Par Frédéric CASSEL
FOR THIS RECIPE
- A recipe for approximately 150 macarons
RECIPE STEPS
1/ Yellow passion fruit macaron biscuit
INGREDIENTS
- 400 g blanched grated almonds
- 400 g icing sugar
- 160 g Egg white
- 160 g Egg white (for the meringue)
- 400 g sucre
- 120 g water
- Sevarôme lemon yellow colour
- Sevarôme strawberry red colour
Combine the almonds and icing sugar and mix with the first quantity of egg whites and colours. Heat the sugar and water to 121 °C. When the sugar reaches 115 °C, start whisking the egg whites with the egg white powder. Once whisked, but not too firm, set the mixer to the 2nd speed, and slowly pour in the cooked sugar. Cool at the fast speed setting until it reaches 50 °C.
Remove the bowl from the mixer and gradually incorporate the Italian meringue into the first mixture (almonds and sugar, raw egg whites and colours); slightly deflate the mixture and pipe.
NB: Depending on the piping method used, the mixture will need to be deflated to varying amounts. When using a piping machine, deflate the batter as little as possible, whereas manual piping can be done with a more deflated mixture.
