TODAY IN TRIVIA: National Chocolate Eclair Day
~An éclair is a delicate, individual pastry made with chou paste (choux paste, pâte à choux, cream puff pastry dough).
~The dough is piped from a pastry bag in an oblong or log shape on baking pans, and baked until it is crisp and hollow inside.
~As an English language word, its first appearance was in the 1706 edition of Edward Phillips’s New World of English Words: ‘Petits Choux, a sort of Paste for garnishing, made of fat Cheese, Flour, Eggs, Salt, etc., bak’d in a Pye_pan, and Ic’d over with fine Sugar.‘ It did not really come into general use until the late 19th or early 20th century.
