To start, you will need to prepare the choux pastry. Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large saucepan, melt butter with water and salt until boiling. Remove from the heat and add flour, stirring vigorously until a smooth paste is formed. Return the saucepan to the heat and stir for one to two minutes.
Remove from the heat and cool slightly before adding the eggs, one at a time. Stir vigorously after each addition until the dough is smooth and glossy. Then, spoon the dough in small rounds onto a lined baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the are golden brown and crisp.
While the profiteroles are baking, you can prepare the zabaglione glaze. This sauce is traditionally made by whisking egg yolks, sugar, and sweet wine together over a double boiler until light and frothy. Once your zabaglione is ready, stir in a small amount of gelatin to give it a glossy finish and allow it to cool.
To assemble the profiteroles, use a piping bag to fill the pastry shells with whipped cream. You can add any flavor you like, from vanilla to or even fruit. Once filled, use a spoon to drizzle the zabaglione glaze over the top of each profiterole. The glaze will cover the cream filling and add a sweet and tangy taste to the dessert.
To add an extra touch of elegance, you can garnish the profiteroles with fresh berries or edible flowers. This will not only enhance the presentation but also add a fruity flavor that will complement the sweet and creamy filling.
In conclusion, profiteroles with zabaglione glazed in white are a delicious and sophisticated dessert that will impress your guests. The combination of the crisp pastry, creamy filling, and tangy glaze creates a flavor explosion that will leave your taste buds tingling. By following these simple steps, you can easily create this elegant dessert in your own kitchen and make any occasion feel extra special.
