Macaron is a delicious French cream filled cookie that will take you to seventh heaven. French are extremely passionate when it comes to love, their culture and above all food. Food is an important part of their culture. This love and passion for food gave the world this alluring sweetdish.
Various bakeries claim to make a perfect Macaron, but here is what all to for in one:
- In a macaron cookie-to-filling ratio should be between 1:1 and 2:1. In many macaron there is a thin layer of filling spread upon one cookie, or a blob of filling which fails to extend to the edge of the cookie. Filling is an important part of this dish. If the filling looks skimpy, try and squeeze in a bit more. Just a bit!
- Filling is usually a flavored ganache. It is meant to be smooth, firm, light, and not sticky. It should not squish out of the cookie nor should it stick to our teeth. This doesn’t apply to all macarons like jam filled macaron or cream filled macaron.
- The texture and surface of the macaron should be very smooth. If you notice any bumps, that means either the almond was not ground finely enough or it was not sifted properly that it removed the chunks out. A chunky macaron will not taste as good as a fine & smooth macaron.
- Now let’s come to the crust of the cookie. It should be as thin as possible, meaning one should be able to bite through it without any extra efforts. Crust should provide only the most useless protection against the soft cookie layer underneath. A dry, semi-hard crust that shatters into the soft center of the cookie is not fun.
- The texture beneath the top crust should be soft, light and just a little chewy but not too mushy. If your cookie looks a little uncooked, that means it’s perfectly cooked.
- Add sugar as required, extra sweetness can supresss the real flavor of any macaron. They come in a wide variety of flavors for a reason—so you can taste the flavor. Green Apple, Lemon, Strawberry, Vanilla, Rose, Pistachio, Mango, Chocolate, Coffee and Coconut are some the unique flavors of macaron available in India.
