Frequently Asked Questions
How do I prevent the dough from burning when frying?
Be sure to fry the batter over low heat and stir evenly. If the batter gets too hot, it may burn or take on a bitter taste. Remove the pan from the heat when the batter begins to smoke or brown.
Can I add other ingredients to change the taste?
Yes, you can add different ingredients to the dough to vary the taste. For example, you could add vanilla extract or cinnamon for an extra flavor. Experiment with different ingredients to create your own unique flavor.
How do I know if the puffs are ready?
The puffs should be light golden brown and plump. They should spring back when pressed and should not be raw inside. Use a toothpick to check the inside. If the toothpick comes out clean, the puffs are done.
What is the best way to store the chocolate puffs?
Allow the puffs to cool completely before placing them in an airtight container. Store them in the refrigerator if you plan to keep them for more than a day. Reheat them slightly before serving to restore freshness.
