Follow the instructions listed in Basic cookbook for Choux Pastry, but replace with the ingredients list for the Japanese version.

 

1| Place water, butter, salt into TM bowl and cook 2 min 30 sec~5 min/100°C/speed 1. Make sure it has come to a rolling boil before the next step. 

 

2| Add flour and mix 20 sec/speed 4. Remove mixing bowl and set aside to cool for 10 minutes.

 

3| Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper and set aside.

 

4| Place TM bowl back into position and mix speed 5, adding eggs one at a time through the hole in mixing bowl lid onto rotating blades.

After adding the last egg, mix a further 30 sec/speed 5.

 

5| Place pastry mixture into an icing bag and pipe balls onto prepared baking tray, leaving 5 cm space between each.

TIP: using a wet finger, smooth down any bumps on the top of the choux pastries before baking.

 

6| Mist the pastry with water before placing in the oven to prevent it from over drying then bake for 20-25 minutes (200°C) or until golden brown. 

 

7) Turn off oven, open the oven door, leaving it ajar for 10 min to allow pastry to dry. Remove tray from oven and allow choux pastries to cool completely before filling.

Whipped Cream:
