Instructions

  1. 1
    Step image

    First, sift 130 grams of low-gluten flour and set it aside.

  2. 2
    Step image

    We are making choux pastry. Put 200g of water, 100g of unsalted butter, 3g of salt, 20g of granulated sugar, and 3g of vanilla extract together.

  3. 3
    Step image

    Turn on the heat and bring to a boil for 10 seconds, then turn off the heat.

  4. 4
    Step image

    Add 130 grams of cake flour and quickly fold it in with a spatula.

  5. 5
    Step image

    Mix until there are no dry powder particles.

  6. 6
    Step image

    Then turn to the lowest heat and slowly stir-fry the dough with a spatula for about 3 minutes.

  7. 7
    Step image

    Stir-fry until the surface of the dough is glossy. (If the pan is not non-stick, stir-fry until a layer of white film forms on the bottom of the pan.)

  8. 8
    Step image

    Take out the fried dough, spread it out in a bowl, and let it cool for a while to lower the temperature of the dough.

  9. 9
    Step image

    190 grams of beaten eggs, added in 5-6 portions.

  10. 10
    Step image

    Use an electric mixer to beat until evenly whipped. Note: After each time of beating until evenly whipped, add the egg mixture.

  11. 11
    Step image

    Note: You don't need to add all the egg mixture; if the batter is too thin, the puff will not be able to hold its shape.

  12. 12
    Step image

    Pass to lifting the spatula, and it is enough for the spatula to have an inverted triangle of batter.

  13. 13
    Step image

    Squeeze the choux pastry batter onto the baking tray, leaving some space between each for expansion.

  14. 14
    Step image

    After squeezing it out, take the back of a spoon, wet it, and press the tip of the batter flat.

  15. 15
    Step image

    Preheat the oven to 180℃ in advance, put in the cream puffs and bake for 20-25 minutes. After baking, let them sit in the oven for 5 minutes before taking them out. (Note: Remember not to open the oven while baking to prevent the puff shells from shrinking due to sudden cooling.)

  16. 16
    Step image

    Take out the baked cream puffs and let them cool completely.

  17. 17
    Step image

    Next, we make the matcha cream filling. Take 30g of white chocolate and 30g of heavy cream, and melt them in a heatproof bowl over hot water.

  18. 18
    Step image

    While hot, add 6 grams of matcha powder and stir until the matcha is completely dissolved and the color is uniform. Let it cool for later use.

  19. 19
    Step image

    Take 170 grams of light cream, 20 grams of granulated sugar, and matcha chocolate paste, and whip them together.

  20. 20
    Step image

    Whip until it reaches a 6-7 point silky state, it does not need to be whipped too hard.

  21. 21
    Step image

    Can be used directly or framed and refrigerated for later use.

  22. 22
    Step image

    Use the same method and ingredients, just omit the matcha powder, and make another batch of plain cream filling.

  23. 23
    Step image

    Poke a small hole in the bottom of the cooled cream puff.

  24. 24
    Step image

    Just squeeze in the cream.

  25. 25
