They are an absolute delight, but a serious pain in the ass to make, and quite finicky to make correctly. Not over-rated IMO.
You need to do the beeswax + butter to coat them. Not too thick, not too thin. Get the copper molds if you can afford them.
Age the custard for 2 days.
Use a scale to figure out the exact amount you need and then you can go off level for the next ones.
One of the most important things is to make sure the custard is thoroughly stirred before adding it to the molds.
Ideally you want to stir custard, pour, and put in oven within a minute or 2 max. If you don't they will come out hollow.
You'll need to figure out the precise temp settings for you oven. They burn pretty easily.
They really are much better if you wait the full 2 hours after cooking them.
Solid advice. I've seen it vary between all purpose or bread flour. What do you think gives the best result?
I too think that copper molds and beeswax/clarified butter are the way to go.
Dang those look nice.
I don't think I've compared the two.
Very interesting, can honestly say I've n ever seen a recipe call for Bee's Wax before.
Here's a picture of one from my last batch.
Are you avoiding naming these mini bunt cakes, for a reason?
They are called canelles, or canelè, and they are a 2 bite baked custard traditionally flavored with vanilla bean and rum.
You coat the molds with a mixture of melted butter and beeswax. It gives a unique taste and texture to outside.
If you like custard they are one of the best pastries ever.
Sounds absolutely based and I don't even eat sweet things.
I just assumed ppl would either know what they are or have seen the pic name
You need copper molds or else they wont get a nice shell
A woman posted this btw
Op will never be a woman
Shut the fuck up homosexual
make rum babas instead
How dare you suggest such things? The mighty canelle is better, but significantly more work to make.
frogshit. Rum Babas have to be proofed and baked. Canele is just flan.
No it is not "just flan" the frogshit you are smelling is coming from your own ass and titties.
Damn you are big retarded, canele are far harder to bake than a yeast cake.
Classic twitter brain symptom. She has zero understanding of what a canelle is and still felt the urge to express her remarkably uninformed opinion for some reason. Sad, but there is still hope for her.
I made this:
They are definitely harder to make than yeasted cakes.
I know. I was talking about this guy
to you.
Made them myself once and had the "real deal" in Bordeaux later (which wasn't all that different).
I would say they're a bit overhyped. I expected them to be really caramelized and crunchy on the outside but they're mostly leathery.
you guys are so weird lol
Why would you say such kind things about us?
What are thesea? Goatsies?
Get your mind out of the gutter, son.
