These dried shells are very shelf stable. The rhum syrup you soak them in bring them back to life. This is a very cool dessert, the baba or savarin can be made in many different molds and served many different ways.

any amount |
| Water |
as needed |
Preparation Instructions: Baba Shell
| Put the Brioche Dough in the mixing bowl. Mix with the
paddle. |
| Add water slowly - waiting after each addition of
water until it works completely into the dough. When finished it should
be thinned to about the consistency of Pâte à Choux, slightly soft
and runny. |
| Fill the molds with the dough, proof them until
they double in size. |
| In a hot oven bake until the baba's are brown. When
done remove from the tin. |
| Baba's can be stored for weeks. They should be dried
out and quite hard. |
