Pâte à Choux: Sweet and Savory Recipes
Pâte à choux, or choux paste, is a delicate dough used in many types of pastry, and we’ll try out a few. On the menu: Savory baked gougères, cheesy little puffs flavored with Wisconsin-made gruyère. Delicious fried crab puffs, golden brown and crispy, and great for parties. French-style beignets, covered in powdered sugar when they’re still hot from the oil. Last but not least, we will all have a turn at that Wisconsin State Fair staple and fill our own cream puffs.
Recipes contain: milk, eggs, shellfish, wheat.
Mostly demonstration with limited hands-on opportunities.
Tips for class attendees:
- Close-toed shoes, clothes that are not baggy or bulky, and long hair that is restrained are always good choices in the kitchen.
- Out of consideration for other guests, refrain from wearing colognes, perfumes, or anything else that may carry a strong odor. You will be in very close proximity to your fellow classmates.

- Our classes have various levels of hands-on activity. Please refer to the specific class description.
- Instructors encourage guests to engage and ask questions; however, please avoid holding side conversations that disrupt the class for others.
- Arrive 5-10 minutes prior to the start of class to give yourself time to sign in and get settled before we begin.
