17 tips and tricks about the magimix recipe
- Use room temperature eggs. This will allow for better incorporation into the dough and promote the development of an airy texture.
- Be sure to sift the flour before adding it to the magimix. This will prevent lumps and give a lighter consistency to your chouquettes.
- Add a little vanilla extract or citrus zest (such as lemon or orange) to your choux pastry to add an extra fragrant touch.
- To ensure that your chouquettes are crispy, don't hesitate to slightly increase the oven temperature towards the end of baking for a few minutes.
- Do not open the oven during baking, as this could cause the chouquettes to deflate and compromise their rise.
- If you want larger chouquettes, use a wider piping tip when piping them onto the baking sheet.
- If you like intense flavors, add a few drops of orange blossom water or almond extract to your choux pastry.
- To make it easier to shape small mounds on the baking sheet, you can use parchment paper or a non-stick silicone mat.
- If your choux pastry is too runny, add a little more flour in small quantities until you achieve the right consistency. Conversely, if it is too thick, you can incorporate a little warm water.
- To add an extra indulgent touch, lightly dust your chouquettes with powdered sugar just before serving.
- The magimix is ideal for making this simple and foolproof pastry recipe, which is particularly popular for children's snacks. It's delicious.
- To achieve beautiful chouquettes, use a piping bag to make well-rounded and plump choux.
- Furthermore, to ensure they rise well, it is necessary to remove the moisture from the flour and also incorporate the eggs one by one to obtain a homogeneous dough for soft chouquettes.
- Baking is the trickiest part of the chouquette recipe. Regularly check the baking of the chouquettes and open the oven door frequently to release moisture from the oven.
- You can make them with vanilla sugar or drizzle them with caramel to make very indulgent little choux.
- The savory version of these choux is called gougère magimix.
- For a snack, make our magimix milk bread.
