When you get them right, seeing those perfect little shells is just bliss (the sense of accomplishment is actually better than eating them). <br /><br />What sort of problems have you had with your macs?<br /><br />Eventually I am going to do a Maca-wrongs guide where I intentionally try to recreate all the possible fail states of the mac (no feet, over mixed, cracked/hollow shells, etc). <br /><br />I'm waiting to get the time to do so, so I can better advise folks on how to troubleshoot their problems. <br /><br />Maybe I should finally do so this week....Ms. Humblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06960224421093634330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434548298509198554.post-32752867513571230452010-02-21T18:36:12.014-08:002010-02-21T18:36:12.014-08:00You make such wonderful macarons!

Our last apartment didn't have a microwave fume hood over the oven and there was no counter space I was willing to waste on a stand alone one, so we did without, and the measuring cup trick is how I melted small amounts of butter. <br /><br />I don't know if that would work for your sugar here?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434548298509198554.post-815870150234074052010-02-20T01:20:42.945-08:002010-02-20T01:20:42.945-08:00Those look super festive!!!Those look super festive!!!Julia, the Thanksgiving Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03542064466882299908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434548298509198554.post-77695995899671320982010-02-20T01:14:39.757-08:002010-02-20T01:14:39.757-08:00awww these are so pretty!

That means I get to hang out, even briefly, with the 30 or so chefs participating in the Miami event before 2,000 hungry people descend and get in the way of my slack jawed gawking. Movie stars and rock musicians? Meh. Famous chefs?
