GOUGERES Ingredients 1-1/2 cups water 1/2 cup butter, cut into pieces 1/4 teaspoon salt 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour 5 eggs 1-1/2 cups shredded Gruyere cheese (6 ounces) 4 teaspoons Dijon-style mustard 1/8 teaspoon ground white pepper 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper Cayenne pepper (optional) Directions 1. Lightly grease two baking sheets; set aside. In a medium saucepan, combine the water, butter, and salt. Bring to boiling. Add flour all at once, stirring vigorously. Cook and stir until mixture forms a ball. Remove from heat. Transfer to a large mixing bowl. Cool for 10 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating with an electric mixer on medium speed for 1 minute after each addition. Stir in Gruyere cheese, mustard, white pepper, and the 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper. 2. Preheat oven to 400F. Using a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch star tip, pipe batter in 1-inch mounds about 11/2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets. (Or use 2 teaspoons batter for each puff.) 3. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until puffed and golden brown. Serve warm. If desired, sprinkle with additional cayenne pepper. Makes about 60 gougeres. 4. Make-Ahead: Bake gougeres as directed. Cool on wire racks. Place cooled gougeres in an airtight container and store in the freezer up to 1 month. To reheat, place frozen gougeres on a baking sheet and bake, uncovered, in a preheated 350F oven for 6 to 8 minutes or until heated. ENDIVE SPEARS WITH SWEET POTATO ; BACON ,CHIVES Ingredients 3 slices bacon, thinly sliced crosswise 1 small sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice (about 1-1/2 cups) Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 3 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh chives 2 medium heads Belgian endive 1/4 cup creme fraiche or sour cream Directions 1. Cook the bacon in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until it has rendered some of its fat, about 3 minutes. Add the sweet potato and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until the sweet potato is tender and the bacon starts to crisp, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the chives and season with more salt and pepper to taste. Let cool for a couple of minutes. 2. Slice the bottom 1/2 inch off the endives so some of the outer leaves break free. Cut another 1/2 inch off and break some more leaves free. Keep going until all the larger leaves are free. (You should have about 20.) If you like, trim the leaves so they're all the same length. Save the remaining endive for a salad. 3. Set the endive leaves on a large platter. Spoon the sweet potato mixture near the base of the leaves. Top each with a dollop of the creme fraiche and then sprinkle with the remaining chives. Serve immediately or let sit for up to 20 minutes before serving.
