    I just made these! This is my 2nd time trying the Italian method after failing with the French way 6-7 times before and they came out great! I baked them 270F for 20 minutes and some were a bit lopsided but other than that, they were chewy, not hollow, not cracked, and had the feet! I couldn’t resist adding extra lemon juice to the ganache but they taste just as refreshing and amazing :) thank you!

    • @BakenLondon
      @BakenLondon  6 років тому

      So happy they worked for you! If some are lopsided it’s likely your oven isn’t circulating heat evenly. Try avoid putting macaroons near those spots next time :)

    Mine didnt work ): I totally blame myself not the recipe cause I probably did something wrong. It was too soft, when I piped they just colapsed. I know its not because of my meringue bc I’m used to making italian meringue and the consistency was perfect. Could it be because I over mixed my batter? Or under mixed? What’s weird is that I stopped when it had a “lava” consistency, it was just like yours. I was able to form an 8 with it without breaking and all

    Thank you! Is there a temperature at which you start beating the egg whites while you wait for the sugar syrup to get to 120 C? Also, what speed do you use before and after you add the sugar syrup?

    • @BakenLondon
      @BakenLondon  4 роки тому

      Hi there, I usually beat the egg whites to a foamy soft peak consistency as the sugar gets to temperature. If it reaches soft peak before the sugar is ready, I will stop the whisking and start it about 15 seconds before pouring in.

    • @BakenLondon
      @BakenLondon  3 роки тому +1

      Glad you liked the video! I’m afraid I haven’t tried lowering the sugar but macarons are quite finnicky so it’s probably not a good idea. Using the French method will reduce the sugar per macaron but it’s also much less consistent. Hope that helps!

    Hi
    Is it possible to use half of your recipe as below ? Does it work that way ? Thanks for your advices.
    For the macaron shells (Almond Paste):
    35g Egg White
    100g Almond Flour
    100g Icing Sugar
    For the macaron shells (Italian Meringue):
    35g Egg White
    100g Castor Sugar
    25ml Water

    • @BakenLondon
      @BakenLondon  5 років тому

      I wouldn’t recommend halfing this recipe because it is very hard mix hot syrup into very little egg white without it over cooking.
      If you want to make a smaller batch then try the French method or make a full batch then freezing the macarons. They keep in freezer in air tight containers for up to one month.

      Hi there! It really depends on how tangy the lemon is. For me that’s usually between 15 - 30ml. Any more then the filling may become too runny. As for halving the recipe, I wouldn’t recommend it because it is really hard to whip egg whites up in smaller quantities. Hope this helps!

      That is quite normal. I don't know the exact science on why the colour isn't as strong after baking but my guess is that the caramelisation dilutes the appearance a bit. Just add a little bit more colouring next time :)

      Glad it worked for you! You can leave it out for longer than 20 min but try not do it for too long as it will dry out the shell too much and cause it to crack. If only some of your shells are cracking, it could be your oven not heating overly. Try moving the rack position to see if it makes a difference

      I usually have it on medium / medium high so that the syrup doesn’t splatter everywhere but fast enough to not let the egg cook. Once all of it is in, I switch it to a high speed. Every stand mixer is a little bit different, if you are not sure then always go for a speed higher than you think to be on the safe side

      It will be hard to whisk up the eggs if you only use half. Try a french macaron recipe instead! There is one on my channel, just replace the colour and filling if you want lemon. Definitely not grill mode. Use a mode that heats it evenly (sorry modes are different for every oven!)

    i use hand mixers generally and the macarons turn out fine. does it have to be a stand mixer? Also, for the italian meringue method, you do not have to make the macarons rest. Why do you have to in this recipe?

    • @BakenLondon
      @BakenLondon  4 роки тому

      Hey there, you can use a hand mixer but a stand mixer makes things easier and safer. Hot syrup can be very dangerous, using a mixer is just one less thing to worry about when pouring in the hot syrup. In terms of resting, it helps form a skin to force air out the bottom for those macaron feet. Most French and Italian recipes recommends this. For example both Laduree and Pierre Hermès includes this step too. I’ve experimented with many recipes and haven’t had much success with recipes that don’t require resting. Would love to try if you have a recipe that works without resting!

    It started when I added my eggs whites to the icing and almond mixture. Didn’t turn out like yours? I measured everything with grams.

    • @BakenLondon
      @BakenLondon  5 років тому +2

      So this could be a number of things. Firstly make sure your egg white meringue has been whipped and cooled to a really glossy and thick consistency. If the sugar syrup hasn’t been incorporated properly you won’t get that structure in the batter to keep it thick. Secondly, really pay attention to how you’re folding (this isn’t mixing remember!) in the egg whites into the almond paste. Over doing it will deflate the batter too much and cause it to be runny. Hope this helps!

      There can be a few reasons but a good starting point is to check your oven temperature is accurate with a thermometer. Too high temps will cause the inside to collapse.
