  • @h.c.h-4218
    @h.c.h-4218 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Can I just say finding a tart ring roughly 18cm by 4.5 cm is mentally difficult for the task at hand? I recommend doing double the recipe and getting 20 cm tart rings and keeping the leftover pastry. Damn, I spent 50 minutes of intense searching to find a Matfer 17.5 by 4.5 ring! I'm not even joking. The company is third-party and owned by a stationary company that ships boxes and is situated in Nice. Like damn it will be worth it though haha.

      Beat the whites to soft peaks, gently fold in ground walnut and a touch of sugar : portion with a table spoon onto a cooking sheet, you have nice and easy macaroons. Walnut can be substituted by any nut, the egg whites needn't be beaten, in the older recipes, they weren't...
