Lan Lam is a dang treasure. Everything she does at CI/ATK is scientifically perfect and always warm and inviting. She's the best.
She is awesome
In the way of all true teachers, Lan has a knack for giving meaningful explanations in such a measured, practical way that even complex techniques seem both rational and approachable.
Edited to add: the “I’m sorry” at the end was adorable.
Well written comment Sandy. Even if edited 😉 Lan and Dan I always look forward to of how they explain the methods, science and practicality.😃
Lan is a shining light among what is an already a star-studded crowd of RUclips chefs.
She gets my goat vote for 2023.
I like your mom's way of keeping you quiet, even if that's all it was. It gave you the chance to learn, to feel important and helpful, to bond with your siblings, and connect to her, too. It was an age-appropriate task that put you on a path to building the skills you have now. I'm sure you're aware of all this already, but as someone who didn't get a lot of that kind of parenting, I just felt the need to appreciate how cool that was.
Yay! More Lan!!!
I didn't realize you can make gnocchi with pate a choux!
Lan is so matter-of-fact about just incredible baking!
This was so well-explained, performed, and visualized that I’m going to make profiteroles for Christmas, and I suck at baking. Thanks Lan!
I always look forward to Lan's lessons. Thank you! (I love the bench scraper tip too!)
Lan is always captivating. Thanks for your hard work.
Absolutely love getting an education from Lan! She's a fantastic teacher.
My mom loved eclairs. I would make them for her any time I was home. She was intimidated by the process. I learned to make them on a lark. Too many bakeries passing off eclairs made with the wrong dough, commercially prepared "vanilla creme", and really bad chocolate ganache 🤐. Another cooking technique mastered. Now for those cheese ones... New Years Eve is coming.... 😃
My mom was 1 of 6 kids, and between them I have 26 cousins. Gram would make a big black garbage bag of cream puffs, and a huge pot of creme filling. It was all on me and my 2 female cousins to split and fill them, NO boys allowed ( cause it was " women's work, as were the dishes). But while NO one was allowed a cream puff til after dinner, we got to break the rule,lol, cause we did the work .I miss my Gram and living near my family 😢
LAM is the best, I love her segments.❤
got a subscription to americas test kitchen just because Lan Lam is so COOL!
Love the Lan!
Last month I made eclair once for the first time and it was a disaster as the Profiteroles: collapsed. I knew it was due to condensation when I pulled it out from the oven as I live in a tropical area, Thailand, and did not watch the recipe video thoroughly (but I ate it anyway by just top it with the cream instead of filling it). But that's not the only problem I found during that first time. I thought I would never make it anymore as it's too messy but I learned a lot more techniques than I expected that I want to retry again, especially those piping bag techniques which are an eye-opening experience to me, Every step of it!! Thank you Chef Lan for capturing every problem that might be occurred and introducing techniques that are so valuable.
I like that, too -- I mean, the way she points out possible pitfalls and how to avoid them.
Not only a great lesson on choux pastry but the pastry bag tips were awesome! Thank you, Lan!
Lan Lam's voice is so relaxing, but it also inspires confidence in things that seem challenging. She should narrate audio books if she's got the time. She would absolutely clean up.
I usually see loads of negative comments under ATK videos but am pleasantly surprised to see so many positive ones. Everyone loves Lan!
She's the best
As a chemist, I LOVE listening to your explanations! the whys
Lan: Has a degree in chemistry.
Seriously i give her a like even before watching because i know the content is top notch.
Ditto!!
Happy Holiday LL! looking forward to new stuff in 2024 - YOU ARE AMAZING!
Sounds like you have a wonderfully creative mother! Thank you for sharing this fun story!
Wow! I had no idea this dough was so versatile. Back in the day, when we had home-ec in school, cream puffs were the very first project. Because the dough is so easy like you said. Thanks for giving us great ways to try it.
Just found your videos, and I'm addicted! Thank you!
Greatly appreciate Lan.
Lovely and truly inspiring, thanls Lan Lam!!
