Popovers From Neiman Marcus Recipes

THE BIGGEST FATTEST FLUFFIEST POPOVER RECIPE

Steps:

• Warm the eggs by placing them UN-CRACKED in a medium bowl and cover with hot water (as hot as your tap will go). Let them sit for 10 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 450°F and move the oven rack to a low position (to prepare for huge popovers!). Grease the popover pan thoroughly inside each cup as well as around the top edges.
• With your whisk, beat together the eggs, milk and salt until they are combined. The yolks should be completely blended in.
• Add the flour and whisk until the mixture is frothy and all large lumps are gone. Then quickly stir in the melted butter.
• Divide the batter between the prepared popover cups. They should be about 3/4 of the way full.
• Bake the popovers for 20 minutes and then reduce the heat to 350°F. Bake for another 10 or 15 minutes. The popovers will be very golden brown.
• My preference is to serve immediately and enjoy them warm!

NEIMAN MARCUS POPOVERS RECIPE - (3.7/5)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450F. Place the milk in a bowl and microwave on high for 2 minutes, or until warm to the touch. Sift the flour, salt, and baking powder together in a large mixing bowl. Crack the eggs into the work bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a whisk and beat on medium speed for about 3 minutes, until foamy and pale in color. Turn down the mixer to low and add the warm milk. Gradually add the flour mixture and beat on medium speed for about 2 minutes. Turn the machine off and let the batter rest for 1 hour at room temperature. Spray a popover tin generously with nonstick spray. Fill the popover cups almost to the top with the batter and place the popover tin on a cookie sheet. Transfer to the oven and bake for 15 minutes. Turn down the oven temperature to 375F and bake for 30 to 35 minutes longer, until the popovers are a deep golden brown on the outside and airy on the inside. Turn out the popovers and serve hot with strawberry butter. CHEF'S NOTE: The key to making great popovers is having the eggs and milk warm before mixing. It is also important to let the batter sit for an hour before baking it. Popovers do not freeze well and pre-made batter has a tendency not to work properly the next day. To make this recipe, you will need a Teflon-lined popover pan with a 12-cup capacity. These are available at kitchen equipment and specialty stores, and some cooking mail-order catalogs. (Editor's Note: muffin pans or custard cups may also be used to make popovers.)

STRAWBERRY BUTTER (NEIMAN MARCUS)

Steps:

• Place butter in a bowl.
• Mix with an electrical mixer until light & fluffy.
• Add preserves, mixing until well combined.
• Serve spooned or piped into ramekins.
• Store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• Bring to room temp before serving.

MUFFIN PAN POPOVERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F and position the oven rack on a lower shelf. (See Kelly's Notes.)
• Place the eggs in a bowl of hot water for 10 minutes.
• Generously grease a standard 12-cup muffin pan all over (including the areas around the cups) with unsalted butter.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk and salt until the mixture is well combined. Add the flour and continue whisking until the mixture is frothy. (There shouldn't be any large lumps.)
• Quickly whisk in the melted butter until combined then divide the the batter among the muffin cups, filling them 2/3 to 3/4 full.
• Bake the popovers for 20 minutes without opening the oven door. Reduce the heat to 350°F (again without opening the door), and bake the popovers for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, until they're a deep, golden brown. (See Kelly's Notes.)
• Remove the popovers from the oven, release them from the pan and serve immediately.
