Tip

Wine can be replaced with 1 tbsp kirsch in 30g water for a Swiss twist.
Try adding fresh herbs such as chives or parsley in Step 10 when you grate the Parmesan cheese for a herb version of this dish.

    Made these for Xmas lunch and they were yum. Made the Gourgeres the day before and also the RIcotta. On the day I assembled them and reheated for 10 mins. They were very yummy. Managed to get the Gruyere at a large Coles. I had to look on another recipe for the ricotta as it needed more heating. I found the nutmeg burnt on the bottom of the bowl but didn't effect the flavour. Will be making again - definitely.

    The ricotta cheese is made by heating the milk and adding the vinegar. 1l of milk is one litre!

    Fabulous!

    These were delicious and very popular. I substituted Swiss cheese for gruyere. Some I piped very small and served without filling as a little cheesy puff, others larger and with a piped rosette of filling. I don't think piping is really necessary, and if I pipe next time I need a bigger star nozzle! First time I'd made ricotta too.

    I think the glucose syrup in the ingredients list is a mistake.
