I have too much egg white stored in my fridge, left over from chiffon cake and mango pudding making. I usually have trouble making use of left over egg white and I feel very guilty if I just pour them into the sink.
So die die must make something out of it... Macaroon is the best choice as I have yet to try it out.
Look at the result of my first attempt and you'll know I have failed. I am kinda used to the feeling - this is a normal learning path. One of the distinctive feature of Macaroon is their frilly feet. Those are absent from mine. I'm not sure why. Also the surface is supposed to be smooth and flat and yet mine look like volcano after eruption. And the belly button makes it look like a hazel nut rather than a macaroon...
My first attempt is not all bad though as the chewy texture and the rich semi sweet dark chocolate filling helps bring out the great chocolate aroma. Taste not bad at all.
Never mind, I'm sure I'll always have egg white left over and I will try again. Meanwhile, need to ponder why my macaroon looks different from others.....
