POPOVER!

Eversince the last visit to the restaurant in Neiman's, I fell in love with Popover. The  crispy /soft/buttery /warm popover~~ I found the recipe on internet and the last sentence: "Just like the popovers at Neiman's!" made me chose it without second doubt.

It turned out to be really really good. It is amazing how little effort you put into each pan, and how big each popover grows. It is not exactly like the Neiman's ones which is sweeter. So maybe I can add some honey or date to the original one to please my  sweet teeth. The plain one is good with chocolate paste or jam though.

I tested both cupcake pan and popover pan at the same time. It turned out to be good both way. The popover pan ones grows larger (about three times) and looks better. The taste is the same. 
 





 



Just Out of Oven



Ingredients


  •  1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus 1 teaspoon room temperature for pan

  •  4 3/4 ounces (135g) all-purpose flour, approximately 1 cup

  •  1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt (reduce to half for regular salt)

  •  2 large eggs, room temperature

  •  1 cup whole milk , room temperature
Directions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

  •  Grease a 6-cup popover pan with the 1 teaspoon of butter.

  •  Place all of the ingredients into a food processor or blender and process for 30 seconds.

  •  Divide the batter evenly between the cups of the popover pan, each should be about 1/3 to 1/2 full.

  •  Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 40 minutes.

  •  Remove the popovers to a cooling rack and pierce each in the top with a knife to allow steam to escape. Serve warm. 
TIP
Heat the milk up 1 minute in microwave, warm the eggs in hot water, only use a pinch of salt. Just like the popovers at Neiman's!
