Coming soon. I love that her recipes just plain work. Plus she had a great sense of humour to boot and a zest for life. :)

You’re welcome! I thought my mom already had a foolproof puff recipe, but this one is even better. Her cookbooks are worth investing in. I read somewhere that for “Mastering the Art of French Cooking”, the recipes were tested 20x. The recipes simply work, like the one for the puffs. She included very good tips for each recipe, too.

Thank you so much! This is all so very exciting. :)

I always wonder how the outside of beautiful puffs keeps so crunchy and fluffy. Oh, that’s a secret behind of making them. Thanks for sharing.
I was the one who were not familiar with Julia Child, until the movie trailer came into place in Australia. I guess she must be a very famous person. I shouldn’t miss the movie and her cookbooks too.
Last but not least, CONGRATS!

Beautiful choux. Where’s the creme patissiere? ;) I too didn’t really know much about her till much later in life, but I know she’s really revered in American culinary tradition!
