CHURROS

Hey guys today we're going to be talking about churros, so let's get started...

Where does it come from?:

Churros are small delicious and long beignets rolled in sugare and sometimes in cinnamon. They come straight from each Spain. Today, you can probably find them in every other country. It s topically in fairs and market that you could taste them. Their are often sold in vans shops or some sort of artisanal stand. Originally, Spanish people would eat them with a thick hot chocolate, but it depense of the people, some might like them plain...

How are they made?: 

Churros are made from a famous "pate a choux"  which is only, water, butter, pinch of salt, flour, and if you want some sugare. But instead of being cook in a oven, which will make eclairs, they are fried in oil and straight after rolled in sugare. That is why they are so crazy crunchy and soft in the inside.

Best recipe?:
The best recipe I have tried so fare was the one frame Odelice:
-100g water
- 1 pinch of salt
-100 g of flour
- a few spoon of sugare

1.boile the water with the salt. Put an aroma if you which. Put the flour in it and mix until the mixture becomes soft. Add the sugare.
2.cook your churros into a fried pan. For that put your dough into a socket pocket. Pull on the pocket and drop some in the oil. Let's cook a few seconds until they are a little brown. Take them out and role them directly in sugare.

As you see, it is a really easy recipe, hope you'll enjoy it...

MACARONS:



Hello every body, and welcome back on my blog! Today, I hope you're Hungry because we're talking about: Macarons! After have read this post, this cute and sugary confectionary won't have secrets for you anymore...

where do they come from:

First of all, macarons have been created a long time ago, in Europe, but they were not the same as they are today. They didn't have colours or particular taste. Italia, they started looks like today's macarons. They passed in France to know a huge evolution, anh have a really great success. So today, everybody thinks that macarons come from France, but we don't know where they really come from. Anyway, macarons are really famous in France, and you can actually find them in different big brand shops like Laduree.

How are they made?:

Originally, macarons are only the top part and the bottom part of the confectionary. they are biscuits, but today, everybody knows the macaroons as a little sandwich with cream in it.

As I just said, macarons are composed of two biscuits with cream in it. you usually change the crème's flavour to give different taste to your macarons. You also usually change the colour of the biscuits. 

the biscuits is made with almond powder, icing sugar, and Italian meringue. the most difficult parts in the realization, are the sirop ( to make the Italian meringue), and the cooking part. 

For the crème you can find different recipes, it could be a crème patissiere, or only a jam, depending on the flavour you choose.
