Madeleines With Pastry Chef Hyoju Park Of Madeleine De Proust Pâtisserie

Today’s guest is Hyoju Park, pastry chef and co-owner of Madeleine de Proust Pâtisserie in Melbourne, Australia. Her bakery and creative studio specializes in madeleines, the small French sponge cakes known for their shell-like shape. Hyoju’s creations are anything but traditional and incorporate unexpected flavors, textures, and designs. She joins host Jessie Sheehan to talk about discovering madeleines for the first time when she was 14 in Korea, training in London, and how she and her business partner, Rong Yao Soh, started Madeleine de Proust as a pop-up before opening a brick-and-mortar. She also talks about their book, “Madeleine: Simple Bakes for Every Mood,” which has recipes ranging from Earl Grey and French toast madeleines to matcha red bean mochi, lemon meringue, and black truffle. Then, Hyoju walks through the Pink Carnation Madeleines recipe from the book, which was inspired by her mom and includes several components: a lemon yuzu ganache, black tea ganache, yuzu syrup and glaze, and pink chocolate enrobage.
