Step3:Heat the milk until it boils slightly (foaming on the edge).
Step4:Pour 1 / 3 of the boiled milk into the yolk paste. Stir until it is even. Then pour the yolk milk paste back into the original sauce pot. Use medium heat to continuously stir and heat for tempering. The batter will become thinner and thicker. Thoroughly boil and foam away from the fire.
Step5:Mix in the salt free butter and make sure there is no caking. If there is caking, sift it once. Then transfer it to a new container. Cover it with plastic wrap while it is hot.

Cooking tips:It's absolutely important to bake the puff and stir fry the batter successfully. It's actually not difficult. It's just to finish every small step truthfully. Stir fry the dough until it's glossy and there's a film on the bottom of the pot. The second is to add the egg liquid in several times. When the spatula is stirred and the batter is hung, an inverted triangle will appear to indicate that the batter is well mixed. Finally, the flower mouth. Use a star flower mouth with a diameter of more than 1.5cm. Only in this way can the extruded lightning puff expand and look good. The egg liquid should be added before the batter cools down. Otherwise, the state you see will be inaccurate. Milk will be used for all the liquid. The milk flavor will be better and the color will be better. But the skin will be softer and the expansion will be smaller. Water will be used for all the liquid. On the contrary. A little salt in the batter will make it crisper. A little sugar will make the color better. Use low flour for all flour. The puff skin will be thinner, bigger and softer. Use high flour for all flour. The puff skin will be thicker, slightly smaller and crisper. Delicious cooking
