When I have a macaron or meringue related incident, the answer is usually eton mess - cream, crushed meringue/macaron and strawberries. I know the meringue is traditional, but the macaron can give it more flavour 8o) Your macarons look beautiful – the pastel coloured displays in French tea rooms are always irresistible.

Chef Nini's recipe explains that she is using the double boiler to lightly warm the egg whites. She slowly warms them in the double boiler while whipping the gently. Then test the temperature of the whites with your finger--they should be tepid (room temperature). I skipped this step and used aged egg whites instead. You can also stick them in the microwave on medium high for 10 to 15 seconds (just be careful not to cook them!). Parita– Thank you!
