People who know me well, know that I am prone to bouts of random behavior. On Tuesdays I like my tea to be stirred clockwise, but on every other Friday I like it to be stirred in the opposite direction, but only if its raining. I sometimes wear an eye mask to bed because I don’t like to be woken up by the light in the mornings. On other occasions, I have to sleep with my feet stuck out of the covers because I don’t like them to be too hot but then put my slippers on to be able to walk around the house on the cold tiles.
However when it comes to desserts, for my whole life I have been completely consistent.
For as long as I can remember, this has been my top 3 dessert list :
1. Apple pie or apple crumble (either will do me, thank you very much)
2. Tiramisu
3. Profiteroles
I have made 1 and 2 over the years but never 3. Until now.
And now I know how easy Choux Pastry is to make, it is safe to say that there are plenty more profiteroles in my future and they have secured their place in my top 3 list of years to come.
