An introduction to the series, and links to every section.
Salud et bienvenue! I learned how to make macarons from a chef at Le Cordon Bleu Paris, and the rest is history. Read on for only what you need to know and nothing you don't. A good portion of the most popular so-called advice can hinder your success. And if French macarons should be anything, it's delicious. Not complicated.

I am a first time macaron baker and absolutely love this recipe. I was able to get it right the first time based on the way unique way you described the process…. I had tried a few other recipes but they some how didn't taste the way I remember macarons tasting. Your recipe tasted amazing. I absolutely love this recipe and will use it over and over. Thanks so much!
