We didn't catch the part where we added the salt and vanilla extract for the filling in the video. You can add them in the butter as you're whipping it.

Love that your recipe is less sweet!! No rest doesn’t work in my environment, you’re so lucky! But thank you for sharing a less sweet recipe for the shells!

[@jgbites7644]

You're very welcome!

Awesome video!

[@jgbites7644]

Hi thank you so much Jovina! :)

[@doremonnz]

Great video! May I know when you put in the salt and vanilla extract? They were not shown in the video. Thanks.

[@jgbites7644]

Hello! Our apologies for not getting that part in the video. Add it to the butter when you are whipping together the filling. Please let us know if you have any other questions!

You didn't rest them before bake right..?

[@jgbites7644]

Correct. Not every macaron batter needs to be rested. If the macaron batter is prepared properly and the environment is ideal, it can be baked right away. Batters that are a bit weak and underdeveloped do benefit from resting. The formation of the skin will prevent shells made with these types of batters from cracking. If you're unsure, it's best to rest your macarons about 20-30 minutes until the top is smooth.

Hi.. What kind of flour are u using when mixing with egg yolk? Tq 😊

[@jgbites7644]

All purpose flour! :)

[@delightcakes123]

It is a no rest method ?

I do not know what tar tar is, I am in Colombia, could I replace it?

[@jgbites7644]

Hi! Cream of tar tar is a powder acid that helps stabilizes the meringue (egg whites). If you do not have cream of tar tar, you can squeeze a dash of lemon juice instead. :) Hope that helps!

@@jgbites7644 other question shouldn't egg whites be left in the fridge for a while before using? because I have seen that they do so in other videos and I must say that yours is the most reliable, that's why my doubt

[@jgbites7644]

@@adrianamunozmunoz9177 Yes, some people like to age their egg whites, I find that it's unnecessary. I just use fresh egg whites, but if you would like to age your egg whites, you can definitely do that too. :)

How many macarons does this make?

[@jgbites7644]

It makes about 36 macarons. :)

[@BengalGuy77]

The coconut buttercream could've been a bit better. Seems too heavy and runny. Maybe something more purely coconut flavor

[@jgbites7644]

Everyone has different tastebuds ^-^ You can definitely swap this out with a different coconut buttercream that you like.
