My friends are taking over a Pub/Restaurant and we are looking for ideas to put on the Menu. Many years ago my Husband and I had a French Restaurant in Wales and one of the most popular Starters was our Beignets Souffles with Tomato Coulis - wonderful memories, I can still taste the little puff pastry balls now!!! I realise there is a slight difference between Beignets & Gougeres as the Beignets were deep fried and not baked in the oven but I am sure the end result will be fantastic. Merci Bien!!!

I really think the cool thing about gougères is that you can really make some ahead of time. Freeze and then et voilà! Funny Fabienne, I also had mine yesterday with soup! Ah Flo, Gregoire, c'est vrai, il est coquin et gourmand, comme sa maman? ;-) Thanks farmgirl, yes nothing better than a great vineyard experience, I would still do them now! Ivonne, you are too cute! I am really just average, really, but enjoy doing it! Katy, yes funny idea, you should surprise them all with it! Thanks all for your nice comments.

You think it would be a little over the top to build it into a pyramid like they do for weddings? hahaha. Wow, I have never tried to make my choux savory, I will have to try it out.

How wonderful that she inspired you to write this post on gougeres, as now I have another wonderful recipe to try! I particularly love the idea of serving these at wine-tasting events ... I'm currently taking a wine course and was thinking of hosting a little tasting chez moi ... now I know what I'll serve! Merci!

I never would have known about gourgeres. This sounds like a very nice compliment to soups or just on its own. Hi Bea,
