Ingredients :
- 60 g almond powder
- 100 g powdered sugar
- 60 g egg white (about 2 eggs)
- 25 g granulated sugar
- 5 g powdered green tea (matcha)
- some sweet red bean paste
Method :
- Push the almond powder through a tamis and then add the powdered sugar and the matcha. Then sift them together.
- Beat the egg white, adding the granulated sugar in two times, and beat them until stiff peaks form.
- Add the powders into the egg white, I usually do it in two times. With a spatula, try to turn the mixture over so that the foam won"t break down too much.
- When it"s roughly mixed, do the "macaronage". Using a skepper, push the mixture onto the bowl to break the extra bubbles. It"s done when the surface is shiny and it drops smoothly but not too liquid.
- Put it in a piping bag. Use a silicon sheet for macarons if you have. If not, use the baking sheet. I also put a sheet of carton paper under the baking (or silicon) sheet. Pipe the dough on the sheet, keep it upright, until about 2 cm. Keep enough distance to other macarons.
- Leave them for several hours to dry until they make skins. It takes many hours in the humid weather.
- Bake in the oven preheated at 160 degree C for about 13-4 minutes. They make cracks when the lower heat is too strong, and they bust when the upper heat is weak, so I put them on the top position (very close to the ceiling of the oven). Turn the board in the middle of the baking.
- Cool them down and remove from the sheet. Spread the bean paste or ganache on a macaron coque and bind with another. Enjoy!
