Pre heat the oven at 375 F
Preparing the Choux paste (dough)
Ingredients
1/4 c water
1/8 bar unsalted butter
1/8 t iodized salt
1/4 c all purpose flour
1pc small size beaten egg
Once "Laid out" on the baking tray, cook the puffs (Choux) in a oven at 200 Celsius (390 Fahrenheit) for 15 to 20 minutes depending on the size of the puffs or eclairs..
When the puffs have a nice golden color, put the temperature down to 175 Celsius (350 Fahrenheit),
open the oven door slightly and let the puffs or eclairs sit in the oven for another 5 minutes (make sure you leave the oven door just slightly open) .
This is to avoid the collapsing of the puff. After 5 minutes take the puffs or eclairs out of the oven and let them cool down a bit before using them.
