Holiday breakfast with choux pastry made for my grandchildren - Choux Salé
This morning's breakfast.
To take to my grandchildren today,
my husband baked some choux pastry for cream puffs yesterday, so I set some aside and made them into a savory choux salé this morning, filled with cream cheese, tomato, plum shio-koji, and basil.
I had never thought of eating choux pastry as a savory dish, but my husband made it for me.
I had some frozen prosciutto, but it was stuck together and I couldn't get two slices out, so I'll save that for next time.
Even without the prosciutto, the richness of the choux pastry was surprisingly prominent, making it voluminous and unexpectedly delicious.

The side dishes were rosemary roasted potatoes, sausages, a fried egg, and pickled purple cabbage.

And for the homemade yogurt, I drizzled it with shiso juice, giving it a soft pink color.

Because it's a holiday morning, we take things a little slower and a little more carefully.
We are also having the choux pastry for breakfast
that I baked with my grandchildren in mind.
I feel a small sense of happiness in such casual moments.
We'll eat heartily this morning and spend the rest of the day feeling energized.
I hope you all have a wonderful holiday as well.
