[@jenavickrey1844]

Made this 2X this week and here are my thoughts: If you do what he says, they come out perfect. Surprisingly easier than I thought…I had to fold the batter for a VERY long time to get that lava consistency, id say more than 5 minutes. If you don’t have a food processor, I recommend sifting at least ten times, maybe more, each time discarding the larger pieces left behind. Everyone who tired them said they were the best French Macarons they’d ever had. I also recommend making them on the bigger side…they seem to cook better if they’re slightly bigger than the recommended 1 inch diameter. I will make these forever, so good, great instructions, worth the money and time.

[@boxbird5723]

The factors I’ve found when making macarons that matter the most is whether you mixed your meringue stiff enough, whether your macaronage is not over/undermixed, and oven temperature. Your meringue should be as stiff as you can get it because the additional structure will give you that extra bit of control with the macaronage and make it easier to reach the desired consistency without over mixing. Don’t worry about overmixing your meringue too much, with the amount of sugar that is typically inside the egg whites, it should have the stability to continue being whipped for a long period of time. Macaronaging to the right consistency can make or break your macaron. You’re looking for a consistency where your batter no longer “plops” from your spatula and flows more smoothly like lava, forming ribbons which edges should melt a little into the rest of the batter when you drop it into the bowl. Be careful when pushing your mixture on the side of the bowl, it may get the macaronage done faster but it’s easy to accidentally overmix if you do this, which in that case your macarons will become very flat, or in worst case scenario be wrinkly and feel undercooked with no structure. Oven temperature is also important. Make sure your oven is fully preheated before putting each batch in, especially if you’ve thrown in a batch previously a few minutes ago. Unless you’re using a fancy professional oven, it is vital to do one tray of macarons at a time to ensure even temperature and consistent airflow. It will depend on your recipe and the slightly different ratios, but I’ve found that keeping my oven at 140 degrees Celsius for 17-19 minutes works the best, and it means I don’t have to set the temperature really high then turn it really low and hope my crappy home oven regulates the temperature properly.

[@anai.7889]

Thank you these tips seem very helpful!

[@prisca614]

Can I ask if you use bottom heat or fan assisted when you put it on 140? 😊

[@AtGigis]

For my standards, they turned out AMAZING! I used thee merengue recipient with some strawberry purée for the inner filling. I wasn’t able to process the almond flour because all the oils made it sort of like a paste so I just sifted it. One more thing, definitely put it in the fridge before you eat it. Right out of the oven it was sticky and chewy but after putting it in the fridge it was DELICIOUS!! ❤

10:04 Thank you for going over this crucial step. Most of the other videos I have seen skip this and the ones that go over it, don't go into the detail of this step like you do. When I made these the first time, I didn't give them enough time to sit out and form the shell and they deflated in the oven. Now whenever I make macarons I make sure to give them at least an hour to sit out before baking. Makes a MASSIVE difference in the final product.

Thank you for clarifying the "super fine" almond flour. For the price, it should be as finely ground as any other flour. It's not. Also, a good tip is, because almond flour contains almond oil, it should be stored in the fridge after opening bag. Otherwise it can go bad.

This is the only macron recipe that has come through for me. I tried without the cream of tartar as I don’t have the ingredient on hand and it was a fail.

