Milk: 200 ml
1 Egg
1/5 Vanilla Bean Seeds

Direction:
1. Place a fine mesh sieve over a large microwavable bowl, add corn starch, flour and sugar, sift altogether into a bowl.
2. Add 1/3 of the milk (approx. 60ml) into the bowl, mix it
3. Add egg, and mix it very well
4. Add remaining milk and mix it very well

☆How to make the pâte à chouxx
Ingredients:
Milk - 100g: 100ml
Water - 100g: 100ml
Unsalted Butter - 90g: 3.2oz.
Sugar- 5g: 0.2 oz.
Salt- 5g: 0.2 oz.
All Purpose Flour, sifted- 115g: 4.06 oz.
Whole Eggs, whipped- 220g: 7.8 oz. (about 4 med size)
Powder Sugar - a little bit

Directions:
1. In a saucepan, add milk, water, sugar, salt and unsalted butter and cook over low heat.
2. Once the butter is melt, turn the heat to high until the boiling point. Turn off the heat.
3. Stir in the sifted flour with a heatproof spatula or wooden spoon until combined and the mixture clears the sides of the pan.
4. Transfer the dough into a separate bowl, and leave it for a few minutes until the temperature becomes approx. 60C.:140F.
5. Gradually add whipped egg; mix well and repeat using up all of the egg mixture. Mix until the texture becomes just soft enough to drop over 2 times. Do not overdo it, because if you do it too much then the choux would not raise during baking.
6. Transfer all dough into an pastry bag; I will be using a 2cm width round tip.
7. On a baking sheet (with a parchment sheet or greased top), squeeze the dough and form a round shape of the size up to your preference. You can also form the head/neck part of the swan here using a smaller round tip.
8. Bake at pre-heated oven at 200C:392F for 10 min; take off the decoration parts of the swan from the oven very quickly, then lower the temp to 170C:338F and bake for another 10min, followed by additional 5-10 min at 160C:320F.
9. Once baked, leave to cool on a rack completely.
10. Slice the top part of the round choux and then fill in the custard cream inside the choux and garnish with whip cream. Put the head/neck part of the swan into the choux. Cut the top part into half like wings, and decorate them on top of the choux.
11. Sprinkle over icing sugar and it's done!

kumigar, what is the oven you use? do you know if there is any oven like it in the united states?

[Kumigar]

@trlewcun oh you guys have more powerful ovens back in the States right? LOL

[serenityangel1995]

how are you still skinny...?

[Kumigar]

@serenityangel1995 i exercise like a monster. i put on weight during the winter though.. lol

[gildamuten]

just tried mine.. really failed T_T not sure where its when wrong..

the puff was so watery so i put more flour.. also it cant raised :( but i really like it when i mix it with the custard cream.. just that i cant make it pretty like yours :(

[Kumigar]

@gildamuten Oh no... if it was too watery the I suppose you would need to add more heat but more heat means less chance of the puff being raised. Please make sure you use pre-heated oven and never open the oven until you are certain it is being baked...

[trlewcun]

@Kumigar I don't know about more powerful, but they are certainly a lot bigger, and take up more space. I would like to have an oven like you do, it seems convenient.
