BEST MACARON - NO HOLLOW!

[@lxb130vn]

Thank you so much! This is the best recipe of all recipes I have tried (KZbin, baking books, baking blogs). The macronage is what makes the differences that finally allows me to achieve the full and fluffy macarons. Even the meringue instructions are so simple and exact.

I'm certified pastry chef. I learned how to make Macs for the first time in culinary school. I probably made them 300 times since. Not once have I ever made them perfectly. I have watched countless tutorials and adjusted my recipes a million times. Never in my entire life have I seen a video that was so informative. Your technique and your explanation was superb. I typically approach making macarons with a bad attitude, because it is always hit or miss. But I am so excited to try this method. Thank you!!!

My search is finally over! Truly exactly what I’ve been searching for and trying to attain. Can’t thank you enough for your recipe and instructions! I’m so glad it’s noted in the comments that this recipe uses carton egg whites as I think that is really important to know concerning the meringue takes a bit longer than using fresh eggs, which is what I typically have used in the past for French macarons. I’m tired of the waste and the separating so this is refreshing! My macs are beautiful, shiny, dainty feet, full, and the no rest baking instructions is absolutely fabulous. First time trying the “reverse method” of macaronage and I won’t go back to the “conventional way.” Thank you again.

The crazy part about this is that I literally just found out that you want smaller puffy feet vs large feet. This is the second time I’ve heard of this and I’ve been making macs for over 2 months and follow a lot of bakers. I tend to get hollows because I tend to stop my macaronage at a certain point.

I was on a mission to make them, threw away five batches, all doubles, was hopping to finally do the no rest method. Spent all day, did convection, tried conventional, did temperatures . They did not bake fully, last one baked 24 min at 320F, hollow, straight to garbage. I have to go back to my old making with resting. What a pity! I’m in South America, humidity is 78%, but my Swiss macs always do great after resting under AC for 60 min. I was just trying to eliminate the waiting time. But , it’s a great video, thanks! BTW, my batter was excellent with your method 🤗

[@23cadybug]

Do you let them rest at all before going into the oven? We tried your method tonight and they cracked. Current humidity in my house is 65% so I really think humidity is playing a factor for me. Our batter looked exactly like yours as far as the smoothness and run.

[@vexxedliberal4160]

Before I tried this recipe, I kept getting hollows. I tried your recipe and method and made essentially perfect macarons, at least with 1 batch. By far the best recipe I've tried. Only issue I have is sometimes I get batter that won't become thinner as stir it. I think it's because I'm not mixing the correct percentage of meringue to the dry ingredients at the different macaronage stages.

We need more videos. Like when making multiple colors.

I could cry. Thank you so much, sir. The only thing that didn’t work for me was the oven-dry method, the shells ended up super fragile and wrinkly. But the batch that rested turned out ok. The shell doesn’t have the crumble that I had with other recipes but I’ll take the fullness over that!! Quick question, though… if I wanted to add cocoa to make them chocolate, should I substitute some of the powder sugar for the cocoa or can I just add it? How about freeze-dried strawberries/raspberries?

[@laurabarbour4434]

I just add good quality cocoa powder. I don’t subtract anything.

[@tanjaconnor4545]

I had this same issue. I’ve never had wrinkles so I’m guessing it dropped my oven temp too much. Mine is not convection though - is yours ? I am just waiting to pull them while my second tray is resting. How long did you leave the rested tray to bake ? 15 or 18 minutes ?

I used a recipe that worked fine last week. I used the same recipe today. Did your dough method and got it drizzling fast off the spatula and settling into the mix after 10 seconds from drizzling off spatula. Poured into piping bag like you did. Piped straight up and down like you did. Ruffled the macaron mat. Even popped other bubbles I saw with my scribe. Then into the preheated 300 oven. Ok I changed to 295 because my digital thermometer says it runs hot. And left the door open for 3 min. Then shut it and was going to rotate the tray half thru but after not even 3 min, I could see cracks already forming in the top of every mac! I rotated half way thru and finished it out. Meantime I made a double batch and am letting the other tray dry first.

