Macaron shells

ingredients preparation
  • 450g
    confectioner's sugar
  • 450g
    almond flour
  • 153g
    egg white
  • 450g
    sugar
  • 162g
    water
  • 153g
    egg white
  • 1/2spoon(s)
    cream of tartar
  • Q.S.
    crushed Graham crackers

Combine confectioners’ sugar and almond flour in a large bowl and add egg whites and set aside. Meanwhile, cook the sugar and water at 117°C. While the sugar and water is cooking, start mixing the egg whites and the cream of tartar at medium speed. When the sugar and water mixture reaches 110ºC, turn up the mixer to full power and add half of the sugar syrup to the egg whites/cream of tartar mixture. When it is combined, add the remaining half of the sugar syrup and beat at medium power until combined, then beat at full power until the whites are slightly less hot but not too cool. Add half of that meringue to the almond flour mixture, mixing well, and then add the rest using the macaronage technique until it makes a ribbon (still liquid but not too runny). Pour into macaron shapes on a sheet tray and lightly sprinkle with the crushed graham crackers. Let the macarons set up for at least a half hour until the tops of the macarons are dry enough to bake. Bake in a 160ºC  oven for 10 to 15 minutes.
