After reading a few articles championing the use of the Italian method in making macarons, I got curious and decided to try it myself. The Italian method supposedly results in more stable macarons and more consistent results. Now who doesn’t want consistently pretty macarons? So I dabbled in using the Italian method of making macarons a few days ago.
This macaron series has been in the works for months! Only because I was too jaded and lazy to bake the last batch. These blueberry macarons gave me the idea for this series because they were kind of a disaster. Pretty as they are on these photos (they have "feet" and smooth tops), they actually have a few secrets that I need to tell you about.
