CACIO E PEPE CHEESE PUFFS



Cacio E Pepe Cheese Puffs image

When friends come over for dinner and I have a lot to cook, I serve the simplest appetizers: shards of aged Parmesan, slices of good salami and a bowl of salty Marcona almonds. But when I invite people to come for just a drink, I go all out and make something special like these cheese puffs, inspired by ones I had at Missy Robbins's restaurant Lilia in Brooklyn. Everyone always loves them!

Categories     appetizer

Time 40m

Yield 35 to 40 puffs

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup whole milk
1/4 pound (1 stick) unsalted butter
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 extra-large eggs
1/2 cup freshly ground aged Italian Pecorino cheese, plus extra for sprinkling (see Cook's Notes)
1/2 cup freshly ground Italian Parmesan cheese
1 extra-large egg beaten with 1 teaspoon water or milk, for egg wash

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Arrange two racks evenly spaced in the oven.
  • In a medium (4 1/2-inch-diameter by 6-inch-high) saucepan, heat the milk, butter, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper over medium heat, just until the milk is scalded (see Cook's Note). Add the flour all at once and beat it vigorously with a wooden spoon until the mixture comes together. Lower the heat and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Dump the mixture into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Immediately add the eggs, 1/2 cup of Pecorino and the Parmesan and pulse until the eggs and cheeses are completely incorporated.
  • Working in batches, spoon the mixture into a large pastry bag fitted with a plain 5/8-inch round pastry tip. Pipe the dough in mounds 1 1/4 inches wide and 3/4 inch high (1 inch apart) on two sheet pans lined with parchment paper. (They should look like huge Hershey's Kisses.) With a wet finger, lightly press down the swirl on top of each puff. (You can also use two spoons to scoop the mixture and shape the puffs.) Brush the top of each puff lightly with the egg wash and sprinkle with Pecorino, salt and pepper. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until browned. Rotate the pans halfway through so they brown evenly. Serve hot.

CACIO E PEPE CHEESE PUFFS

Ina Garten's 12th cookbook, "Modern Comfort Food," was published in October 2020. As always, she seemed to have her finger on the culinary zeitgeist: Comfort was the order of the day. These puffs, which she adapted from the Brooklyn chef Missy Robbins, combine the richness of classic gougères with the bite of black pepper and Parmesan.

Time 45m

Yield 40 to 50 puffs

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup/240 milliliters whole milk, plus 1 teaspoon for the egg wash
1/2 cup/115 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), diced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup/130 grams all-purpose flour
5 large eggs
1/2 cup/70 grams freshly ground Parmesan
1/2 cup/70 grams freshly ground aged pecorino cheese, plus 2 tablespoons for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Arrange two racks so they are evenly spaced in the oven.
  • In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup milk with the butter, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper over medium just until bubbles start to form around the perimeter and the milk is scalded. (Don't allow it to boil.)
  • Add the flour all at once and beat the mixture vigorously with a wooden spoon until it comes together. Lower the heat and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Dump the mixture into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Immediately add 4 eggs, the Parmesan and pecorino, and pulse until the eggs and cheeses are completely incorporated.
  • Line two sheet pans with parchment paper. Working in batches, spoon the dough into a large pastry bag fitted with a 5/8-inch round pastry tip or a large, gallon-size resealable bag, snipping off a lower corner before piping.
  • Pipe the dough onto the sheet pans in 1 1/4-inch-wide, 3/4-inch-high mounds, setting them each 1 inch apart. (You can also use two spoons to scoop the mixture and shape the puffs.) The mounds should be shaped like huge chocolate kisses. Using a wet finger, lightly press down the swirl on top of each puff.
  • Prepare the egg wash: In a small bowl, whisk the remaining egg with the remaining 1 teaspoon milk until combined. Brush the top of each puff lightly with the egg wash and sprinkle with the remaining pecorino; season with salt and pepper.
  • Bake the cheese puffs until browned, about 15 to 20 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through baking. Serve hot. (If preparing the cheese puffs in advance, you can bake them off, allow them to cool, then freeze them in a sealed resealable bag. Reheat them on a parchment-lined baking sheet at 375 degrees for 10 minutes.)
