My Favorite Macaroons (Kinako)
- 30 grams Egg white
- 30 grams Granulated sugar
- 30 grams A Almond powder
- 30 grams A Powdered sugar
- 2 grams A Kinako
- 30 grams B Unsalted butter
- 5 grams B Powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp B Kinako
- Here are the ingredients for the batter: the egg whites, the granulated sugar, and the sifted A ingredients.
- Make a French meringue with stiff peaks.
- Fold in the A ingredients in 2 batches.
- Mix lightly so the delicate meringue aren't crushed.
- The batter will be fluffy.
- Now start the"macaronnage" mixing process.
- Mix by pressing the batter down toward the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula.
- Continue the "macaronnage" mixing until the batter is creamy, smooth and firm, and drips slowly from the spatula when you lift it up.
- The finished batter will be shiny and smooth.
- Pipe the batter into any size macarons you desire.
- Remove any air bubbles and then sprinkle kinako roasted soy flour (not listed).
- Let the macarons dry out until the batter does not stick to your finger when you touch them.
- Put the macarons into an oven preheated to 320F/160C and turn the temperature down to 265F/130C.
- Bake for about 15 minutes.
- After they cool, spread cream filling on the macarons and sandwich together.
- For this recipe I used kinako buttercream.
- Just mix together the B ingredients to make it.
- Done.
- The beautiful "pied" or "foot" is a special characteristic of macarons.
- Macarons are so cute (The photo shows macarons filled with kinako ganache)
