I made a Paris-Brest in high school as part of a French class cultural project. I think it had a much simpler filling though, like whipped cream lightened custard, no praline. I had inadvertent practice with choux dough, because that's how passover rolls are made (but with matzo meal not flour), and I'd made them many times with my mother and grandmother.
going through all your videos . . . AMAZING to see the difference to your current work . . . this is "charming youtube" . . . these days you are full network food program . . . (having said that - when you sell your program to a network, keep it as a one-man production . . . that is the charm . . . 14 grips and writers and make-up artists will kill you!)
Oh, Jamie... looking over your older videos as I've watched most of your more recent ones. You're adorable in all of them and it makes me more willing to fail in the kitchen while I'm learning new things. I SO MUCH appreciate you!
You don't necessarily need a tip for a piping bag. You can just cut the tip of the bag off until you get a hole that is appropriate for the viscosity of what you are piping. For the dough, just make it bigger until it pipes easily. When filling the bag, bring the opening down over the edge of the glass you are using to support it. Once you have the lower part filled, you can bring up the side of the bag and fill some more. Better yet, get bigger bags. Finally, twist the opening of the bag and fold it over so that it doesn't squirt out the wrong end. ps: I think you upgraded the pot to stainless steel. Good for you. But for the next one, go fully clad and not with the disc at the bottom.
Paris-Brest is my all-time favorite. I’m not really a dessert person, but this one drives me crazy … in a very good way. I can’t imagine what went wrong for you, except maybe you made the choux pastry and let it wait too long before you used it. I urge you to give it another chance but try to soldier on and do it all in one day, then serve it up with your drink of choice (very strong coffee for me, either black or with some cream) and watch a great bicycle-race film: Breaking Away. As I’m watching this in 2022 and your skills have improved mightily, I think you’ll do much better this time, should you try making it now. Please please please give it another shot! (It must be in one of Julia’s cookbooks.)
I AM ON RUclips!!! Jamie you have made my day, this rusty bones could not be happier. I am sorry the dessert was not of your liking, i usually add a hidden jam or spread before/under the buttercream to add a something to the tastebuds. ❤
Now that you're a more experienced chef I'd like to see you take on this one again....especially since you clearly have an affinity with bicycle wheels!!!!
I think you overfilled your piping bag, leaving no space at the top to make a knot or twist to prevent the dough of spilling out at the top. Especially with something like choux dough, which requires a decent amount of pressure to get out of the piping bag, making a knot or twist at the top makes life a lot easier and less messy ;) try working in 2 batches next time or buy some bigger piping bags :) Oh and while piping something, apply pressure with the hand at the top, not with the one holding the bag halfway down. Use your top hand to apply pressure and push the mixture down and use the other hand to guide the bag wherever it needs to go. Make sure you keep twisting the top as the piping bag empties to maintain pressure and steady piping!
I should have picked up the larger piping bags! 😫 I’m not sure why I decided on the smaller ones! I feel like any method I try it always spills out the top! I’ll try these tips next time!
once you put the batter in the piping bag and twist off the top and then fold over the little tip forms from the twist with your hand while you pipe you wont have that spillage at the top
Mr Tracey, As thank you... here it is SHELTON'S ALMOND CAKE please enjoy with your beloved ones, as we do in my house. 150 g melted unsalted butter 100 g almond paste (homemade is best) 300g sugar 250g ap flour 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 2 teaspoon grounded cardamom 1 pinch of salt 2 eggs + After baking 100g of almond paste Heavy Cream as wished icing sugar grounded cardamom.

Butter the sides of a baking sheet, dress the bottom with baking paper (baking sheet of 20-22 cm or any tray but do not allow the batter pour higher than 2cm.) Pour the batter and bake approx. 15-20 minutes at 175C. The cake should be sticky in the middle. Let it cool. Serve by spreading some almond paste on top, a scoop of whipped heavy cream. Sprinkle some icing sugar and a pinch of cardamom.
I made this years ago and it was a lot of work! But I thought it was delicious! Except my husband decided it needed chocolate ‘spokes’ which ruined the whole esthetic.😮
Hey mate, before to do video how to make things you should learn how to do it. learn how to fill a piping bag and how to pipe on tray. Mousseline cream is made of buttercream combine with cream patissière to do mousseline this is the best or add soft butter into cream patissière mixing well then add praline paste
Hey Everyone! This one took a toll on me...4 days! Who's had the Paris-Brest before?

Four days? It’s just a choux bun really with a mousse filling, four days? Wow!
aww the ladybug spatula has been here since the beginning!
You’re awesome. I can’t stop watching. Always lifts my spirits.

I just found this channel and I think it's my new favorite thing. The editing is AMAZING!!!
Thank you!! Lots more coming!!

Awesome recommendation! I’m sure it was tasty...I was just exhausted by the whole process. Haha
@@antichef I bet you were, it's a marathon itself to make that thing.
try TORTA AHOGADA from Guadalajara, savoury and crazy yum.
Now that you're a more experienced chef I'd like to see you take on this one again....especially since you clearly have an affinity with bicycle wheels!!!!
Looks yummy, not sure I what to go through that much work but it was nice watching you doing it.
Gorgeous!
Just discovered your channel and loving catching up on all the vids .. great stuff, Jamie!

This episode is a gem!
Good job. One of my favorite desserts, and sports-bicycling. Fun video. You’re f**king adorable. 😃🙌🏼🚴🏼♂️
Yummmm. Not another cooking show is right. You are becoming a pastry chef. Keep going my friend. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks Izzie!
I remember having a small pistachio Paris-Brest, just as small as a donut, and it was great.
once you put the batter in the piping bag and twist off the top and then fold over the little tip forms from the twist with your hand while you pipe you wont have that spillage at the top
I’ll give it a try!
It would be neat to see you make this again, 5 years later, and see how you might like it now. Maybe with a different recipe?
The praline cream looks pretty good. Maybe I’ll do the chocolate one instead.

Thanks Lina!!

Enjoy the earlier videos as much as the later ones.
Watching this after the Giant Cream Puff episode
Bravo!
Merci!!
I thought you were adorable now (2022) with Jamie and Julia - but damn you are even more adorable in this one.
4:15 is it the lighting? Those yolks are pale as...uh egg white!
I have an idea that would be a lot of fun for you to make, somewhat easy too: bagels.
Great idea!
Very Good
..
👏🏼
I’m curious about cooking on a sharpie line…?
You need to push everything tight down and twist the top of the piping bag. Nothing will come out of the top
it looked like it was more work then enjoyment, but it was an adventure and that’s good for you, puts hair on your chest.
Every time an egg mixture doesn't come out of the bowl I'm now saying "Those are some stiff peaks.."
Get bigger piping bags!! You’ll love it!
I finally did!
Hello
I would love to see you make Russian honey cake 🍰

I can tell not a happy camper!
You over fill your pastry bag. There is nothing wrong with adding filling as needed
Electric stoves are challenging. The odds were stacked against you.
You can buy pipping bag clips
Kringle!!!!!!
