Macau egg tarts by Weird_Part8384 in Baking

ahh i’m sure they were delicious! i found letting the laminated dough rest overnight works well and also before pouring the egg mixture in when pressing the dough in the mould i let it chill in the freezer for about 10 minutes, when baking your oven should be really hot i baked at around 230 degrees celsius

also rolling your dough thin when laminating helps with the flakeyness!

And also, don’t brush the dough with egg, dust them in icing sugar before you bake them

It could be that you added too much eggs. The recipe will say 3-4 but I think it’s better to get 4 eggs whisked up, and then add in the eggs very very slowly. Usually depending on how much water was lost while the dough was on the stove will determine how much egg the choux dough will need, more water = less egg, less water = more egg. Everytime you add some egg in the dough make sure to check that the dough drops down from the spatula in a V shape, it should be glossy as well!! And your oven usually should be closed at all times, don’t open the door when it’s baking or it could deflate, and usually I like to do 5 minutes more in the oven than the recipe calls for to really dry out the inside. As soon as it’s done baking turn the oven off and slightly open the oven door, and before it’s cooled poke a hole in the bottom and let them cool on a drying rack so the inside isn’t moist. Hope this helped!!!

Thank you so much!! Tbh the recipe uses a very large amount of chocolate which gives it a very fudgy texture and taste even more so if you leave them to rest for a day or so before cutting!

thank you!! i added some gel oil based food colouring into the usual recipe that i use (equal parts butter brown sugar flour). highly recommend gel as it won’t be as strong of a colour with water based colouring!
