Savory macaroons: a tendency to fall

Instead of presenting the macarons at dessert time or coffee greedy, and if we played the card of originality by inviting them to theaperitif ? Because our little marvelous and round marvels can be salty as well as sweet. And their tastes can be damn extravagant! For the hulls, nothing changes: egg white, icing sugar, almond powder and hazelnut. You can add a little salt and some herbs and especially a nice color thanks to food colors.

The ganache that garnishes macarons also allow yourself all the follies: goat cheese with a little black cherry jam or goat-chives, tapenade, cep or aubergine caviar ... Also think about playing on the colors and serve a macaroon bright red with a sweet pepper ganache accompanied by macaroon green, covered with a little paprika and stuffed with guacamole. For a small Mexican atmosphere, it's perfect. Instead of cheese, you could also have a delicious meal macaroon all white stuffed with blue cheese and pear with a macaroon all blue in Saint-Marcellin with a little jelly of quince.

 

Chic salty macaroons
For a chic evening, go for it macaroon the foie gras with a little fig jam sandwiched in two black jay shells. Believe me, it does not matter. Let's continue in chic with a macaroon smoked salmon with a little orange marmalade and if you're a fine cook, why not try it macaroon truffle star? Match the colors to your table and you'll be ready for an almost perfect dinner.
