Discover Macarons! A macaron is a traditional
French pastry from Nancy, a commune of the
Meurthe et Moselle département, in northeastern
France. Dating back to the 18th century, the macaron
is made of egg whites, almond powder, icing sugar
and sugar. This sweet pastry came out of the French
courts' baker's oven as round meringue-like domes
with a flat base. In the early 1930 the tearoom and
pastry-shop Ladurée in Paris started selling the new
creation of Pierre Desfontaines, grandson of Louis
Ernest Ladurée: two traditional dome halves
sandwiched with a sweet filling between: the
ganache. Many cookbooks provide macaron
recipes, but the authentic Parisian macarons, with
the multifarious flavors and colors, have continued
to be in short supply, due to the difficulty in making
them well.
