I'm a Baking & Pastry Arts major at Johnson & Wales University and had successfully made macarons numerous times this past year as a freshman. Since then, I had been eager to attempt them outside of that setting. I will definitely be using this recipe again! I wish I could somehow post a picture to show you how they actually came out.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14484575294998410928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972173459050825613.post-11964202514942984492014-04-22T14:48:06.854-07:002014-04-22T14:48:06.854-07:00Hi Phouthasak and thanks for stopping by!

There is a great blog post about troubleshooting macarons here (http://notsohumblepie.blogspot.com/2010/08/macaron-troubleshooting-new-recipe.html) that can maybe help you out. You never want to overmix or overbake or underbake it.

I'm sorry this recipe did not turn o...Hi Joyce. I'm sorry this recipe did not turn out for you. After reading your comment yesterday morning, I made a batch of these macarons last night so I could count the number of folds it takes me to get the mix right. It took me 43 folds. But it could vary by each mix you do, so I say anywhere from 40-50 folds should be alright depending on your mix. Sometimes I think it's even taken me 55 folds. But when in doubt, it's always better to under fold than over because once you go over, you can't go back. At least when you under fold, you know you can refold a couple more times to get the mix right.<br /><br />Regarding feet, there are many factors such as your mixture being over or under, etc. But one factor I am aware of is the humidity. I think it's best to make sure you have low humidity in the house when making macarons because these cookies don't like moisture in the air. I've read that it's not good to bake when you have high humidity such as when it's raining outside, etc. I've noticed that the last few times I've made macarons, last night included, they've all come out with perfect feet and the humidity was low around 58-59%. <br /><br />I hope this helps and that you will give it another try at making macarons. Don't feel discouraged. It took me a few tries until I got it right when I first started baking macarons. Good luck and let me know if you were successful. And thank you so much for stopping by.mzricheehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07529971909389085961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972173459050825613.post-51201186316841567132013-08-19T05:19:44.774-07:002013-08-19T05:19:44.774-07:00Hi!

I tried using your recipe but it didnt turn out well..it does have shorter feet but I think it was too stiff that no matter how much i bang the trays before drying or using my fingers to smoothen them out, it does not look smooth like yours. <br />May I know whats your speed when using your electric mixer and may i know exactly when should i stop folding my mixture? I know i might have under fold them but I'm still in doubt on whether how much I should fold. Roughly about how long or number of folds should I fold after the dry ingredients are incorporated? <br /><br />Hope to hear from you soon!

For someone who rarely bakes, I say don't be discouraged if your macarons don't turn out like the photos above. Even some seasoned bakers won't tackle these. It took me several trial and error until I got the shells to come out just right. But who's to say you can't make perfect macarons on a first try? I say go ahead and give it a try. Just remember, it may take a few batches until you get them looking just right.

And that's because I don't turn the oven on right away when I'm making the batter. But yes, you can let the piped batter sit for 30-60 minutes depending on humidity. Or if you're in a hurry you can probably do it at 15 minutes. But for sure, you must let these rest, even for those short 15 minutes. Sometimes you can get away with them not sitting, but I say to be safe you should let these sit. You don't want your cookies coming out without any feet by not resting, or having rest them too long and have no feet show up.
