Macarons (spelled macaroons in English)The macaron’s origin isn’t clear, but it may have been brought to France from Italy as early as 1533 by Catherine di Medici and her pastry chefs. Macarons gained fame in 1792 when two Carmelite nuns seeking asylum in Nancy during the French Revolution baked and sold macarons in order to support themselves, thus becoming known as “the macaron sisters.” The macarons they made were a simple combination of ground almonds, egg whites, and sugar. No special flavors. No filling. Just 100% cookie.
“I think they’re the next cupcake,” says Erin Bailey of the San Francisco Baking Institute, a school for professional and novice bakers.
I AGREE^^^
I wish I can catch the net flight to paris just to try them there!
