I've watched literally so many macaron tutorials before and this is by far the best one. Claire is just so good at making complicated things make sense

Oh I love it when Nyt treat us with some claire content
@jazeolo
Claire is such a professional. Not just as a chef, but as a presenter and at giving clear instructions. She also gives a lot of really useful practical advice. Always a pleasure to watch. She has her own channel, by the way!
@wandererinthenight
This is a case when you realize that teaching is not an easy task and requires a very highly skilled professional. By far the best tutorial out there.
@bibelev
I love the troubleshooting part at the end, as well as the possible things that may go wrong that she pinpoints throughout the entire process. She makes it so less of an overwhelming thought of attempting to make them at home.
@anngoo8670
Love Claire content! She is such a well spoken, wonderful teacher and is so relatable at the same time!

Claire Saffitz is truly a baker of this generation. She has a way of distilling the recipes to a point where they seem approachable, and her vocabulary is descriptive enough to bring the viewer along for the ride.
@sandraengstrand2784
I absolutely loooove how Claire can explain the exact texture and consistency that’s needed. Super-helpful and also entertaining!!! 👩🏻🍳⏲️💕👍🏻

I tried making macarons twice, years ago, and they were a disaster despite all the reading I did ahead of time from great chefs. Claire’s such a great teacher that maybe, not committing, I may give it one more try because they are great “cookies” that I’d like to master. And she begins with the classic/best flavor combos.
@swankyangelo
More Claire, please.

my boyfriend and i just made a batch of the chocolate ones following this recipe, we messed up a couple things (inconsistent oven temp, poor piping skills, using 3.5oz of 70% chocolate and like a tiny piece of 90% in the ganache to try and make up for the missing bit because we forgot to adjust the amount of milk we used) and even despite all that, they turned out AMAZING!!! we got 17 instead of 23 and they were a bit wrinkly and their sizes varied a lot more than claire's, but they were definitely recognizable as macarons and had the foot, and tasted SO good. i shared them with my roommates :)
@annanamoose9943
a failed macaron shell is still a damn good cookie, this I've learn through experience 😁

The intermittent soft jazz in the background suggests that this is a relaxing activity. Which it is definitely not.
@danbev8542
I love, love, love these Claire videos of classic advanced foods! She breaks things down to look much less intimidating. Such a great teacher! Thanks NYT and Claire!

I made the chocolate macarons this weekend as my 5th attempt at making macarons (using a few different YouTube recipes). These were, I'm pleased to say, the closest I've come so far to getting the shells right. Granted, some of the shells cracked and I accidentally piped them a bit big (note to self: use a smaller piping tip to help control the flow of the batter next time) BUT I did have mostly smooth tops and ruffled feet!! Also that dark choc ganash with the espresso coffee - 👌 hmm, crazy delicious next to the sweetness of the macaron shells. Now I'm keen to try the other two flavours!
@AmarEnergy
Claire is such a wealth of knowledge! I love how she can take an otherwise quite complicated technique and break it down to the fundamentals.She has been a huge influence on me upping my baking game to more complicated recipes and methods. I have learned so much about baking from this woman!
@TamaraKane
I'm glad you said macarons and not macaroons because macaroons are a completely different cookie made with coconut and they require much more chewing. I love both, but macarons are more delicate. I loved the show on Hulu called "The Great," a funny soap opera version of Catherine the Great; but, they kept calling French macarons "macaroons." So, if anyone else has been saying it wrong, you're not alone! And I don't have a major problem with it or anything like that, but for the sake of everyone's cookie enjoyment, I hope you'll all get to try both kinds of cookies in your lifetime so you can see what they have in common, and how they're very different. 😊
@JimSlaughterOC
The quality of this video is amazing! Congrats to Claire and her hard-working video editors! Thanks!
