I have this macaron recipe from Francois Payard (Las V egas) that measures the ingredients in volume, which is great for people without scales. Anyways, I seem to be doing everything correctly in terms of consistency, but but I don't have any 'feet' on my macarons. They taste perfect too, just no feet. Does the sugar composition lend a hand to 'feet' production? Maybe my measurements are off? Here's the recipe: 1 cup almond flour 1/2 cup fine granulated sugar 1 cup confectioners sugar 3 egg whites 1/4 tsp cream of tartar 3/4 spoon vanilla extract food coloring to achieve desired color Instructions to mix dry ingredients and wet ingredients are the same as yours. These are to be baked with the oven heated to 400 degrees F; insert macarons; oven off for 5 min; back on to 400 for 8 more minutes. Any suggestions as to how I can develop 'feet' on my macarons?
