--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     1/4  cup           milk
     1/2  stick         unsalted butter
     1/4  teaspoon      salt
     1/2  cup           flour
   2      large         eggs
   1      cup           fresh grated Parmesan

In a small heavy saucepan combine the milk, 1/4 cup water, the butter, and
the salt.  Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.  Reduce the heat to
moderate, add the flour all at once, and beat the mixture with a wooden spoon
until it leaves the side of the pan and forms a ball.  Transfer the mixture
to a bowl, whisk in the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each
addition and stir in the Parmesan and pepper to taste.  Drop the batter in 8
mounds on a buttered baking sheet and bake the puffs in the upper third of a
preheated 400 oven for 20 minutes, or until they are crisp and golden.  The
puffs may be stored overnight in an airtight container.
