PERFECT PILLOWY BEIGNETS RECIPE WITH CLAIRE SAFFITZ | DESSERT PERSON

I don't understand how Netflix hasn't picked this up as a full blown series. Even the cartoon intro as an animated kids version too.

I love that Claire is always shocked by her recipes even tho she’s the one who developed and wrote them

I make beignets for my wife sometimes. She has been to Cafe du Mond and claims mine are better. Use bread flour, 10% rye, and 10% potato starch. Outside will be crisp, inside nutty and fluffy. The king Arthur recipe i started with also includes a little butter in the dough. Leave out the baking powder, but put a little vanilla in the dough. And get a Danish dough whisk. I thought they were frippery, but the first time i tried it I was a convert.

Watching with my cat Puff and she knew she was being addressed. Claire: You're gonna immediately see them puff. Puff: Yes, I see them.

My favorite perennial Claireism "Probably my bowl is too small." 😄 Can't wait to make these!

I have been making these for over 30 years. Got the recipe from the New Orleans Womens Junior League. A fun twist is putting out a whipped cream charger to fill them right before eating them or, in the summer, piping peach-laced whipped cream into them and adding a chocolate ganache drizzle over the top. For Christmas morning, we add blackberries and some twigs of rosemary to make it look like a snow-capped mountain. Love your way with food Claire.

Claire: the size doesn’t matter. Also Claire: has a ruler 😂

I’ve been craving beignets so bad these past two weeks. This video is a gift can’t even begin to explain how happy I am right now without sounding dramatic

I was in New Orleans in 2009 and remember my stop at Cafe Du Monde so fondly! So much powdered sugar everywhere that my shoes stuck to the floor as I walked. When you said don't exhale I thought, "Don't inhale either, the sugar will go right down your throat!" And then it happened. Proceed with caution, friends, but so worth it! Can't wait to make these.

Quick question, what's your favorite dessert of all time? Reply below.

me and my partner went to new Orleans in April, it was a bucket list thing of mine that i never thought i would get to do. Unfortunatly my father passed away, and left me some life insurance money so we went down for a week, first time flying on a plane, first time being outside the state lines of Tennessee and it was absalutly amazing, the food was delicious, the culture the buildings everything was just sublime, i want to go again

I've been loving your most recent recent video series when you were doing oysters and foraging. You mentioned enjoying the natural approach to using ingredients in your surroundings , would love to see more series that has to do with foraging. In Norway (and much of northern Scandinavia) we forage cloudberries (Known as Multe) during fall and its often conserved as a jam to be eaten later on in the year. A traditional recipe known as Multekrem (Cloudberry cream) is served together with whipped cream and sugar, commonly served with "krumkake", another traditional norwegian recipe, its a thin delicate waffle cookie in a conical shape. Often the multekrem is served inside the waffle cookie.