“…Cool Whip, if you’re my mom in the 80s…” hahahahaha! I totally felt that in my heart,
Thank you!
Wow, so detailed and so ''clean'' explanations. Wonderful teacher.
Awesome!
Love her straight forward delivery. Should have her own channel or fb page.
The way Lan reacts to eating a profiterole at 08:38 is so damn cute and you know it really was so good. :P
Excellent video.
Hi Lan, if you’re ever looking for a guinea pig for your wonderful cooking I’m available!! Lol!!
Very informative. Thank you.
thank you so much. great lesson
Lan Lam is the best. More Lan Lam videos, please.
Loving your videos Lan....more please! 😁🤎
2:53: Wheat proteins and egg proteins do have different functionalities in food systems. Functionally, when one is messed up, the other does not replace the function of the first.
2:33: Two fractions of starch (amylose and amylopectin) present in the starch granule of wheat flour play an important role during gluten development in either bread making or batter development. As it picks up moisture and gelatinizes while temperature rises, starch forms a complex network with the two protein fractions once well hydrated. All kinds of interesting things happen when you under/over hydrate, under/overmix your dough/batter. Remove the starch from the flour and…
Thank You ... May I add a suggestion ? In Québec and in France we add to Pâte à Choux 'Smoked Salmond Cream Cheese' as an entrée ...or 'finger food' ... It is so good!
Mrs. Lam, you are such a pleasure to watch and learn from! What about a Gluten Free Pate a Cheux since you don’t have to worry about gluten development and are adding that structure with eggs???
Id love to see more content from you
This is with no doubt the biggest piping bag I've ever seen. I could use it as a parachute
Chou gnocchi???? Ohhhh yummmm😋😋tossed with the veggies even more yummier😋😋😋gonna try this for sure👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻wonderful lesson👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️🍸🍸🍸🍸
Thanks Lan! I really choux’d learn this dough. 😉👻
Lan is the first Vietnamese person I've heard saying their parents used pate choux. But if her family is from the North, with the French influence, that makes sense
Have a Nice Little Marry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chef Lam with another hit!
Thanks- you demonstrated this very well!! I’ve made cream puffs for a long time- but didn’t know about the savory opportunities… yum!
Thank you Lan, you did it again! Always great explanations and ways to use them.
I ❤love Lan
Lan can cook!
Choux I have made many times. Associated w/ gnocchi??!! Never heard that, ever. Mine have never been quite right; now I have clues to work with. Thank You so much for the instructive tutorial.
I’d never heard of profiteroles being filled with ice cream before today. I’m from the U.K. and never known them to contain anything other than creme patisserie or chantilly cream
It's an American thing, perhaps taken from Italy after WWII (like we did pizza) ... one of my favorite desserts as a child was what she calls Profiteroles.
Love Lan!!
It is always a pleasure to watch an expert at her craft. All the little gestures and tricks that only come with experience. My favorite was that wooden spoon holding the oven door open.
Great job! I love your ability to teach. Thank you.
YUM!!! Thanks for sharing. 🙂
Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I remember this dough. My mom used to make custard filled crème puffs when I was a kid.
Great recipe
It’s so amazing how one dough recipe can be used in so many ways!!!
What’s your thoughts on showing ways to create rich broths/stocks
Another fantastic learning experience and video for my library. You pack so much useful information into a welcoming space. 🙏
You're just divine, inspiring ❤🎉
Just perfect...
I love her! 👏👏🙌
Lan videos are the best. 😊
Thank you so much ☺️ ❤
Enough explanation and detailed videoing that I think I could do it.
Incredible recipes. I've made choux paste a few times but I never knew it could be savory too.
Going to make cream puffs also want to try the gnocchi.
10:33 "... it's like the best Cheez-It you've ever eaten." 😛 (I love Cheez-Its.)
I am going to make my Grandma's cream puffs and eclairs. She used to melt junior mints and pour it on top. Xmas dinner 😁
Oh my gosh why did I never think about using a bench scraper duh 😅, that’s such a good tip!!!
