry cream for puffs not too long ago and it turns out my family are all about savory fillings😭 even though they agreed that it tasted fantastic. I enjoyed it alone after all that work lol.

[@bhoylhogro5093]

More cream puffs for you to enjoy. I'd call that a win👍

[@Barbie.Boo1961]

Sometimes, it’s good to enjoy our labor of love …… alone, we must pride ourselves with a job well done. 🎊 if you had made a more savory cream puff…. I wonder would it still be a cream puff … or would it be called a savory cream puff ? Never had a savory puff. Only cream puffs. I must live a sheltered life. The 20 lbs I lost I would have gained back. 🤣.

[@palaceofwisdom9448]

@@Barbie.Boo1961 I imagine it's like a savory crepe, or a pot pie crust. Omit whatever sugar normally goes into it and add your savory filling.

In other words, he’s making a savory version of the eclair minus the chocolate sauce… I have seen the scallion cream cheese mix used before as a spread for crackers here in Texas. Pecans bacon sometimes apples ET see is added ranch dressing and cayenne as well.

[@Julia-uh4li]

WOW so many variations. Those sound great. Pecans with bacon, can't go wrong there 😉

[@DaveDaveson]

I would totaly pipe a more finely minced version of that dip into the bottom of the puffs a lá chouxe buns

[@recoil53]

That's what I expected.

[@Bent-Ed]

What about rolling the puffs in cheese before baking rather than topping?. Would that work?

[@reno-koreanfoodlover6569]

You're just amazing

[@cartousse]

Hello chef John, any chance of getting the quantities? I can't find the recipe on your website. Thanks for all the great dishes!

[@thomasladders7481]

Life story here. From New England, mostly Irish. I always related Irish food to Ethiopian...Didn't know it existed.

[@Varulven1988]

Those cheese puffs look great! Quick question though: Your silicon baking parchment always looks so clean, how do you manage that? After a few bakes, mine always gets black spots and such which seem to be incredibly hard/impossible to get rid of during cleaning.

[@MurderMostFowl]

I can’t say mine looks perfectly clean, but I have found that using baking soda and little water/vinegar to make a paste and scrubbing with a toothbrush helps quite a bit.

[@raverboi4203]

Yummy

Could you fill these with the spring onion mix like a savory eclaire?

The beer was Irish. He didn't way it was an Irish dish, just that two ingredients were. John specifically said the method was French.

Wonder how it will taste with a garlic chilli sauce combo.?

[@thisman8056]

Are they served cold?can they be served cold?how to store them?

[@Gayle.M]

With the cheese puffs, instead of adding cheese on top before baking, can you roll them in cheese or would that cause them to be tough and non puffy?

[@notahotshot]

If you gently roll them so the cheese just sticks on the surface if should be no problem.

[@JustinSmith1973]

If you pause at 7:05 the one that Chef John puts back has a face (like a cartoon cloud that's blowing)

[@kathyk479]

What if you rolled these in the grated cheese?

[@MrChit-od9po]

It was between this and pancakes. In this day of age its beer we need to finish off before the big 40 starts.

[@DrZoidberg42]

Can the dough be made the day before and refrigerated? I would like to be able to just throw them in the oven when my company is over.

[@doctormidnight]

If you had just added one thing from Birmingham and a little Radiohead, this would be a great Peaky Blinders episode.

[@Arauge1981]

These looked so good, and then Chef John ate a third of the pan in less than 2 minutes of tasting and I knew they were amazing. I'm going to have to try these. Would they work as well with a wheat beer? I don't like the darker stouts very much.

[@waynegordon2628]

I'd try this with a Bock.

[@a2ndopynyn]

He said it would work with any beer, but why not try it the way he did it the first time? Or at least use a darker beer. I find that even stuff I'm not fond of works well in recipes - for instance, carrots in chicken soup. Don't really like carrots by themselves, but without 'em the soup tastes incomplete. Just a thought.

[@mrskitkatlady]

I want that spread on a warm egg bagel.

[@Julia-uh4li]

OMG Yummmm! 🤤

[@johnneale3105]

Chef John love the recipe but the one you turned round because it had a crack in it has, in my mind, the face of a shocked baby on one side - I cannot unsee that!

[@aureliussDD]

You can find it in the deli section of your grocery store, the section that have prepackaged cheeses and meat, it comes in a tub...not a big one...

[@macsarcule]

Could you have rolled each dough ball in the shredded cheese and then moved them to the baking pan?

[@misslinguinni]

Solid idea!
