How do you make a marzipan cake?

One is a chiffon cake. This one is a roadblock for beginners, and most people have been tortured by it for quite some time. The so-called "chiffon" is honored by its admirers as "seven crazy", because legend has it that you have to go crazy seven times to make it successful. Later, more people found, crazy seven times is not enough, so, simply called it "gas crazy".

The other one is macarons. If the chiffon is a beginner's roadblock, then macarons are many baking advanced Waterloo. Macaroon, known as Macaroon in English, is a famous French dessert, also translated as marzipan in Chinese. Its ingredients are very simple, but it is not easy to succeed, it is said that even the international dessert masters can not guarantee success every time, is "the more simple, the more difficult to do well" is another excellent example.

Ingredients: 35 grams of almond flour, 65 grams of powdered sugar, 35 grams of egg white (about 1 egg white), 15 grams of sugar, a little food coloring (can not be used)

Baking: middle of the oven, top and bottom of the fire at 180 degrees Celsius for 8 minutes, until the skirt appeared to reduce the temperature to 140 degrees Celsius and continue to bake for about 25 minutes.

Commercially available almond flour are not ground too finely, because large almonds have a high oil content, and further grinding will turn it into a paste. So before making macarons, mixing almond flour and powdered sugar before grinding will prevent the almond flour from turning into sauce, and instead get a fine mixture of almond flour and powdered sugar. Only when the particles of the powder are fine enough, the macarons will have a delicate glossy appearance.
