Macaron

Overview

Macaron (French: Macaron, French pronunciation: [makaˈʁɔə]), also known as macaron and French pancake, is a French dessert made with egg whites, almond powder, white sugar and icing sugar. It is usually filled with fruit jam or cream between two biscuits. Its origins can be traced back to almond pancakes in the 19th century. After this sweet is baked, it is based on a round flat-bottomed shell, coated with mixed egg whites, and finally added with a hemispherical upper shell to form a round compact dessert with a rich taste. It is the most local delicacy in the Vienne province in western France. This kind of snack can also be occasionally seen in northeastern France. The word Macaron is originally French, but its actual pronunciation is closer to Macaron. Macarons are the result of transliteration using English pronunciation.

  10. Put it into a disposable piping bag, put a small round piping nozzle on the front end, and squeeze it vertically on the macaron mat. (I want to tell you here, try to squeeze the same size when squeezing. And try not to touch the circle outside the mold. Just squeeze the small circle in the middle. It will slowly spread out on its own.)
