Has anyone made a dubai style macaron and if so how did u make the pistachio creme or katifeh? Really wanna make one, but stuck wondering if I should buy the pistachio creme or make it from scratch. Just seems super tedious and time consuming to make.

First post here! I got an almost perfect batch with all these colors, but when I recreated it the following day, the feet were so tall and it was super frustrating. Some came out tall, while others looked exactly how I like them. Most are full, but when the feet are tall, some end up a bit hollow. I’m trying to figure out how to get consistent, full shells with the right feet height. I’ve noticed that whipping my meringue a bit more than what “stiff peaks” usually look like to me actually helps a lot. I’ve also learned not to mix my batter until I get very thin ribbons, because that almost always gives me hollow shells. Not sure what I’m doing right — or what’s causing the inconsistency 😩 I love when they come out super matte and somewhat rounded at the top. A lot of times they’re pretty full, but look flat at the top.

Okay this is my fifth time trying macaroons but my first time using your recipe. And I'm not going to lie your recipe intrigued me because it only uses the mixer but also dumping raw egg whites into my meringue was a crazy thought. The first tray almost perfect! Slightly lopsided on the back side of the tray that was like deepest in my oven. So I decided for the second batch to rotate the tray halfway through. And as soon as I rotated the tray and set it back down every one of them cracked 😭 I also have a convection oven and I forgot to turn my fan off. Overall I'm super happy. And the fact that I can do the macronage with my mixer is crazy!!
