  2. Cook Choux Pastry: Combine water, whole milk, unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and salt in a saucepan. Boil, then add bread flour, stirring until a thick paste forms.
  3. Steam Out Moisture: Transfer the mixture to a stand mixer and mix for 3-5 minutes until cool.
  4. Incorporate Eggs: Add eggs one at a time, mixing until smooth and glossy, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Pipe Dough: Spoon the batter into a piping bag and pipe circular rings on parchment squares.
  6. Fry Crullers: Heat oil to 370°F (188°C) and fry cruller rings until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  7. Cool and Glaze: Drain fried crullers, prepare glaze, dip crullers in glaze, and sprinkle with strawberry sugar.
