Description

These savory macaroons with fresh goat cheese and chives are an original and delicious alternative to traditional sweet macaroons. I often prepare them for cocktail parties or brunches with friends, and they always make a splash! The sweetness of the almond goes wonderfully with the fresh and slightly tart taste of goat cheese, enhanced by fresh chives. Preparation requires a little patience, especially for the crusting time of the shells, but the result is really worth it. Feel free to vary the herbs according to your tastes: thyme or rosemary also go very well with goat cheese. A delight to share without moderation!

Cooking the syrup

In a small saucepan, put 200g of sugar with 50ml of water. Bring to a boil and cook until it reaches 118°C. (This step is done outside of the Thermomix).

3

Preparation of the Italian meringue

Thermomix® Setting
3 min/Speed 3.5

Put half of the 150g of egg whites in the Thermomix bowl. Insert the whisk. Whisk the egg whites until stiff for 3 Min./Stufe 3.5. Then add the hot syrup in a thin stream, as well as a pinch of indigo blue powder dye and a pinch of lemon yellow powder dye. Continue beating for 2 Min./Stufe 3.5 until a firm and pearly meringue is obtained.

Macaronage

In a bowl, mix the rest of the egg whites (the other half of the 150g) well with the icing sugar-almond powder mixture until a homogeneous paste is obtained. Add 1/3 of the Italian meringue and beat vigorously to obtain a more flexible paste. Then gently but quickly add the rest of the meringue and macaroon. (This step is done outside of the Thermomix).

5

Dressing and crusting

Place the preparation in a piping bag, and place discs of approximately 3.5 cm in diameter on parchment paper. Let the dough discs rest in a ventilated place for about 45 minutes, the time to let them crust. (This step is done outside of the Thermomix).

Cooking the macaroons

Preheat the oven to 145°C, rotating heat position. Place the parchment paper on two or three stacked plates and bake at the bottom of the oven. Bake for 14 minutes at 145°C. (This step is done outside of the Thermomix).
