Groundhog Puff Pastry Soy Milk Puffs
1.
[Soy milk custard sauce] This time I used a quick method: put egg yolk and fine sugar in a small pot, beat with egg until the color becomes lighter, pour in the sifted low-gluten flour and cornstarch, stir and mix To no dry powder.
2.
Pour soy milk, stir and mix well. Turn on low heat, stir quickly while heating, continue to heat for about 1 minute after boiling, turn off the heat after the custard sauce becomes thick and smooth.
3.
Cover the surface of the soy milk custard sauce with a fresh-keeping film, and put it in the refrigerator for later use after cooling.
4.
【Puff Pastry】The butter is fully softened at room temperature, and mixed with powdered sugar and low-gluten flour. After mixing until there is no dry powder, knead into a dough.
5.
The puff pastry dough is sandwiched between two pieces of baking paper, rolled into a sheet with a thickness of 1-2 mm, and placed in the refrigerator for later use.
6.
[Puffs] The eggs return to room temperature. Put water, butter, sugar, and salt in a small thick-bottomed pot and heat it to a boil over medium-low heat.
7.
Add the sifted low-gluten flour and turn off the heat.
8.
Stir the mixture into a dough without dry powder, turn on a low heat, and stir the dough continuously. Until there is a layer of white film on the bottom of the pan (fry for more than 1 minute, the dough should be fried until gelatinized, so that it can fully expand during the baking process)
9.
Cool the dough to a temperature that can be touched. Add the egg mixture three times. Stir while adding. Each time, wait until the egg mixture is completely absorbed by the dough, and then add the next time. Finally, after stirring the batter, lift the spatula, the batter will fall naturally, leaving a 2-3cm upside down triangle (90g for egg wash), and put the batter into a piping bag while it is hot.
10.
According to the size of the puff to be made, use a mold to press out a suitable meringue (made 8 puffs, the diameter of the meringue is 5cm)
11.
Put baking paper on the baking tray, squeeze out a circle with a diameter of 5 cm (the puffs are spaced about 3 cm apart to prevent them from sticking together after expansion), and put the pastry on the top. Put it in a preheated 190 degree oven, middle level, and bake for about 23 minutes.
12.
After roasting, take it out and let it cool for later use. (The puff shells must be baked in place for enough time and fully colored, otherwise they will collapse after being baked and there will be a wet batter inside)
13.
Whip the whipped cream 70%, add the chilled coagulated soy milk custard sauce, whipped at a high speed in a mixer until it is smooth and smooth, and put it into a piping bag.
14.
Put the chocolate in a piping bag, put it in hot water and heat it until it melts.
15.
After the puffs have cooled, use a serrated knife or scissors to cut off the top and make a hole.
16.
Squeeze the soy milk cream filling into the puff and put a small cap on it.
17.
Use the melted chocolate to draw the eyes, nose, and beard of the groundhog. (The piping bag should be as small as possible)
