    I don't understand why understand why unsalted butter is often used in recipes that go ahead and add salt anyway. Can someone please explain?

    I've been making millions of choux pastry products commercially for over 50 years and have NEVER egg washed them before baking & quite honestly there is no need to. I also do not add salt or sugar
    I noticed that in your video that the choux base was still steaming when you added the first egg. This is wrong, the choux base should be below 160° before you add egg – too high a temperature and the egg will be cooked by the heat of the dough and makes the choux taste eggy & prevents a proper rise or even no rise at all.

    I loved your Tiramisu recipe and made it several times for family and friends. I keep hearing it is the best tiramisu they have ever had. I was over the moon when I found you also made eclairs which are my all time favorites! I subscribed and will be following all of your recipes. Many thanks and best of luck with everything!
