Cooking time: 10 min |
- 110 g of Ile de France Goat cheese (4 oz)
- 70 g icing sugar (2 ½ oz)
- 50 g almond powder (2 oz)
- 10 g caster sugar (½ oz)
- 1 egg white
- 10 g tomato concentrate (½ oz)
- Salt
- Red food colouring (optional)

1. Preheat the oven at 140 °C (275 °F).
2. Mix the icing sugar with the almond powder and pass through a fine sieve.
3. Whip the egg whites until stiff with a pinch of salt. Add the tomato concentrate, the sugar and then the colouring in a fine rain.
4. When the whites are firm, gently add the almond powder with a spatula.
5. Pour the batter into a pastry bag provided with a smooth icing bag and make the small macarons on a sheet of greaseproof paper.
6. Let stand for 15 min. Bake for 10 min with the door ajar.
7. Once the baking is finished, pour a little water under the greaseproof paper. This will release steam that allows the macarons to take off properly.
8. Once the shells are cold, glue them in pairs with a slice of Goat cheese.
Ile de France Chèvre is a genuine traditional fresh goat cheese with a pleasant tanginess and a cream yet firm texture that enables a large variety of usages for all meals.
