Also, I am trying to blog about a new macaron recipe every month with the post coming out the 2nd/3rd week of the month! <br /><br />How I got started? It was certainly a process but I became fascinated with making them! They can be finicky but so worth it. Here's a blog post from Macaron Day 2015 (YES! there is such a day every year!) where I talk about how I started blogging! http://www.beyondumami.com/2015/03/macarons-why-blogging.htmlbeyondumamihttp://www.beyondumami.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6224730016590370555.post-57456605701230916882016-01-17T16:52:18.501-07:002016-01-17T16:52:18.501-07:00You should certainly try making them!

It was my first time making macarons, and I found the recipe very easy to follow. We decided not to use any dye, as we liked the look of the off-white color. A beautiful recipe that I will definitely be making again!Emily Gehrkenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6224730016590370555.post-35683962333399781122014-12-08T11:27:49.567-07:002014-12-08T11:27:49.567-07:00Thank you so much for the recipe!

Thanks so much for the comments. Yes, ...Hi Amanda,<br /><br />Thanks so much for the comments. Yes, macarons do take a bit of time to get better at but I with time it can be done! It did take me some trial and error to make decent looking macarons, to the point that it is now an addiction! I certainly encourage you to try again! Let me know how I can help you! :)<br /><br />In terms of the tea leaves, I'm using the Stash Bergamot tea bags. They aren't too chunky as they are smaller. Yup, you can add them directly to the buttercream! As the macaron rests it will seep into the buttercream and give it more flavour. <br /><br />I haven't tried steeping the tea in the water/sugar mixture but my initial thoughts would be that the flavour would be watered down. It is still worth a try, however, I am thinking that you may still need to add more flavour in after you put in the buttercream. <br /><br />Let me know if you have any further questions and I'll be happy to answer them!<br />~LillianBeyond Umamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16687826022957575968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6224730016590370555.post-23274078181409054532013-05-27T17:20:45.061-06:002013-05-27T17:20:45.061-06:00I just love your macaron posts!

But it's nice to dream.<br /><br />Are the tea leaves not chunky when you add them whole to the buttercream? I'm wondering if it's possible to steep the tea in the water/sugar mixture while it's coming up to temperature. Possible, you think? Amanda - amanda.hall713@gmail.comnoreply@blogger.com
