Feedback: I made French macaroons and crepes for my class. The feedback came from a google form sheet so excuse the copy and paste.
- IGN rating 100 out of 10
- It was really good! I loved both the crepes and macaroons.
- Your food was good. It was sweet for me. The crepe was my favorite. I like that you can customize it with the toppings and fillings you like.
- Great food, unsure about the crepes thought, really liked it, but it was my first time having them and it was really good
- My single macaroon and whipped cream was pretty good
- I didn't have a crepe but the macaroons were amazing.
- It's not that the food was bad it's just that I don't like the foods.
- Your crapes were so amazing!!!!! I didn't love that cookies but I don't like raspberry so that is why, but otherwise your food was really good!!!
- Ign rates 10/10. Really good.
- I thought it was so GOOD I ABSOLUTELY LOVED. The macaroon i had was a little hard to bite but someone gave me theirs which was a lot easier to bite. THE CREPES WERE INSANELY GOOD THEY WERE FLAWLESS
- I always enjoy your food each week. My favorite was the steak we had a few weeks ago. But I only didn't enjoy two foods. The dumplings I am not a fan of, but I don't really like Chinese food. This week I didn't really like the food though. I just didn't enjoy it. Ever other week though was a 10/10, keep up the amazing work.
- It was amazing especially because you happened to do my two favorite foods. I was fortunate enough to get both foods and they both were really great! Even though the macaroons didn't feel the way a macaroons normally do but it still tasted wonderful and I still enjoyed the texture!
- My experience with your food was really good! I would just recommend next time you use a little less cream.
- I really like your food. I think that as this project goes on you are progressing. I think that there is a specific way to fold crepes. If there was I wish that you would've shared that with us because mine was a little bit sloppy. Otherwise it was very delicious. I don't understand why you were so worried about the macaroons because they turned out AMAZING! I've had a few macaroons before and I think that yours was one of the best ones, honestly. It had really good flavor. The only thing I would have changed is that I would make the filling a bit more creamy. Overall today was one of your most successful food presentations in my opinion. Keep up the good work!

Recipes:
French Macaroons:
- 3 egg whites at room temperature
- 1/4 cup of white sugar
- 2 cups of confectioners sugar
- 1 cup of almond flour
- pinch of slat
Buttercream filling:
- 1/4 cup of salted butter
- 3/4 cup of powered sugar
- 1 cup of fresh raspberries, worked through a sieve to extract 3 tablespoons of juice
1) Preheat oven to 300F degrees
2) Beat egg whites until foamy, then add salt and white sugar for about for 8-10 minutes. Make sure that the eggs are at room temperature. Whip until they form a peak that's upright.
3) Then add food coloring and be try to make it a shade darker as it tends to fade.
4) Sift the almond flour and powered sugar together in a separate bowl and discard the extra chunks left behind.
5) Fold the flour/ sugar mixture in with the egg white mixture. Careful when you are mixing because they can be either under mixed or overmixed. If you under mix, your macaroons will be lumpy, cracked and when baked, will be flat with no feet.
6) Transfer the batter to the pastry bag. (If you don't have a pastry bag or a piping bag, you can use a Ziploc bag and cut a hole to the size of what you need)
7) Pipe out 1 inch rounds on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Don't spray anything on the parchment paper.
8) Tap the pan hard for at least 2-3 times. This will help air bubbles come out of the macaroons and when they bake won't be cracked.
9) Let them sit out for at least 20-30 minutes or until when you place your finger on the macaroon, it won't feel sticky.
10) Bake for 20 minutes. Please do not under bake. They may look ready but trust me their not. If you take them out early, they will stick to the parchment paper instead of coming off easily.
11) Meanwhile mix the buttercream filing. Whip the butter until it is light and fluffy with an electric mixer. Then slowly add sugar. Work raspberries through a sieve with a spatula until you get 3 tablespoons of juice then add to the butter and sugar mixture.
12) Whip until it combined. Transfer to a piping bag (or Ziploc bag) and cut out a small hole.
13) Reverse the cookie shells on their backs and pipe a small amount of filling. Place another cookie on top and you have yourself a macaroon.
14) If your not eating it right away then keep them refrigerated.
Crepes
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup of milk
- pinch of salt
- 2/3 cups of all- purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1) In a blender combine the eggs, milk, flour, salt, and oil.
2) Heat a skillet and butter lightly before placing 1/4 cup of batter inside. Cook for 2-5 minutes or until golden then flip over. You can use a variety of things as toppings with the crepes such as strawberries, chocolate syrup, mangos, whipped cream, any fruit really.
