Nun's farts (also euphemized as nun's puffs) are a dessert pastry originally from France, and now seen in French Canada, the United States, and England. ==Description== The recipe is included in an 1856 "cook book" and Oxford University's ''Household Encyclopedia'' from 1859.〔() The household encyclopedia Published 1859 Original from Oxford University Digitized Jun 10, 2008 page 257〕〔Hannah Widdifield (Hannah Widdifield Widdifield's new cook book ); or, Practical receipts for the housewife Peterson, 1856 Original from the New York Public Library Digitized Aug 7, 2008 410 pages page 181〕 The dessert is made from butter, milk, flour, sugar, eggs, and sometimes honey.〔 Recipes call for pan frying (traditionally in lard), re-frying and then baking, or baking straight away.〔〔 The best-established recipes suggest cooking the butter, milk, and flour in a pan then adding the eggs (whites last) and sprinkling sugar on the mixture before baking.〔 Choux paste is also cooked twice, to prepare the paste and to "transform it into puffs". It dates to medieval times and is a cross between a batter and a dough.〔 A cream filling can also be inserted.〔Mrs. C. M. Crawford (Houston Civic Club cook book ) Authors Houston Civic Club (Houston, Tex.), Publisher s.n., 1906 Original from the New York Public Library Digitized Jul 22, 2008 128 pages〕 The dessert has been described as "light tender morsels" that are "heavenly".〔Tricia Laning (New cook book ) Edition 12, illustrated Meredith Books, 2005 ISBN 978-0-696-22732-5 pages 639 Better Homes and Gardens page 126〕 Another description describes them as a "cream puff batter that bakes like a popover.〔REDISCOVER GREAT HOME- BAKING Architecture v. 63, nos. 1-6 - 1985 Better homes and gardens〕 Recipes for nun's puffs are also included in two Virginia cookbooks.〔Mary Stuart Smith (Virginia cookery-book ) (from a South Carolina lady) Compiled by Mary Stuart Smith Harper, 1912 Original from Harvard University Digitized Jun 29, 2007 352 pages page 29〕〔(in old Virginia: containing contributions from two hundred and fifty of Virginia's noted housewives, distinguished for their skill in the culinary art and other branches of domestic economy ) Compiled by Marion Cabell Tyree Favorite Recipes Press, 1965 Original from the University of Michigan Digitized Aug 28, 2009 528 pages 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nun's puffs」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
