Comment faire Paris-Brest

Pourquoi commencer ici

Paris-Brest belongs to the everyday cooking of classic pâtisseries, where its aroma calls everyone to the table. This home version keeps the flavors direct and generous, the way a family cook serves it.

The Paris-Brest, a creation born from the world of cycling, commemorates the Paris-Brest-Paris bicycle race. Initially crafted in the early 20th century, this ring-shaped pastry is a nod to the bicycle wheel itself. In French households and pâtisseries, it appears as a regular indulgence, bridging the gap between everyday dessert and special treat with its inviting aroma. Expect a crisp, golden exterior that gives way to a light, airy center. The choux pastry is complemented by a rich praline cream, with the vanilla and butter notes echoing each bite. It's a dish that invites simple pleasure, served as a centerpiece for both casual and festive occasions.
