Comments on: Green Tea Macarons https://www.closetcooking.com/green-tea-macarons/ Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

The traditional last step for baking macarons is… immediately after you remove the pan from the oven, set the pan on a solid surface, lift the short end of the pan to about 45 degrees, lift the edge of the parchment, and pour about 1/4 c water on the pan. The water will run down, under the parchment, to the other end and steam the bottom of the macarons. I never asked the purpose, I just did as I was told. After reading your blog and remembering that I've never had an issue with them sticking, I assume that's the reason. I hope that helps!

Amazing. However neither my macarons or buttercream was as green as yours in the picture. Perhaps it has to do with the type of Green tea I used. Also my macarons were more round making it difficult to make a neat sandwich, but I may have used too much batter for each cookie. Either way they were a hit thanks for sharing this recipe.

I have seen it in some higher end grocery stores like Whole Foods but it tends to be fairly pricey there.

I’m sure there’s no need for a silicone tray- they didn’t have them in the 18th century so I’m sure we don’t need them now. But how to solve the sticking problem?

As Raquel says, you did it right the second time, by leaving them to sit for a while. In Ladurée in Paris, they are put aside for 2 days before they go on sale; the flavours are richer that way and as you found, they come easily away from your parchment paper.

Mmmm macaroons! Pardon the spelling but that’s how we spell it over here =)
