It’s Jibiko’s Kitchen, Episode 6!
For a weekend snack, let’s make cream puffs! ✨
Shine Muscat grapes and custard cream go really well together.
The whole family will be delighted!
Try making them yourself too ^^!
They might be just as good as the ones you buy at the store, or even better!

Shopping
First, we went shopping with my daughter at the holy land for sweets lovers, “Tomizawa Shoten”!

We also bought additional tools and our expectations grew. (At this point, I didn’t know what she was going to make.)
We will be using the original divine recipe from Tomizawa Shoten as a reference this time.

- 2. Put water, milk, butter, salt, and granulated sugar in a pot and bring to a boil.

- 5. Transfer the pot to a work surface and slowly mix in the beaten eggs, dividing them into 4 or 5 portions, until the dough is firm enough to be scooped up with a spatula and drips slowly.

- 6. Put the dough into a piping bag with a nozzle about 10cm in diameter and pipe it out into circular shapes about 5cm in diameter on a baking sheet.
- 7. Lightly brush the surface of the dough with beaten egg and flatten the surface with a fork.
- 8. Bake in a 200℃ preheated oven until the dough rises well and turns a fox brown color. (Guideline: 15 minutes at 200℃, then reduce the heat to 180℃ and bake for about 20 minutes.)
