Recipe 2: Jasmine Yu Luo Tea Macarons
Macarons are a French pastry that is known for their delicate and crispy exterior and their soft and chewy interior. By incorporating Jasmine Yu Luo Tea into the macaron shells and the filling, you can create a delicious and fragrant dessert that is perfect for any occasion.
Macaron Shell Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 egg whites
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoon loose-leaf Jasmine Yu Luo Tea, finely ground
Macaron Filling Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Jasmine Yu Luo Tea syrup (made by steeping 1 teaspoon of loose-leaf tea in 2 tablespoons of hot water and straining)
Instructions:
- In a food processor, combine the almond flour, powdered sugar, and finely ground Jasmine Yu Luo Tea. Pulse the mixture until it is well combined and there are no large clumps.
- Sift the almond flour mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl. Set aside.
- In a clean and dry bowl, beat the egg whites, cream of tartar, and granulated sugar with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the almond flour mixture into the egg whites in three additions, being careful not to overmix. The mixture should be smooth and have a flowing consistency.
- Transfer the macaron batter to a piping bag fitted with a round tip. Pipe small rounds (about 1.5 inches in diameter) onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Tap the baking sheet on the counter to remove any air bubbles. Let the macarons sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to allow a skin to form on the surface.
- Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Bake the macarons for 15-18 minutes, or until they are set and have formed a slight crust on the surface.
- Let the macarons cool completely on the baking sheet before removing them.
- To make the filling, beat the unsalted butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and Jasmine Yu Luo Tea syrup with an electric mixer on medium speed until the filling is light and fluffy.
- Pipe a small amount of filling onto the flat side of one macaron shell. Sandwich another macaron shell on top, pressing gently to spread the filling evenly.
- Repeat the process with the remaining macaron shells and filling. Let the macarons sit at room temperature for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld.
