  • Food-Science-Macaron
    Annie Wu ENGL1180C: Writing with Food Food Science, V.2 pg 1 Optimizing sugar ratios for macaron taste and structure Abstract: Macaron recipes are numerous and varied in their recommendations for amounts of almond flour, sugars, and egg whites. Particularly, recipes vary in their ratios of confectioners’ sugar to granulated sugar. Sugar is a key component in macaron shells as it contributes both to flavor and structure of the finished product. While it is commonly assumed that granulated sugar functions to strengthen the meringue while confectioners’ sugar contributes to lightness of texture and formation of the macaron “foot,” little empirical evidence is available to support these claims. In this study, various sugar ratios will be tested to determine effects on macaron structure and taste; macaron shells will be qualitatively evaluated based on commonly acknowledged structural features: symmetry and height of the foot, shell surface, interior structure, texture, and smoothness of bottom. In addition, shells will be assessed based on taste and functionality when assembled using a simple ganache-based filling. The goal is to determine the ideal sugar ratio that will yield macarons with an optimal structure and flavor profile. Introduction: The French macaron has garnered much popularity in recent years. A sweet, meringue-based confection, the classic French macaron recipe consists of almond flour, granulated sugar, egg whites, and confectioners’ sugar. Macarons are commonly filled with jams, ganaches, or buttercreams; the finished macaron consists of a sandwich of two shells stacked with tops facing outward and the filling acting as an edible “glue” in between, much like an Oreo.

  • You Say Macaron; I Say Delicious
    Zalleti – New World Style? We had a snow day today and traditionally on a snow day, I bake cookies. Originally, I wanted to make Lemon Semolina cookies from Gina DePalma’s book, Dolce Italiano and while I ensured that I had semolina in the house, I forgot to make sure I had lemons (and limoncello!). So instead I decided on Zalleti, these polenta cookies from Veneto, Italy. One problem, well, two, I still didn’t have lemons for the needed lemon zest, nor did I have currants! I did however have dried blueberries and oranges – so I decided to make some substitutions which I think came out pretty darn good. Ingredients 3/4C dried blueberries (original recipe was currants) 1/4C boiling water 5T brandy, divided (the original recipe uses grappa but I didn’t think Chris would appreciate me using his brand new Nonino grappa) 1 3/4C flour 1C instant or fine polenta 3/4 cup granulated sugar (plus more for sprinkling on – which I totally forgot to do on the first batch) 1t salt 1t baking powder 1 large egg 1 large egg yolk 1 stick (1/2C) unsalted butter, melted and cooled finely grated zest of 1 orange 2T milk Directions Preheat oven to 325F. Mix blueberries, boiling water and 3T brandy. Let them sit until the blueberries plump a bit and cool off. Mix the flour, polenta, sugar, salt and baking powder with the paddle attachment of your electric stand mixer until combined. Whisk egg and egg yolk. Add melted butter and orange zest. Mix this into dry ingredients and beat at medium speed until blended (it may be a bit crumbly).
