    These are *gorgeous*. Your choux looks so fluffy! I would gobble these up like a fat turkey.

  3. This triggered my ptsd. I used to have to make soooo many of these fucking things working hot apps. Used to dream about making that batter

    Genuine question for the group.

    – Roux + milk = bechamel
    – Roux + stock = veloute

    Roux + milk + stock = ???

    Edit: I just realized there’s also cheese in there…so Mornay too?

    God these look good! No way I’m affording lobster lol but filling with a bechamel is genius

    Interesting plating. I get that these look tasty but really don’t fit the sub.
