Mille Feuille - Valentine's Day Special

[niyoggirl]

Um, what do I do if I don't have stones?

[selliemusiclover1]

Looks good

[lifoc]

How can I make this without the eggs? :( Please help!

[eviraaddict]

@cookingwithalia, when mixing the egg mixture, can we use uhm.. electrical beater?

[Dimanta]

My parmsment papers (wax papers) are always creating so much smoke that I have to stop cooking, baking! Its horrible, why is that?

[cookingwithalia]

@Dimanta Actually you should use Parchment paper NOT wax paper. These are two different types of papers. The wax paper burns at high heat (around 400 F) - it should be used to bake cookies at 350 F. Please do not use it again for high heat, or it may burn one day in the oven. oops!

[Dimanta]

@cookingwithalia Thank you for letting me know. I bought it as it said - its good for baking but didnt mention anything about the temperature. Usually I used it only for cookies, but I guess the temperature was 350 F and higher.

[lam362]

Amazing!

[richterscale09]

is the music really necessary?

[lyn324]

can also spread the cream with a pastry bag, the result is more clean and neat

[lyn324]

I think the idea is good but if it is with a cream thickest kind crèrme butter mixed with confectioner Crer it would be best buds and even visually, instead of putting strip of strawberries, we would put small Songs slat cutter to make it easier to eat, more glamorous and visually

[dimoneddancing]

so.. u burnt the sugar?

[Ellish]

Looking forward to making this for my love. <3

[bigbuggie5]

Why do you not want the puff pastry to puff? Btw, those were the biggest beans I have ever seen.

[ailyn94]

your my pastry idol! Thank you for making such creative videos (:

[mooncristalpower]

Holy molly, my name is Illya. Almost exactly the same. o_o

Btw, I love your videos! <3

[kiddlyjesus3000]

you could let it puff up and you have heart shaped that you can put cream in and have a cream puff shaped like a heart

[break4love23]

@kiddlyjesus3000 thats a good idea!

Toronto i made most af yur meals.thanks again

[jackieheu]

Definitly gotta try this one! Thanks for sharing!

[M4037331]

hey,,,this is a good recipe..but my mom never used pastry dough...she always used a sugar cookie dough made from scratch......you should try it..its even better :)

[xxchocobun89xx]

oh so that's how u do the brownish stripes i thought it was chocolate

[cookingwithalia]

@xxchocobun89xx

No, actually you are right. the ones sold in bakeries is white fondant + chocolate stripes. However, I made a 'light' version of just having powdered sugar on top and 'caramel' flavor with the burnt sugar stripes.

[broggi007]

Very nice video! It will really come in handy for those looking to make something special of Valentine's Day! I must say, however, that the measurement for the flour should probably be given by weight, in order to ensure a more accurate cream. But I'm just being nit-picky.. :-)

[houchi69]

i dont think placing another pan on top is necessary.  let it puff up, and it will have a lighter and flakier texture. thank you for the video!

[YunaIesca]

Watching this is making me hungry! Thank you for posting this

[elgattinodibarcelona]

Bonsoir,

En tant que patissier, je trouve que ta recette n'est pas aml, mais please, ne te laisse pas enrayer dans ce style americain du prêt fabriquer pour la pâte feuilletté, fais la toi même , trés facile t beaucoup plus savoureux.

[Phantomicity]

"Add the flour little by little to the egg mixture", as you dump it all in.

[ImGoingOnABerryHunt]

I have a question about the cream.

How firm is the cream when its in the frige?

Its creamy and not rubbery, right?

[romero271991]

@ImGoingOnABerryHunt

No, don't worry, it's not rubbery..it just appears that way :)

[ikram2001]

[kalman75]

This is not the french mille feuilles.

[chebaalhuda]

its truempeople were giving you the thumbs down for that comment,but i live in quebec and sell it in my store...its not the same,and there is no strawberries and the pasrty is not the same aw a welll..

[cookingwithalia]

The traditional french mille-feuille is made with 'pate feuillete' (puff pastry) + creme patissiere (pastry cream) + covered with white fondant. I mentioned in my video that I am making the mille-feuille 'valentine's style', so what I did is added strawberries and instead of the fondant, I used powdered sugar. Other than that, the pastry and cream are similar to the traditional mille-feuille recipe (but of course, I wont be surprised if there other different recipes)

[tamjawcht]

@cookingwithalia

YES there is another kind of Mille Feuille , i am talking here about " Mille Feuille a 100% Chocolat sans Pate "

for the puff pastry , i believe that u don't need to put all that beans to avoid the inflation , juste Piké Bien la Pate pour éviter le gonflage :)  but at the end i prefer to confess that you who knows better , cuz i am just a biginner !

i am following ur videos in order to improve my skills in English , especially that terms which link to my Metier , Shukran

[LesIsMoreFilms]

@kalman75

shutup your face! Don't ever question Alia!

[notbadwill]

As always you are sweeter than any cake.

[Arpiatje]

Love your hair!

[setaareh]
