CHUKI with maple syrup, curry & pineapple
Inspirations:
A variation of Makizushi (sushi rolls) in a sweet form. Japanese Makizushi also follows trends based on their (vegetarian - sweet) variations. Using a Panini grill as a new way of baking cream puff dough, I obtained a thin layer of pastry as a result. It appeared obvious to me to roll this sheet similarly to how maki are rolled. The flavours are based on maple and curry, which have the same molecular properties and thus complement each other perfectly.