Yep me too. Not cracks but wavy tops. However they were NOT hollow. So I’m considering this a bit of a gain. I blew it. I put a dash of egg powder in the sugar. I mean dash yet I’ve not had positive luck with egg powder at all. I also think my oven runs too hot. Any suggestions? Yay, no hollows.

[@tanjaconnor4545]

@@Susan..I just saw another commenter say they had the same issue with the first tray using oven dry but the batch that rested while the first cooked were perfect. So maybe oven dry doesn’t work for all over ? I think my temp dropped too much using that method since I don’t have convection.

thank you for such an informative video :) I have been in macaron mode this week trying recipes using the French and Italian method Taunt Pour Taunt. But each time i do the French method, during the Macaronage, the batter seems to keep getting thicker and thicker. I don't know why lol.... my arm is killing me afterwards with only very thick results in the batter. I too also have a KA artisan and i don't go above 8 when whipping my meringue but my meringue never has all those gorgeous pointy tips when i lift it up. I am going to try your recipe and technique today. :) I won't say wish me luck cause i want to be confident but any suggestions on the Macaronage and why my batter gets thicker would be appreciated. I'm getting Macaronage anxiety lol hopefully not with your recipe. thank you so much .....ps my oven is electric, and my kitchen is very cold. could that make the batter thick during the Macagonage?.... Update.... it was the best Meringue i ever made. looked just like yours. I solved my cold KA bowl by using my small blow torch while whipping. The Meringue was BEAUTIFUL :) ....but once again, when i did the Macaronage, the batter only got thicker. I Macaronaged for 30 mins and it never flowed. My bowl with the almond meal and powdered sugar was cold so i don't know if that is an issue or do i need to add more egg whites? or maybe put a heating pad under the bowl lol ....our apt complex just installed new granite countertops and they stay so cold.

I must say! I’ve been using the Swiss method almost exclusively, but now I’m tempted to try French again. Can I do your oven-dry method in both: 1) a conventional gas oven (no fan), and 2) the Ninja 10-in-1 countertop convection oven (with fan)? I’ve seen (and tried) lower temperatures for the no-rest method in the Ninja only, for example: 3 min propped door @ 250 then 14 min @ 295 then 3 min propped door oven off Is the higher heat (300) throughout the entire bake more ideal? I’d love a consistent no-rest method to crank out full and fluffy shells!

Thank you for your video. Would love to try this today. May I ask if you fresh eggs or age eggs? .

[@levietenorio7326]

I meant did you use age eggs or room temperature eggs. Thank you again.

I might have missed this. I'd like to know this too.

Thank you so much for your reply. Your videos are very helpful to all the viewers who love to bake French Macarons. Appreciated it a lot.

I just use eggs straight out of the refrigerator:)

[@selianemiller4987]

Is the egg whites room temperature or it doesn’t mater?

[@debbiefiguerascano]

I would love to try your recipe and techniques but can’t find the ingredient quantities. How do I find that? Thanks!

[@vevevanessa]

My first tray came out great but my second tray got darker and the tops looked a bit sunk in. How would I fix this?

[@aaroncorrea2091]

i use the swiss method for my macarons could i use the dough technique for that as well?

[@helenloudon9128]

Hello Chef, I have searched in the comments but unable to find the recipe and quantities. Can you please help me?

[@sudishanaidoo830]

Loved the way you explained this technique of making these Lil headaches🤣...was wondering if it's necessary to age egg whites? TIA

[@AladdinSane13]

I’ve found that aging the egg whites is only really necessary when you’re using a French recipe because of how weak the merengue is. When you use the Swiss and Italian methods you don’t have to (in my experience )

[@AladdinSane13]

For the record, I make Swiss merengue and I gotta heat the egg whites up to melt the sugar down so room temp and aged whites didn’t really make a difference in my merengue. Definitely do it for the French though since you’ll need the extra insurance to help strengthen the macaron

Thank you Nick!

I never age my egg whites!
