1/4 tsp. salt
pinch ground nutmeg
3/4 cup water
6 tbsps, unsalted butter, cut in 6 pieces

To make profiteroles, sift together flour, salt and nutmeg. In a medium saucepan, bring water and butter to boil. Remove form heat and add dry ingredients all at once. Beat with wooden spoon for about 1 minute until well blended and mixture starts to pull away form the sides of pan, then set the pan over low heat and cook mixture for about 2 minutes, beating constantly. Remove from heat.

Beat 1 egg in small bowl and set aside. Add remaining eggs, one at a time, to the flour mixture, beating well after each. Add beaten egg by teaspoonfuls until the dough is smooth and shinyand it should pull away and fall slowly when dropped from a spoon.

Using a tablespoon, drop dough onto the baking sheet in 12 mounds, Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until pastry is well risen and browned. Turn off oven and leave puffs to cool with oven door open.