This was very helpful, and as another commenter mentioned, much less intimidating than other videos/recipes I've seen. I made these last night and they turned out alright- I definitely blame myself. I don't quite have the eye for the right level of meringue stiffness yet, and I've always overwhipped and gotten hollow shells. It'll just be a matter of training my eyes / understanding the feel of it for myself, but I would definitely appreciate some pointers. I can get stiff peaks no problem, the meringue staying in the bowl inverted overhead is no problem, but I do believe (and the written recipe reinforces) that it needs to go a little beyond initial stiff peaks. And for my own oven, I tried 14:30 with no rotation (I was afraid I might deflate them opening and shuffling), and they were just under-baked. Next time (this afternoon, likely), I'll try maybe 16 minutes and rotate in the middle. Also, I've never made Italian buttercream because omg how intimidating! It was definitely a little stressful monitoring the mixer and the syrup on opposite sides of the kitchen (another thing I learned I can optimize). Ultimately, I don't think I got the syrup quite right- I think it wasn't quite hot enough maybe? (I may have inadvertently measured the pot instead of the syrup) and the texture of the resulting buttercream was broken to say the least. A quick google search recommended scooping a bit of the buttercream into a microwavable bowl and nuking for ~10 seconds and then re-mixing into the rest. That seemed to work really well! The finished macarons (that I had to use a bit of force and scraping to get off the silpat) are resting in the fridge now, but the one I snuck earlier was delicious. (FWIW, I replaced the vanilla extract with lemon and colored them yellow- yum!)

I gave up on making macarons years ago, but I think I’m ready to get my heart broken again.

[@mesolehelen6088]

Lol. Try it and make it when you extremely free on your time and don't have to rush anywhere. Make sure u sieve the almod flour well and follow what he does

[@imbotlol8411]

@@mesolehelen6088 is it has to be almond flour only?

[@mesolehelen6088]

@@imbotlol8411 when I guess almond is the best but have seen people also use all purpose flour but real macarons are almond flour.

Hey John what up! What is the humidity in your kitchen when you make macarons? 😌

[@kimanatriello5331]

[@Rebecca_Youssef]

I've wanted to try macarons since I was about 12, I'm 23 and I finally had them for the first time today, strawberry flavored with cream cheese filling. They're like crumbly little cake cookies, and go really well with milk. Definitely worth the wait 🍓🍓💘💘

I would LOVE to see a green tea macaron recipe! 🍵

[@indraniniyogi1914]

You are such a superb teacher.

[@shannonkrabill6120]

You could just add some green tea powder to the mixture and maybe a matcha frosting

[@TheTeaLordRBLX]

how about matcha

[@user-fj6xl8rw8j]

Thank you for the tips! I was planning on making macarons soon to use as cake toppers for my sister's birthday cake, and I'm so glad you made this video! Much love 💕

I found me my go to recipe and thank you thank you thank... I am a Baker and my pet peeve was making macaroons... Not anymore... I am so happy and excited...

[@rebaprejean3599]

Just wanted to say thank you. I have been trying to make these little teats for my family sweet tooth and your instructions did the trick. I finally got it done. They are not perfect, but I’m fairly new to baking and I’m really proud of myself. Wish I could have added a picture of them. You’re the best. Thanks 😊

[@kennarosesalverda5127]

Your guide was so helpful! Mine are in the oven and I'm feeling confident after having been too nervous to try. I have a divine lemon curd buttercream ready to fill. So excited!

[@lanadobritchanin1182]

My 9 year old granddaughter loves you! We both do but you have motivated her to bake! She just made your chocolate devils food cake and it was amazing! We are looking forward to making the macaroons! Loved your bakery tour of Paris! It’s so on her bucket list! Xoxox

[@laulau8180]

Wow I just made these and it was amazing and it was my first time making it. Plus it even took some couple attempts but at last I did it and I’m proud of it! Thank you for this recipe!👍

[@moshimosh3779]

Made macarons for the first time and only had 1 shell pop, others were perfect!! Had a little difficulty cooking it tho since the bottom was still stuck to the parchment paper after baking for 15 mins so i had to place it back in the oven. Other than that, video was super fool proof, easy to follow and very detailed.

[@sazbill1]

Thanks!

[@sazbill1]

Love your videos - I knew that when I wanted to make macarons that your channel was the place to go :)

[@AbethGomez]

The drawer with all those spices organized makes me smile! 😁... can you make a video talking about all the spices that you have in the drawer?

[@kk2dmax]

I finally got a food processor so I can make macarons! Perfect timing I can't wait to try these

[@jesaenza69]

Next episode of preppy kitchen bloopers... The macaroon batter does fall on John‘s head while testing its stiffness.
