Matcha Macarons - Swiss Method

[@hanlinsong2253]

Quick question, did you mix the ganache and the buttercream together in the piping bag? Love this recipe! Thank you for posting!

[@PiesandTacos]

No I didn't I filled some macarons with ganache and some with buttercream :)

[@acamicookie]

These macarons look perfect ! So original to make it with matcha I am sure it's delicious and love the color it gives ! I will have to try it ! 😘👩🏻‍🍳

[@PiesandTacos]

thank you so much!

[@yvonneboehm6527]

I made it yesterday and it was a total success. You really have the best recipes for macarons!! I just need to bake them a little bit longer so the bottom won‘t stick to the baking sheet when I try to pull them off. But I like fruity macarons more because they balance the sweetness better :)

Do you use freshly cracked egg whites or matured egg whites? Also, I love your macaron vids! New sub 💕

[@PiesandTacos]

I always use fresh, I never let them age. thank you so much 🥰

[@soniamardan1154]

Great one 👍

[@PiesandTacos]

thank you so much!

[@anitaolga4388]

Super grazie

[@dodgeball28]

I'm curious why egg white powder is decreased to 3g? (You always used 4g in previous recipes.) Thanks. Love your videos. ❤️❤️❤️

[@PiesandTacos]

because of the matcha. I felt like the 4 grams and also the matcha powder added made the shells too dry too quickly, I couldn't even poke the air bubbles because the shells immediately dried when I piped, and they came out hollow. Then I made with 3 grams (the video you see here) and it was definitely less dry and not hollow. I will re-experiment with it, because it was also a very dry day here when I attempted it. I am going to re-make with 4 grams, but I am totally fine with just the 3 grams as well.

[@nadyak3479]

you can tell which egg powder you use? Egg replacer it's good? Thanks

[@brandi_o9667]

Hello, I love all your macarons recipes. Quick question, can I use egg whites that comes from a carton or only cracked egg ones?

[@PiesandTacos]

yes you can, you have to whip them longer tho, like a lot longer typically.

[@brandi_o9667]

@@PiesandTacos I will experiment it. Thank you so much! LOVE LOVE LOVE your channel. Huge fan!

[@PiesandTacos]

@@brandi_o9667 thank you so so much 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@solacistic]

Hi ! I tried weighing the egg white powder on my scale and it just isn't working. How many teaspoons would 3g egg powder be ? Or even 4g for your normal Recipes?

[@daveflores4349]

What grade of matcha did you use? Culinary or ceremonial?

[@karenr3518]

Cam you use cream of tartar instead of egg white powder?

[@patparish7776]

Can I make the meringue using the French method or do I have to use the Italian method in order to have the macarons turn out?

[@PiesandTacos]

this is the swiss method, and the ratios I have here work better with swiss not with french or with italian

[@patparish7776]

Thank you so much for replying to my question. I guess I am comfortable with the French method, but I’m open to trying a different method.

[@sophie549]

When you say you use almond flour, is that just the same as ground almonds which is what we get in the UK? Or is almond flour slightly finer? I have searched google but not really getting a clear answer! Also... is it possible to use caster sugar instead of granulated?

[@PiesandTacos]

you should get the finest almond flour you can find. almond flour is the same as ground almonds, but for macarons the finest kind will work best. and yes you can use caster sugar.

[@mizzcachon]

I did the exact steps like you, and it come out to be hit or miss. But more misses than hit 😢 and i made 6 batches 😢 . , they have feet but not chewy at all, they crunchy and easy to break 😞

[@kaylajones774]

Could you use meringue powder instead of egg white powder? Or are they 2 completely different things?

[@PiesandTacos]

i do know of someone who uses meringue powder, but I havent tried with it, and I know of some people who used it and didnt work, but it could have been for other reasons as well.

[@fionarofl]

Also are you able you to provide us with another recipe that doesn’t require so much granulated sugar for the meringue? I see you have a 1:1 egg white to sugar ratio which is really sweet. Is it possible to lower this amount?

[@PiesandTacos]

its not recommended to lower the amount of sugar. The sugar isn't there for sweetness, it's important to the structure of the macarons.

[@fionarofl]

@@PiesandTacos yes - however is the 1:1 still needed for the meringue? I’ve seen other recipes that call for less granulated sugar in the meringue

[@PiesandTacos]

@@fionarofl most recipes that call for less granulated sugar, the difference is only 5 to 10 grams less sugar than egg whites, it really won't do much for sweetness. If you are looking for less sweet macarons make a less sweet filling, like a dark chocolate ganache, or swiss meringue buttercream, or french buttercream.

[@prncess20]

I've had a lot of success with this recipe in the past but not sure why my batter was soo runny. I added egg white powder AND cream of tartar. It took a while 20+ min to get stuff peaks which was odd. I used liquid egg whites which I've had a lot of success with before but they were slightly cold. Previously I didn't leave it out to room temp and got perfect macarons. Help!

[@PiesandTacos]

I would advise against adding egg white powder and cream of tartar, i'd pick either or and go with just one of them. But I don't know why that would make the batter runny, the only thing I can think of is that the meringue wasn't stiff enough since you've mentioned using liquid egg whites, and sometimes those can be tricky to whip properly, and even the same brand you've used before can have a batch that is just not whipping right. Did the meringue achieve really stiff peaks? And if so, do you think there's also a chance you've overmixed during the macaronage process?

[@prncess20]

@@PiesandTacos I got stiff peaks, took a while but I got them. I could have over folded.

[@fionarofl]

Can you please give us the instructions and timing and speed setting you used for your kitchen aid? I made stiff peaks but using the highest setting and i believe that caused my macronage to fail.

[@yvonneboehm6527]

She has a guide on her website where she almost explains every step

[@yvonneboehm6527]

I think its the fail baking class

[@nadyak3479]

can i do without powder eggs?

[@PiesandTacos]

yes absolutely

[@smalltrader_bigprofits]

i really wanna make this but i cant find matcha powder in the place where i live😞

[@PiesandTacos]

awe! I am sorry!

[@quynhvo5086]

I ordered mine on Amazon. Product of Japan 😄

[@user-uv9zr8qs2c]

I have no idea what bad quality of matcha you used but mine was dark green without adding any colouring, mine is imported from japan
