This video is soo helpful!! I didn't even realize I was piping the macarons wrong. I kept getting hollow shells or thin tops. Thank you so much for this video!!!

[@ShineeD]

Glad to hear that it was helpful. Thanks for sharing your feedback!!

[@GC-jl5pn]

you did a great job describing this process for a beginner. I think I can do this after watching it. Will be checking out more of your videos. Thank you!

[@ShineeD]

Thank you!

I have been having trouble getting mine to lose that little "nipple" of batter in the center, and your way of tapping from below instead of on the counter fixed it for me! Thank you for this video!

[@emilyyork2598]

These videos on macarons are super helpful! Thank you so much! I attempted my first batch of macarons this morning and they didn't go so well, so now I am rewatching all of your videos again. :)

[@ShineeD]

So happy you found my videos helpful!! I have a troubleshooting guide on my website: www.sweetandsavorybyshinee.com/french-macaron-troubleshooting-guide/ And it might help you narrow down the cause for your issue.

[@CakesandStuffbyNikisha]

I'm yet to perfect this recipe due to my ingredients being super close to expiry so I dont expect the best results. However, for some strange reason , the macarons are passable and the shells, although not as tall or as full, still taste great. I added a little vanilla flavoring as well. Just came to say thank you and I'll definitely betrying to your recipe the right way soon lol . I forgot to mention that I got it from the macaron beginners group on facebook .

Your videos are very helpful!! Is there a reason why you bake them on the back side of the pan? My oven’s pretty finicky so I was wondering if that maybe would help.

Hi chef which size do you use for piping bag and which brand name do you use please

[@claudiaroitman511]

Hi Shinee! Love your vids. I made several of your ebook fillings and I loved them all. I made your macaron recipe but my tops came out very fragile, they had nice feet but my only issue was that. I've been making macs for a long time but your recipe didn't come out any pointers? Thanks so much

[@bonplan92]

full shell have noting in relation with piping is more macaronage and bake tremp/times

I have been learning so much from your video. Thank you!! Do you use Wilton 12"or 16" piping bags?

[@ShineeD]

Thank you! I use 16" bags.

I dont have a template 😢

[@jennyhen123]

How do I find the macron template to download? I've looked everywhere I can think of and can't seem to find it. I look forward to trying my hand at macrons again. I've made them before and they tasted great, however, they didn't look as nice as I had hoped they would. Thanks!

Hello! I love your videos! Question....after piping the macarons and hitting them to get the air bubbles out how to you get the macarons on the correct side of the cookie sheet to bake them without messing them up?

[@ShineeD]

Hi, Stephanie. I bake my macarons on the back side of the baking sheet, that's why I pipe the macarons on the flipped baking sheet. If you want to bake on the normal side of the baking sheet, you would pipe them on that side. Hope this makes sense.

[@louiselemon9717]

@@ShineeD May I ask why? Is this just your preference or is there some science behind it with the heat of the oven?

[@free80889]

Is the piping bag re-usabe?

[@ShineeD]

I re-use them a few times!

[@ewcik75]

Hi Shinee. I'm from Poland and I often watch your macaron tips, they are very helpful :) I have a question for you: is it possible to make the macaroons less sweet? I would be very grateful for an answer. Greetings!

[@ShineeD]

Hi, Eve. Thank you for reaching out. And I'm so happy my videos are helpful to you. Unfortunately, you can't reduce the sugar amount any lower than my recipe without compromising the look and texture of the shells. Sugar plays a huge role for texture and structure of the cookies.

[@ewcik75]

@@ShineeD thank you very much for the answer, I will not change anything in the recipe 😊

[@ewcik75]

@@ShineeD May I have one more question😊? Can oily almond flour be dried and used?

[@louiselemon9717]

@@ShineeD Could a savory filling help cut the taste of sugar?

[@acts6591]

Thanks for the tips, I just baked a batch of macarons today and they looked perfect the outside But when I check the interior, I see the shell is hollow in some spot but most parts are full (of a single shell), I find it Abit strange, not sure what's going on. But as I piped, I notice there's bubble popping... I think this is the problem, I wonder if I've piped too close to the partchment paper or some other problems... I will try the tips next time Sorry for bothering but I have another question, how hard should the macarons shell be once done baking? When I break my macarons shell, the shell will collapse and stick to the "meat" inside, so it's harder to check if it's hollow. Is my macarons too soft? Also, after baking I shake the macarons shell, I only take it out if it only wiggles abit. Should I take it out only if it doesn't wiggle at all ? But I scare it may be overcooked and browned

[@ShineeD]

Hi there! So your macarons may be slightly underbaked, but it's hard for me to say for sure, as I'm not there myself. Also I'd advise you to work on your meringue technique. Your meringue seems to have uneven air pockets and sticky macarons sometimes are due to a weak meringue. I take out macarons when they have little barely noticeable wiggle. Also, I prefer to over-bake (not browned!) than underbake my macarons.

[@ShineeD]

So glad you find my videos helpful! Thank you for your feedback. I find baking the macarons on back side of the baking sheet helps with air circulation in my oven in my studio kitchen. However, in my home kitchen it’s better on the regular side. It’s worth the experiment.

[@user-ns6nx1ss2y]

Thank you so much and I really do appreciate the video! Turned out perfectly!
