RECIPE STEPS
1/ Macaroon pastry
INGREDIENTS
- 300 g powdered white almonds
- 300 g semolina sugar
- 120 g icing sugar
- 150 g egg whites
- 120 g semolina sugar

Sift together the almond powder, semolina sugar and icing sugar. Add egg whites and heat up to 45ºC in a double-boiler.
Cook 120 g of semolina sugar and water up to 122ºC. Turn it out on to the first mixture. Maintain the mixture at 45ºC in a double-boiler. Use a 6 mm piping bag to make up small balls on greaseproof paper. These balls will flatten out to 2 mm thick disks and should be 35 mm in diameter at the end.
Let them dry out overnight at 20ºC.
The following day, split the macaroons down the middle with the wet point of a small pantry knife and bake at 170ºC in a fan oven.
Unstick macaroons. Once they are cool lay out half of the macaroon shells and recover the other half.