Substitute matzo meal for flour and voila , Passover choux pastry . Works great.
i really like her ❤️❤️❤️
#LOL; MY EX USES TO BAKE THESE ALLLLL THE TIME FOR MY MOM WHEN SHE WAS ALIVE; THESE & BRAN MUFFIN'S SHE LOVED*..
I WISH I COULD TALK TO HIM RIGHT NOW; I MISS HIM AS A FRIEND & CAN'T FIND HIM....
BUT YOU GOT ME WITH THAT CAKE WHEN YOU SAID:
" *ANGELA GEARY* "
#CUZ I'M A GEARY TOO; & SO WAS MY MOM.
R.I.P.💔❤️🩹❣️👍🏻
Okay,, the poetry is painful but your still the best..
You just made my mum's Cream Puffs (sans cream)!
@lanlam Any recommendations on where to get a good pastry bag like the one you use?
It looks to be a canvas bag from August Thomsen Co. (aka Ateco).
I noticed you were using whole eggs for the gnocchi, rather than blended. Should these be room temperature or right out of the fridge? Sage Bacon Potato gnocchi for New Year's Eve.
Great subject matter: Pâte à Choux What would be brilliant would be to find a way to make Choux without a piping bag. Would this be possible? Cause my mind goes numb about the extra step and cleanup. I know it is awesome I worked in a kitchen with a great French Chef at Lake Tahoe, best food ever.😲
I love your detailed descriptive commentary. I wish you would provide guidance like this using alternative flours like almond flour and coconut flour. I am extremely allergic to wheat. Because oats are usually cut in factories where wheat is also processed, I have not ever found any that I don’t react too. Even gluten free labeling rules allow a minute amount. I react to most of them. Reaction is most unpleasant and occasionally scary.
Andrew Lessman sells organic and gluten free oatmeal and oat bran. He sells his stuff on HSN and direct from his company's website, procaplabs. I can eat gluten, so I cannot say if his stuff will work for you, but I've ordered direct from him for years and enjoy both products. I assume you could run the oatmeal through a blender or food processor to make oat flour.
@@ann4934 It not whether it’s organic. It’s about whether it processed along side wheat. Some places use the same machines for wheat and then for oats. And they may not actually test for gluten for each batch. I have tired of getting reactions. So for me, I just don’t eat oats. I want to keep on breathing.
@@karenreneelyles261 I understand you have a life threatening issue. Andrew Lessman claims his oat products are organic AND gluten free. Perhaps his customer service office could tell you if his gluten free claim is strict enough to meet your needs.
I was intimidated by Pâte à Choux ... then I realized it was good old "cream puffs" like granny made.
Can you give us a this kind of simple & straightforward recipe for puff pastry?
(So many people are allergic to soybean oil and most commercial puff pastries are made with soy bean oil, so I actually need to make my own puff pastry to make anything from my family with puff pastry.)
Can you do the gnocchi with some potato in there since you're not relying on the gluten?
you know, i really liked the parmasean brazil little dough ball things, but i found them a little difficult to bake up in muffin tins. i think these would be easier to bake since i can just put them on a silpat. dang.
Lan rules
Can you use another medium to make it vegan omitting egg. Psyllium or xantham or flax egg or chia???
This is my first time seeing Lan Lam and I'm just so very impressed at how excellent of a teacher she is.
What is a caffeine alternative to chocolate?
Could it be made with non dairy butter?
Can this be made with GF flour?
Hi can I make the gnocchi in a kitchen aid
I was just saying that I was in need a a Lan fix.
I have made gnocchi and didn't like them so I bought gnocchi and I didn't like them either. This might be the sub I need. It sounds promising. and so does the crunch. maybe they'd work as a crouton as well. What choux think? Thx for doing this, filming it and sharing it with us. 👍👍👍👍👍
Have you tried ricotta gnocchi?
@@lynnstlaurent6789 - no. Seeing them in a pkg iisn't as enticing to try something you never eat isn't as enticing as seeing a video showing an alternative made and cooked right infront of you. 😊
Does this work gluten-free?
🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
if you fried this dough do you think it would make churros??
