Chef's Notes
Do not open the oven door while the choux pastry is baking, or your eclairs will deflate faster than a royal promise during an election year.

Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Opening the oven too early during baking, causing your majestic pastry puffs to instantly collapse into sad, flat pancakes of despair.

Starch Retrogradation Reversal
Storage Science
Store at room temperature in a breathable bread bag or paper wrapper for up to 2 days. DO NOT refrigerate, as the cold accelerates starch retrogradation (staling). For long-term storage, freeze tightly wrapped.
Reheating Science
To reverse staling, flick a few drops of water onto the crust and reheat in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 5-8 minutes. The steam will re-gelatinize the starches, making the crumb soft and the crust crisp.
