Rosemary Gougères

Here is a simple and traditional French appetizer.  
The gougères are basically "pâte à choux" and cheese. So delicious, and quick to make.
In our recipe, we decided to add some rosemary for more flavors. Some, like to stuff the choux with mushrooms, or pretty much anything that complements the cheesy choux!

Step 1: Melt your butter in water in a medium saucepan. Add salt. Then remove from heat, and add flour. Mix with a spatula, or wooden spoon, until well blended. It will look like a thick paste/dough. 

Step 2: Add grated cheese (we put Gruyere). Mix into the dough. Add one by one the eggs, and mix thoroughly, after each egg. The dough looks like it pulls apart, but if you continue mixing, it will come back together. Add chopped rosemary, season with pepper, and nutmeg. 

Step 3: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, and line parchment on a baking sheet. Pipe small puffs on your baking sheet. Cooks for 40-45 minutes. Do not open the oven door while cooking. Use your oven light to determine if the choux are cooked thoroughly (lightly brown).
