Pate a Choux

[LNorman]

What are some of the savory fillings that members use for pate a choux?

[petite tête de chou]

Wild mushroom duxelles.

[Lysbeth]

Home made chicken liver mousse and soft herb cheese... YUM! (not together of course each in their own little puff)

[jackal10]

Smoked salmon, dill cream cheese

Onion confit

Rillette (esp potted beef)

Blue cheese cream

egg and onion mayo

[Tonyy13]

Of course, you could fill them w/ a nice Mornay sauce (white sauce w/ cheese) to make quick gougeres (sp?).... Foie gras mousse too, would be nice..

I just wanted to bump this thread up and see if we can get some answers for LNorman.

I second the Curried chicken salad, also good with any other type meat salads. I particularly like deviled ham salad, made with a Virginia (or Kentuky) country ham. Also shrimp and tuna salad go well in Pate a Choux.

You can think of baked pate a choux as a plain base for any number of canapes or fried pata a choux as a base for fritter type preparations. You have an almost endless number of options.
